Description

Simon Edward Osborn (born 19 January 1972) is an English former football player and football manager. A midfielder, he played 395 league and cup games in a 17-year career in the English Football League.

He began his career with Crystal Palace, helping the club to the First Division title in 1993–94 before he made a £90,000 move to Reading. He helped the "Royals" to a second-place finish in the First Division in 1994–95, though they were then beaten in the play-off final. He made a £1.1 million move to Queens Park Rangers in July 1995, before being sold on to Wolverhampton Wanderers for £1 million in December 1995. After six years and 185 appearances at Molineux, he was loaned out to Tranmere Rovers before switching to Port Vale in September 2001. He moved on to Gillingham the following month before he joined Walsall in July 2003.

He joined Hereford United in the summer of 2006 before moving into non-League football with Bromley. He helped the club to win promotion out of the Isthmian League in 2007 and briefly served the club as manager in 2008. He then joined Croydon Athletic before scoring the winning goal for Cray Wanderers in the Isthmian League Division One South play-off final. In 2010, he became a player-coach at Erith & Belvedere. He joined the coaching staff at Margate in 2013 and was appointed joint manager with Craig Holloway in April 2013 before losing his job eight months later.
