Sam Ashton (born 9 October 1985) is an English footballer who currently plays as a goalkeeper for English non-league side F.C. United of Manchester.

Football career

Ashton began his professional football career at Bolton Wanderers and, on 7 January 2006, was named as the substitute keeper for Bolton's FA Cup Third Round tie against Watford. However, he came on for the last few minutes of the match as a striker, replacing Jared Borgetti.

Described by his boss as "the best and most staunch Bolton Wanderers fan in our camp", then Bolton manager Sam Allardyce explained: "He wears a massive tattoo with the club badge on it. He comes from the heart of Bolton and he loves the club so much and is so passionate.

"He just asked if he could get on for a couple of minutes. We were always ready to play him outfield as he has played at right-back and centre-back for the youth team.

"I thought it would be a perfect late Christmas present." Fact|date=March 2007

Towards the end of the 2005–06 season he was told that he was free to leave Bolton and spent considerable time on trial with non-league sides such as Cambridge United and Radcliffe Borough.

On 26 July 2006, he made his debut for FC United of Manchester in a friendly against Bury. He has since made his competitive debut for FC United against St Helens Town, in the first game of the 2006–07 North West Counties Football League Division 1 season, keeping a clean sheet with an impressive performance in a 2-0 victory for the away team, played at Knowsley Road.
