Alan Nigel Kernaghan (born 25 April 1967) is a professional football player and coach.
As a player he was a defender from 1985 to 2006, notably in the Premier League for Manchester City and in the Football League for Middlesbrough, Charlton Athletic, Bolton Wanderers and Bradford City. He played the final nine years of his career playing in Scotland with St Johnstone, Brechin City, Clyde, Livingston, Falkirk and Dundee. He was capped 26 times by Republic of Ireland, scoring one goal.
During his coaching career, Kernaghan has managed Scottish clubs Clyde and Dundee, and Glentoran in the Northern Irish league, which he resigned from after an embarrassing 3-2 defeat to struggling Championship side Annagh United. He has also worked for other clubs in a variety of coaching roles.
Born in Otley, West Yorkshire, England, he moved with his family to Bangor, County Down at the age of four. Kernaghan represented Northern Ireland at schoolboy level and the Republic of Ireland at senior level. Kernaghan began his playing career as an apprentice at Middlesbrough, and went on to make 212 appearances during an eight-year period, scoring 16 goals.
