Errol 'Emau' Rudolph Emanuelson (born April 16, 1953) is a retired Surinamese footballer who played as a forward for SV Robinhood in the Hoofdklasse, and for the Suriname national team. He also spent a loan spell in Belgium playing for Sint-Niklaas.
Emanuelson began his career in Nieuw Nickerie, Suriname, in the youth ranks of Santos at age 14. In 1970, he moved to Paramaribo to play in the youth teams of Tuna with whom he won the youth championship. In 1975, he made the move to SV Robinhood where he played as a forward forming the attack of Robinhood together with Rinaldo Entingh and Roy George. In 1976, he made a name for himself in a friendly fixture against Dutch club Ajax while Robinhood were on a tour of the Netherlands. He helped Robinhood to win three national titles in 1975, 1976 and 1979, and was the league top scorer for three consecutive seasons in 1976, 1977 and 1978. He also helped Robinhood to placement in the CONCACAF Champions' Cup finals, where they would finish as runners-up twice, conceding to C.D. Águila from El Salvador in 1976 and Mexican side Club América in 1977. On 30 July 1979 Robinhood were granted permission by the SVB to loan Emanuelson to Belgian side Sint-Niklaas where he played for one season.
