Gordon William Cattrell (born 18 December 1954) is an English former professional footballer who made 102 appearances in the Football League playing as a midfielder for Darlington. He began his professional career as an apprentice with Leeds United, but never played for the first team, and after leaving Darlington he played non-league football for Bishop Auckland.[2]

As a youngster, Cattrell represented Durham schools at under-15 level, and made four appearances for the England Schools under-15 team, including against West German Schoolboys at Roker Park, Sunderland, in May 1970.[3][4]
