Andy Todd

Middlesbrough

Born in Derby, Derbyshire, Todd attended Hermitage Comprehensive School (Chester le Street) playing in the same school football team as Michael Barron, with both players being taken on as youth players at Middlesbrough. He was initially a trainee at Middlesbrough and made his debut in 1992. Todd was loaned to Swindon Town shortly before leaving Boro in August 1995 to join Bolton Wanderers for a transfer fee of £250,000, where he joined his father, who was managing the Trotters.

Bolton Wanderers

Todd scored on his league debut for the club, losing 5–2 against Liverpool on 23 September 1995. However, he had a slow start to his Bolton Wanderers' career, due to competitions and was demoted to the club's reserve team. But Todd soon had a first team run-ins, playing in the midfield position. However, he suffered ankle injury that affected most of his 1995–96 season. By the time Todd returned from his injuries, Bolton Wanderers was already relegated to Division One and scored on his return in the last game of the season, losing 2–1 against Arsenal. At the end of the 1995–96 season, he made thirteen appearances and scoring two goals in all competitions. The start of the 1996–97 season saw Todd out with a minor injury. On 7 September 1996, he made his first appearance of the season, coming on as a 73rd-minute substitute, in a 5–2 loss to Southend United. Since returning from injury, Todd found his playing time, coming from the substitute bench. By…

Non-playing coaching staff

On 26 April 2014, it was announced that Todd was appointed as the assistant manager to Warren Feeney at NIFL Premiership club Linfield in Northern Ireland, effective on 1 May 2014. Todd retained that position when David Healy was appointed the new manager of Linfield on 14 October 2015, as Feeney quit the job to become the assistant manager of Newport County. On 15 January 2016, Warren Feeney was appointed as the manager of League Two club Newport County with Todd appointed as assistant manager. A positive start saw Newport gain 21 points from the first 12 games, but results later worsened. Newport finished the season in 22nd place in League Two, avoiding relegation. Feeney and Todd were dismissed by Newport on 28 September 2016 with Newport County bottom of League Two having gained just 6 points from their first 9 matches of the 2016–17 season. From October 2016 to June 2018, Todd was the assistant under Gary Bowyer at Blackpool. In March 2019, Todd was appointed as the assistant manager of Bradford City, again under Bowyer. Todd left Bradford City in May 2019, following the club's relegation to League Two. In January 2020, Todd was appointed as the assistant manager of Bulgarian side Pirin Blagoevgrad again, under Feeney. He quickly settled in the country despite the pandemic. However in October, Todd left the club, "citing personal reasons".

His father is former Derby County and England defender Colin Todd who was manager of Middlesbrough when Andy made his debut. He spoke about his relationship with his father while they were at Bolton Wanderers. Todd is married to his wife, Dawn, and together, they have three children. Todd and his wife took part in a charity organisation.
