Ryan Harding (born April 27, 1984 in Edinburgh) is a Scottish semi-professional footballer who plays for Civil Service Strollers as a defender.
Over the course of his career he played for Livingston, Greenock Morton and East Stirlingshire before leaving for Malta. On his return he played for Alloa and Peterhead, before joining Civil Service Strollers in 2013.
Harding began his senior career with Scottish Premier League club Hibernian. From there he moved into another SPL side, Livingston. Ryan made just three league appearances and one other appearance in the C.I.S. Insurance Cup for Livingston. This appearance was against his future club Greenock Morton. During a match played in terrible weather conditions at Almondvale Stadium, he scored a diving header in to his own net that was strangely ruled out for offside.
Ryan signed on at Cappielow towards the end of the 2004–05 season on a short-term deal. He signed a longer deal at the start of the next season and continued to play for the club. He plays in the centre back position and formed partnership with fellow centre back Stewart Greacen, although was sidelined by the arrival of Dominic Shimmin for season 2007–08. Harding suffered a serious injury in October 2008, and missed the rest of the season due to it. He was released in November 2009.
