Peter Ollerton (born 20 May 1951[1] in Preston, Lancashire, England is a former Australian soccer forward who represented Australia 31 times in full international matches between 1974 and 1977, scoring 15 goals. He was a member of the Australian 1974 World Cup squad in West Germany and also represented the state of Victoria.
Playing career[edit]
Club career[edit]
After playing youth football for Blackpool and Preston North End, Ollerton played for Fleetwood.[2]
Ollerton joined Ringwood Wilhelmina in 1971.[3]
After three seasons with Ringwood Wilhelmina, Ollerton joined APIA Leichhardt.[4]
In late 1975, Ollerton transferred from APIA Leichhardt to South Melbourne Hellas for a $9000 transfer fee.[2]
In 1988, Ollerton was suspended for ten years for punching a referee while playing for Doveton in the Victorian second division. In 1991, the ban was eased and he returned to coaching Preston Makedonia in 1994.[5][6]
International career[edit]
Ollerton made his debut for Australia in 1974 in a pre-World Cup friendly against Uruguay.[7]
Coaching career[edit]
Ollerton became playing coach of Preston Makedonia in June 1981, replacing Brian Edgley. He was sacked by the club midway through the 1984 season.[8][9][10]
In September 1984, Ollerton was announced as coach of Croydon City.[11]
Ahead of the 1987 National Soccer League season, Ollerton joined Melbourne Croatia as an assistant coach.[12] He became caretaker head coach with the resignation and reinstatement of head coach Terry Hennessey in May 1987. He was appointed head coach after Hennessey resigned for the second time.[13][14][15]
Ollerton led Preston to the 1994 Victorian Premier League grand final, where they defeated Port Melbourne to win the championship.[16]
