Simon Coleman (born 13 June 1968) is an English former professional footballer who played as a defender.
He notably played in the Premier League for Sheffield Wednesday and Bolton Wanderers and in the Football League for Mansfield Town, Middlesbrough, Derby County, Wolverhampton Wanderers, Southend United and Rochdale.
He played 475 competitive games in English football and appeared in the Premier League for both Sheffield Wednesday and Bolton Wanderers. His career at Bolton may have reached greater heights in the Premier League had his leg not been broken in a tackle by Derby County's Marco Gabbiadini in February 1995.
He has previously worked at a football academy in Mansfield. He now works at Garibaldi School as a Physical Education Teacher.
