Adrian Littlejohn
| Date of birth | 26 September 1970 |
| Place of birth | Wolverhampton |
| Nationality | English |
| Weight | 70 kg |
| Height | 1.75 m |
| Position | Forward |
A skillful striker who can dribble at great pace and possesses a powerful shot.
Undoubtedly a naturally gifted player, Adrian continued to be something of an enigma for Bury in 2000-01.
He showed some impressive early-season form, netting four goals, but then his performances seemed to dip and he spent much of the second half of the campaign on the subs' bench.
He is a very quick and direct player with the skill and pace to move past defenders with ease.
Adrian had a spell in China with Zhe Ngzhov after leaving Sheffield United in December 2001.
He joined Port Vale in February 2003 with a contract to the end of the season when it was duly extended for a further year.
Adrian joined Lincoln City in August 2004 with a six-month contract before joining Rushden & Diamonds in January 2005 with a contract to the end of the season.
He then joined Mansfield Town in September 2005 with a three-month contract.
