Nicholas Anthony Montgomery (Born October 28, 1981 in Leeds, England) is a football player who plays in a midfield position for Sheffield United.

He came through the youth ranks at Bramall Lane, before making his debut at Carrow Road against Norwich City on October 21, 2000, and has now established himself as a regular in the first team with almost 200 League and Cup appearances for the Blades.

A hard-working attacking midfielder with the ability to run at defenders, his foraging down the flanks often creates openings for his colleagues.

He was an integral member of the 2005/06 squad that saw the Blades being promoted back to the FA Premier League. As a result of his hard work over the season he was runner-up to Phil Jagielka in the club's Player of Year awards.

A Scotland U21s international, Nick is also used as a man-marker on occasions.
