Frederick Edwin "Fred" Bullock (July 1886 – 1922) was an English football defender, best remembered for his 11-year spell with Huddersfield Town, before, during and after the First World War.
Bullock won one cap for England, which came in a 2–0 win over Ireland in 1920. He won an amateur cap in 1910.
Bullock served as a corporal in the Football Battalion during the First World War. He was wounded in the shoulder during the Battle of the Somme in 1916, in the region of Delville Wood and Guillemont and was injured in the knee after an accident in 1918. After his retirement from football in 1922, Bullock became landlord of the Slubber's Arms pub in Huddersfield. He died of ammonia poisoning in November 1922, having been suffering "nerve troubles" during the month preceding his death.
