Chris Greenacre
| Date of birth | 23 December 1977 |
| Place of birth | Halifax |
| Nationality | English |
| Weight | 80 kg |
| Height | 1.80 m |
| Position | Forward |
Greenacre started the 2000-01 season in spectacular style for Mansfield Town with an amazing goal in the opening game at Cheltenham Town when he chipped the ball over the home keeper's head from inside the centre circle.
This was just the start as he scored goals almost at will throughout the campaign including a hat-trick in the 5-1 home win over Halifax Town in September, finishing up as the Stags' leading scorer.
He is a pacy hard-working striker who finds space in the box and has a good eye for goal.
Greenacre' contract at Tranmere Rovers was extended to June 2009 in April 2007.
