Jason Tindall (15 November 1977 in London, England) is a former English football player, and the current assistant manager of AFC Bournemouth, where he spent most of his playing career.

Playing career

Tindall was an apprentice at Charlton Athletic, but was released and joined Bournemouth on a free transfer in 1998 as a midfielder, becoming a regular in the side after being switched to central defence when Sean O'Driscoll replaced Mel Machin as manager.

On 24 April 2004, in a 1-0 win at Peterborough United F.C., Tindall made his last appearance for the Cherries for 18 months, when a knee injury reoccurred. After missing the entire 2004/5 season, he resorted to surgery in the United States with specialist surgeon Dr Richard Steadman, returning to action on 2 January 2006 as an 86th minute substitute in the Cherries 1-1 draw with Scunthorpe United F.C. at Dean Court.

Released by Bournemouth in the summer of 2006, after a trial at Wycombe Wanderers, [citeweb|url=http://www.chairboys.ndirect.co.uk/onthenet/news0506/july2006.htm|title=July 2006 - Triallists Ditched|publisher=chairboys.co.uk|date=July 25, 2006|accessdate=2008-01-28] Tindall joined local side Weymouth as a utility player.

Managerial career

Tindall was appointed as player-manager of Weymouth in January 2007, but was sacked a year later in January 2008. In light of a 2007/08 season record of only three wins, leaving the club in 19th, 5 points off of the relegation zone.
