Alan Kernaghan (born April 4, 1967 in Otley, West Yorkshire) is an English-born Irish former football player. Since retiring he has become a coach and manager.
Kernaghan began his playing career as an apprentice at Middlesbrough, and went on to make 212 appearances during an eight-year period, scoring 16 goals.
In September 1993, Kernaghan was signed for Manchester City by then-boss Brian Horton. He joined Bradford on loan in 1996, and then to St. Johnstone in 1997. The Saints signed him on a permanent deal just before the end of the year, after he was given a free transfer from Manchester City. He enjoyed four years at McDiarmid Park, making 60 league appearances and scoring five goals.
Kernaghan then joined Brechin, but his spell there was short as he made only three competitive appearances for the Glebe Park club. He then moved to Clyde, where he started as a player but was promoted to a player/manager role in the 2003/4 season. He guided Clyde to a second-placed finish in the First Division, behind Inverness Caley Thistle, a division which they led for the majority of the season. Kernaghan made 63 appearances for Clyde as a player, scoring three goals.
His next move was to Livingston as assistant manager to Allan Preston. Kernaghan was on a player/assistant manager role at the club, making four first team appearances for Livingston, but he was sacked along with Preston after a poor run of results.
Kernaghan next moved to Falkirk, where he took up a player/coach role. He made nine appearances for the Bairns but left the club on 2 September 2005, to take up the role as manager of Dundee.
Kernaghan was unable to get Dundee out of the First Division and was removed as manager in April 2006.
In January 2007 he joined Rangers as a coach of their youth team.
