The Chicago Fire has waived backup goalkeeper Nick Noble.

The Fire drafted Noble from West Virginia University in the first round (7th overall) of the 2007 MLS Supplemental Draft.

While he did not appear for the Fire in MLS action during his two and a half seasons with Chicago, Noble appeared in the third round Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup win over the Cleveland City Stars last season, as well as international exhibitions against Club America, Veracruz of the Mexican Primera A, Everton FC of the English Premier League, and Wisla Krakow of the Polish First Divsiion.

Noble played in 17 Reserve Division matches in his first two seasons with the club.

The Fire returns to action Saturday in the final match of SuperLiga group play facing Tigres UANL at Toyota Park at 7 p.m.
