Andrew Nicholas

Andrew Peter Nicholas (born 10 October 1983 in Liverpool) is an English footballer. He plays as a central defender for Warrington Town.

Nicholas began his career at Liverpool, where he was timed as being faster than England international Michael Owen. Andrew Nicholas was released in the summer of 2003 but was swiftly snapped up by Swindon Town manager Andy King on a one-year contract.

Nicholas did not appear in the Swindon first team until October but soon found himself a regular as the Robins earned a place in the Division Two play-offs only to lose narrowly to Brighton & Hove Albion in the semi-finals. During the season a two-year extension to his Swindon contract was offered which he accepted. Injuries and lack of form kept "Nico" out of the team in his next season and he spent a month out on loan to Chester City before returning for the remaining fixtures of Swindon's season. He never gained a regular place in the first team squad, and was let go at the end of the 2011–12 season.

Following his departure from Barrow, Nicholas joined Vauxhall Motors, for whom he was an ever-present during the 2012–13 and 2013–14 seasons.
