Andrew Thomas (born 14 December 1977) is an English footballer, currently a defender with Welsh side Airbus UK.

Thomas was born in Chester, and began his career as a trainee with Wrexham, playing in the 1995-96 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup against FC Petrolul Ploieşti. He turned professional in August 1996, but failed to make any further first team appearances and was released in 1997.

He joined Connah's Quay Nomads and began a lengthy career in Welsh football. He moved to Cwmbran Town in the 1999-2000 season, but played just twice before returning to Connah's Quay. In 2001 he joined Newtown, moving to Airbus UK in August 2003. At the end of this first season with Airbus, they won the Cymru Alliance and with it promotion to the Welsh Premier League.

He spent the 2005-06 season on a dual registration with both Airbus UK and Cymru Alliance side Halkyn United.

In November 2007, Thomas was appointed as assistant manager of Airbus UK.[1]
