James Beaumont (born 11 November 1984) is an English former professional footballer who played in midfield. Beaumont joined Nottingham Forest from Newcastle United in 2003, along with Ross Gardner. Unlike Gardner, however, Beamount was unable to break into the first team, and his only league appearance was during a loan spell with Darlington. During the January 2007 transfer window, he was released by Forest and signed for Northwich Victoria; however, he departed after only two months, released on 19 March.

Following his release from Northwich, Beaumont retired from football to concentrate on journalism, later writing for the Nottingham Forest match-day programme.

After football

Beaumont graduated from Staffordshire University with a degree in Professional Sports Writing and Broadcasting in the summer of 2008.

Further to his interest in journalism, he also took an interest in Minor Counties cricket, becoming an ice cream vendor at matches on occasion.
