Scott Nigel Kenneth Wiseman (born 9 October 1985) is a former professional footballer who played as a defender, usually being deployed as a right-back.

[2] Born in England, Wiseman represented the country at youth level before declaring for the Gibraltar national team, for whom he made 38 appearances over a ten-year period.

[9][10] He made an increased number of appearances for Hull City in 2005–06, but then spent the first half of the 2006–07 season on loan to Rotherham United.

[11] Wiseman made his Rotherham United debut, in the opening game of the season, coming on as a substitute in the second half, in a 1–0 loss against Brighton & Hove Albion.

[13] After making eighteen appearances for the club, where Wiseman was featured in the first team regularly, his loan spell at Rotherham United came to an end in February 2007.

[16] While on loan at Darlington, Wiseman made ten appearances for them before returning to his parent club, with Manager Dave Penney's chance of keeping him is unlikely.

[26] In a match against Luton Town on 22 November 2008, he set up a goal for Lee Thorpe to score the opener, in a 2–0 win.

[32] However, in the unexpected turn of an event, Wiseman re-joined the club on 9 June 2009 after Simon Ramsden left Rochdale for Bradford City.

[39] After a month out, due to a stomach muscle problem,[40] he made his return to the first team on 16 October 2010, in a 2–1 loss against Bristol Rovers.

[44] Upon joining the club, newly Manager Steve Eyre stated he allowed the pair to leave, refusing to intervene into staying at Rochdale.

[45] Wiseman made his Barnsley debut, in the opening game of the season, making his first start as a right-back and played the whole minutes, in a 0–0 draw against Nottingham Forest.

[53] Wiseman returned to the squad as captain after spending two weeks as an unused substitute, in a 2–2 draw against Leicester City on 8 December 2012.

[57][58] In comparison to his somewhat average performances as a centre half under the Hill regime, Wiseman made the right wing back position his own and became an integral part of the 2013 Reds side that narrowly avoided relegation to League One.

The next day, Wiseman made his Preston North End debut, coming on as a substitute in the second half, in a 2–0 loss against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

In the 2014–15 season, Wiseman found himself competing with a right-back role with Calum Woods, which resulted him on the substitute in number of matches.

[70] Despite suffering from injuries[71][72] and international commitment,[73][74] Wiseman helped the club gain promotion to the Championship and scored two times in thirty appearances in all competition.

[79] Wiseman continued to remain in the first team despite being dropped to the substitute in handful of matches,[80][81] as he competed with a right-back position with Jordan Clarke.

In the 2016–17 season, Wiseman continued to compete with Clark over a right-back position in the first team[88] and made his return to training in the pre-season.

[89] Wiseman made his first appearance since returning from injury, coming on as a late substitute, in a 3–1 win against Bristol Rovers in the opening game of the season.

[103][104] In March 2023 Wiseman put his international playing career on hold to take charge of the Gibraltar national under-16 football team in their upcoming UEFA Development Tournament in Bulgaria.
