Carl Saunders (born 1964-11-26) is a former professional footballer, who spent most of his career at Stoke City and Bristol Rovers.
During his time at Bristol Rovers, he was nicknamed Billy Ocean due to the fact he slightly resembled the singer. After leaving Bristol Rovers he had brief spells as a non-contract player with Oxford United and Walsall, before moving to Malta to join Hamrun Spartans.
After retiring from playing, Saunders joined Avon and Somerset Constabulary as a community affairs co-ordinator, and on 17 October 2006, he returned to Bristol Rovers in a voluntary capacity as the club's Community Liaison Officer.
