Andrew (Andie) Newton was an English footballer.
Newton played for Romiley St. Chad's, Park Albion, Marple Amateurs, Newton Heath, Hyde United and Manchester City, also guesting for Burnley before joining Port Vale as a guest in April 1919. He appeared fairly regularly in the war leagues and during the regular leagues in next season. In October 1919 Vale were re-elected to the Football League and Newton and Tom Holford battled for the position on the left of midfield, by February 1920 Holford had won this battle. Newton was released in May 1921 and returned to Hyde United, later moving on to Ashton National Gas.[1]
