Stuart Munro (born 15 September 1962 in Falkirk) is a Scottish former professional football player who is best known for his time with Rangers.
Munro was signed from Alloa Athletic and made his top team debut for the Rangers against Dundee on 25 February 1984, aged 21. The game ended in a 3–1 win. He played a further six seasons before with Rangers before being sold to Blackburn Rovers for £350,000.
He immigrated to Australia at the end of his career, appearing for Sydney United in the National Soccer League in what would be his final season of professional football.
Upon retirement, he followed a coaching path, taking the reins at NSL clubs Gippsland Falcons, Carlton, Parramatta Power and South Melbourne.
With the end of that competition, Munro remained in Melbourne and continues to coach in the Victorian Premier League, where he has had good results with Oakleigh Cannons and most recently with Dandenong Thunder, where at the half-way point of the 2009 season, he had the club 7 points clear at the top of the premiership table.
