Jonathan Alan Gould (born 18 July 1968) is a football coach and former professional player.

As a player, he was a

Football League for Halifax Town, West Bromwich Albion, Bradford City, Gillingham, Preston North End, Hereford United and Bristol City. Born in England, he was capped twice by Scotland and was part of their squad for the 1998 FIFA World Cup
.

Upon retiring from playing he joined

Wellington Phoenix as player/assistant coach in 2009. He has also worked on the coaching staff at West Bromwich Albion, Middlesbrough and Preston North End
.

Personal life

Gould was born in England and is the elder son of former Wales and Wimbledon manager Bobby Gould.[2][citation needed]

Club career

Gould had a spell in New Zealand in 1989 playing for

Bradford City on deadline day. In May 1996 he played in Bradford City's 2-0 play off final victory against Notts County at Wembley, earning the club promotion to Division One (now known as The Championship). The following season, he was replaced at Bradford by Mark Schwarzer
.

Aberdeen at Pittodrie in March 1998 was particularly outstanding.[4] In addition to his league championship winner's medal, Gould also picked a Scottish League Cup winner's medal that season in Celtic's 3–0 win over Dundee United in November 1997. He also placed third for the SFWA Footballer of the Year award in 1998.[5]

He continued as the No 1 under the stewardship of Josef Venglos and John Barnes. During

UEFA Cup tie against Hapoel Tel Aviv to help his side progress.[6] However, despite opening the 2000-01 Treble winning season as first choice and playing in the opening 13 league fixtures, Martin O'Neill signed Rab Douglas
as a replacement. Douglas soon became first choice at Celtic, although Gould completed his hat-trick of Scottish League Cup winner's medals that season with Celtic's 3–0 win over Kilmarnock in the final on 18 March 2001 (Douglas was cup-tied having played for Dundee in an earlier round of the tournament). He also collected his second league championship winner's medal courtesy of his appearances earlier that season.

Despite his lack of first-team football at Celtic thereafter, Gould remained at the club for a further 3 years having been offered an extended contract by the manager, before eventually joining Preston North End on a free transfer in January 2003.[7]

It was during this time at Preston that Gould enjoyed a renaissance in his form which resulted in a call-up into the Scotland Squad for the European Championship play-off games against Holland.[8]

At the start of the

2004–05 season Gould went on loan to Hereford United where he made 15 appearances. He then signed for Bristol City on a free transfer in 2005 but after three months was released and it was then that he decided to retire from European football.[citation needed
]

After becoming a member of staff at

Hawke's Bay United, Gould played occasionally for the team in the NZFC
.

As recently as 30 August 2009, Gould donned the gloves again, this time for the

A-League
appearance.

International career

Gould qualified to play for Scotland on the basis that his grandparents came from Blantyre in Lanarkshire.[9] After an outstanding season at Celtic, he was called up to the international side for the 1998 World Cup but was third choice behind Jim Leighton and Neil Sullivan. After the competition he remained in the squad deputising for Sullivan and won his first cap on 9 October 1999 in a 3–0 win over Lithuania at Hampden in a qualifier tie for Euro 2000. Gould won his second and last cap a year later on 15 November 2000 in a 0–2 defeat in a friendly at Hampden against Australia.

Upon losing his first team place at Celtic to Rab Douglas, Gould drifted out of the international scene. His form at Preston North End a couple of years later won him a recall to the squad in November 2003 for the two-legged Euro 2004 qualifier against the Netherlands,[10] albeit he did not play in either game.

Coaching and managerial career

In 2006, he became manager of

Wellington Phoenix.[12]

On 16 February 2015 Jonathan Gould joined

New Zealand.[17]

Gould returned to England in December 2022 joining Stoke City.[18] He left his role with Stoke in December 2023.[19]
