Andy Collett (born 1973-10-28) is an English former professional footballer, who played as a goalkeeper.

Collett, son of a Middlesbrough demolition worker, began his career at his home-town club, Middlesbrough, for who he made only two first-team appearances. He then moved south to Bristol Rovers, where he remained for five years before moving on to Darlington. He stayed at Darlington for five years, before his career was eventually cut short though injury.^{[citation needed]} His most memorable year was the year 2000. Collett played a vital role in helping Darlington reach the Third Division playoff final, where they lost to Peterborough. He was rewarded for a consistent season and some extravagant saves when he received the Third Division Goalkeeper of the year award for the 1999/2000 season.^{[citation needed]} Andy Collett then went onto become goalkeeping coach of Darlington for two years before linking up with Mark Proctor at Livingston, when he was made boss of the Scottish club in the summer of 2007.
