Stuart Thomas Myall (born 12 November 1974) is an English former professional football defender and current teacher. He began his career in the Football League at Brighton & Hove Albion and after an unsuccessful spell at Brentford, he dropped into non-league football.
Myall grew up in Eastbourne, East Sussex and was head boy at Cavendish School in the town.
Born in Eastbourne, Myall joined the Brighton & Hove Albion's Centre Of Excellence at age 11. He made his debut for the club during the 1992–93 season and made seven Division Two appearances. He signed his first professional contract in April 1993. He gradually broke through into the first team, making 13 league appearances during the 1993–94 season and 27 in 1994–95, scoring his first two Brighton goals during the latter campaign. In the 1995–96 season, Myall made 33 league appearances and scored two goals. He was released by manager Jimmy Case at the end of the season, after the club's relegation to Division Three was confirmed. During his time at the Goldstone Ground, Myall made 93 appearances and scored four goals. In 2002, Myall recalled that he "had a great time at Brighton. It was what I always wanted to do and I was at the Albion from a very young age. I had a really fantastic time and I was disappointed when I was released in 1996 because I had played quite a few games for the club. But we got relegated and Jimmy Case wanted to bring in his own players".
