Alan Gray (born 2 May 1974) is an English former professional footballer and highly regarded youth coach, who played for Doncaster Rovers, Darlington and Carlisle United in the Football League and Queen of the South in the Scottish Football League.


Coaching career

Alan forged a formidable coaching partnership with Stuart Woodward at stanwix warriors. His coaching style places a strong emphasis on defence and hard work. Training sessions would often open up with a classic Rondo before smaller box areas marked out with cones, often incorporating drills where ‘scanning’ for opponents is required.
