Ross Gardner (born 15 February 1985) is a football player who currently plays for Nottingham Forest.
Gardner started his career off with Newcastle United as a youth, but the midfielder knew himself that he would have trouble getting in to the first team.
He made the switch to Forest with Newcastle youth team-mate James Beaumont after a bust-up with coach Peter Beardsley during the late stages of the 2004-2005 season as a 18 year old. Unlike Beaumont, Gardner managed to get into the first team and has made a few appearances. He is highly skillful but has been mostly used as a substitute. Beaumont had failed to do what his team mate did and was loaned out to Darlington during the 05-06 season.
He is often mistaken for Kris Commons in physical features.
He is now a permanent member of Port Vale Football Club following a two month loan spell. He was released by Forest in the 2007 January transfer window.
