Peter Joseph Weatherson (born 29 May 1980 in North Shields, England) is an English professional footballer who mainly plays as a striker for Annan Athletic. He was also recently joint player-manager of Shettleston in the Scottish Juniors, West Region.
Weatherson started his senior career with Dumfries club Queen of the South from 2000 to 2003, after initially playing with local club Newcastle Blue Star. Weatherson then went on to play for Greenock Morton for a decade and then Annan Athletic from 2013 to 2016, before going to Shettleston in the Scottish Juniors, West Region as joint player-manager. Weatherson returned to the Black and Golds for a second spell on 13 January 2017, leaving Shettleston after only five months in charge.
Born in North Shields, Weatherson began his career with local non-league club Newcastle Blue Star.
In the summer of 2000, John Connolly, the Dumfries club Queen of the South's manager, signed Weatherson to play in the Scottish Football League, where he mainly featured as a striker and occasionally played as a right midfielder. During the 2001–02 season, Weatherson scored 15 league goals in 33 league appearances, as the Palmerston Park club won the Scottish Football League Second Division Championship. Under the captaincy of Jim Thomson, the title was clinched after a 3–0 win at Forfar Athletic on 20 April 2002. In that match, Weatherson scored the first two Queens goals and the third goal was scored by Sean O'Connor, who Queens signed from Dundee United, having watched him play for Greenock Morton during his loan spell at Cappielow.
