Richard Money (born 13 October 1955) is an English former footballer and manager and is the current Academy Director for Norwich City. Most recently he managed Cambridge United, overseeing the side's return to the Football League after a nine-year absence. Money was dismissed by Cambridge in November 2015.
Born in Lowestoft, Suffolk, Money grew up a Norwich City fan. He began his career at Scunthorpe United as a defender, later playing for Liverpool, Luton, Portsmouth and Fulham, among others, during the 1970s and 1980s. At Liverpool he was an unused substitute in the 1981 European Cup Final, having played in the semi-final.
Money became caretaker player/manager of Scunthorpe at the end of his playing career. He was later Youth Coach at Aston Villa before returning four years later to Scunthorpe to take the manager's role. He became coach at Nottingham Forest during their successful return to the premiership and Europe in the 1990s before leaving with manager Frank Clark to coach at Manchester City. He also had very successful spells as both Academy Director and First Team Coach at Coventry City. He built up extensive experience in management and coaching in Sweden, as manager of successful club AIK, gaining experience of coaching in the UEFA Cup, and then at Västerås SK, saving them from certain relegation. He then coached in Australia with Newcastle United Jets in the newly formed A-League, leading the club to a fourth-place finish and a place in the Grand final series.
