Andrew "Andy" Garner (born March 8, 1966 in Stonebroom, Derbyshire) is a retired English professional football player. He is now first-team coach at Burton Albion.

Garner began his career as an apprentice with Derby County in 1983. He scored some vital goals in the Rams' Division Three promotion season of 1985-86. He possessed excellent ball skills for quite a tall player and could always score goals.

In August 1988, Garner joined Sam Ellis's Blackpool for £75,000. He made his debut on opening day, August 27, in a 1-1 draw at Chester City. Jimmy Mullen took over the manager's seat for the following season and moved Garner into a central-midfield position, where he went on to enjoy more success in a partnership with Paul Groves, although he couldn't help the Seasiders avoid relegation to the Football League's basement division.

After Blackpool's failure in the Division Four playoff final of 1991, Garner was the subject of intense transfer speculation, and it seemed almost certain that he would leave for pastures new. However, the proposed move fell through and he remained at the club for another season, which saw another Wembley playoff final, this time ending in success for Blackpool.

Garner managed to make only seven appearances during the 1992-93 season before joining Gresley Rovers.
