Andy Morris is a retired footballer. He currently works as Chesterfield's Football in the Community Officer, having replaced Nicky Law in summer 2000. He played his last competitive football for Hucknall Town.He was nicknamed "Bruno" by Chesterfield fans for an alleged resemblance to the British boxer Frank Bruno.
He is most fondly remembered at Saltergate, where urban legend states he arrived from Rotherham for a fee of £500 and a bag of footballs. In the 1996/97 season, Morris was part of Chesterfield's historic FA Cup Semi Finalists - scoring the first goal, and winning a penalty for the second. Morris' relaxed celebration after scoring at Old Trafford against Premiership Middlesbrough is his most widely remembered moment. Fact|date=September 2008
The following season, Andy Morris was granted a testimonial match, versus Nottingham Forest. Due to persistent injury problems, he left Saltergate shortly after, but has remained in the hearts of supporters ever since. Fact|date=September 2008
