Nigel Clutton (born 12 February 1954, Chester) is a former English footballer who played as a forward. He made a professional appearance for his hometown club, Chester.
Clutton was a prolific striker playing Saturday and Sunday League football for Chester-based sides Blacon YC, Crusaders, Reliance and the Union Vaults and working as a milkman when he was given his solitary Football League outing for Chester on 1 March 1978 at home to Carlisle United.[1] Clutton was given his chance due to injuries to Ian Edwards and Ian Howat[1] and he lined up in attack alongside new signing Ian Mellor.[1] The match ended in a 2–2 draw as Ronnie Phillips and Paul Crossley scored for Chester. Clutton did not play at a professional level again.
