Alan Combe (born 3 April 1974 in Edinburgh) is a Scottish professional footballer and current first choice goalkeeper for Kilmarnock in the Scottish Premier League.

Combe started his career at Cowdenbeath, and has also played for St Mirren, Dundee United and Bradford City.

Combe has been named in the Scotland squad on a few occasions but has not so far picked up a cap. Combe did however appear for the Scotland Futures team against Poland at his home ground, Rugby Park in 2005, playing in the second half of a 2-0 victory.

He is often remembered for an error in a game against Aberdeen F.C. in April 2007, where he threw the ball out only for it to hit Aberdeen striker Darren Mackie, who was jogging away from goal, on the back of the head, thus causing the ball to loop over Combe and into the corner of the net.
