David Keith Woodcock (born 13 October 1966) is an English former footballer who made 27 appearances in the Football League playing as a midfielder for Darlington in the mid-1980s.

Life and career

Woodcock was born in Shardlow, Derbyshire.^[1] He began his football career as an apprentice with Sunderland, but left the club without having played for the first-team, and signed for Darlington, newly promoted to the Football League Third Division, in August 1985. Over the next two seasons, he played 27 league matches, around half of which as a substitute, and scored twice.^[1] At the end of his second season, Darlington were relegated back to the Fourth Division, and Woodcock left.

He played non-league football for clubs including Newcastle Blue Star,^[3] North Shields, Bridlington Town,^[4] with whom he won the FA Vase and the Northern Premier League First Division title in 1993,^[5] and Bishop Auckland.

His playing career was ended by a badly broken leg in the mid-1990s, and he resumed working in football in 1998 as manager of Darlington Railway Athletic,^[6] where he stayed for ten of the next eleven years.^[7]
