David McNab (2 December 1897 – unconfirmed) was a Scottish footballer who played as a defender for Portsmouth, Fulham and Coventry City. He played in 158 matches in the Football League for Fulham (169 in all competitions), scoring 21 goals, between 1925 and 1930.[3][2] He joined Coventry in summer 1930 for a fee of £500, and made nine appearances for the club.[4][2] He also played for Newarthill Thistle, Llanelly, and Walton-on-Thames.[5]

His older brother Jock played for Liverpool and was capped once for Scotland.[6] The siblings faced each other when Fulham beat Liverpool 3–1 in the 1925–26 FA Cup Fourth Round;[7] they were later in opposition in the Third Division South after Jock joined Queens Park Rangers.
