Club career

Early career

Noble rose through the academy at Sunderland and entered the reserve team in 2009–10, whilst continuing to impress for Kevin Ball's youth side.

Carlisle United (loan)

Taken in on loan at League One side Carlisle United in January 2011,[3] he made his debut for the club in a 4–0 win over Bristol Rovers on 15 January. After his loan deal was extended until the end of the season,[4] he won his first league start on 22 January, helping Carlisle to a 1–0 win over at Notts County at Meadow Lane.

His impressive performances for the Cumbrians impressed Abbott enough to take Noble on a six-month loan deal. He joined them permanently on 12 January 2012

Notts County

On 3 June 2014, Noble joined Notts County on a two-year on a free transfer following his release by Carlisle United.[5]

On 11 August 2015, he scored a brace in a 2–1 upset win at Championship side Huddersfield Town in the first round of the League Cup, after Notts had been trailing 0–1.[6]

Forest Green Rovers

In June 2016, Noble signed for National League club Forest Green Rovers on a two-year contract.[7] He made his debut for the club on 16 August 2016 in a 1–0 away win at Woking where he provided the assist for the winning goal.[8] He scored his first goal for the club on 3 September 2016 in a 2-1 away win against Chester.[9]

On 14 May 2017, he captained Forest Green to promotion to the Football League for the first time in the club's history in the 2016-17 National League play-off final at Wembley Stadium with a 3-1 win over Tranmere Rovers.[10]
