Stuart McCall
| Date of birth | 10 June 1964 |
| Place of birth | Leeds |
| Nationality | Scottish |
| Weight | 76 kg |
| Height | 1.70 m |
| Position | Midfielder |
With Everton, FA Cup runner-up 1989
Stuart started the 2000-01 campaign as assistant to new Bradford City manager Chris Hutchings, and when Hutchings was sacked he took over as caretaker-manager for a fortnight until new manager Jim Jeffries arrived, thereafter remaining on the coaching staff.
He played as sweeper and right back, as well as in his preferred central midfield role and rarely missed a match all season.
Full of energy, he runs around like a teenager, possessing a ferocious tackle and a particularly venomous right foot.
After a season in Division One, he was one of the players released by Bradford City at the end of 2001-02 as the club went into administration.
Stuart was picked up on a free transfer by Sheffield United in the summer of 2002 and subsequently extended his stay at Bramhall Lane upto June 2005 in January 2004.
