Alan Shoulder (born 4 February 1953) is an English football manager and former player.
A striker, he began his career with Leeholme Juniors, before joining Bishop Auckland in 1972. In 1977, he joined Blyth Spartans and featured in their run to the fifth round of the FA Cup. In December 1978, he was transferred to Newcastle United for £20,000, where he scored 38 goals in 117 games. In 1982, he joined Carlisle United on a free transfer, then in 1985 joined Hartlepool United, again on a free transfer. An eye injury forced him to retire as a professional player in December 1988, but he continued playing with Ferryhill Athletic. He later became assistant manager at Gretna, and then a coach at Newcastle Blue Star.[3] He has since managed several clubs, including Coundon,[3] Crook Town,[4] Bishop Auckland,[5] Willington,[5] West Auckland Town[6] and Blyth Spartans.[7]
