Andrew Victor Saville (born 12 December 1964) is an English former professional footballer who played as a striker. His professional career lasted sixteen years, spent at a total of ten lower-division clubs in the Football League.[1]
Saville was born in Hull. He made more than 100 appearances for his home-town club, Hull City, whom he joined from school.[1][2] He was his club's leading scorer on several occasions, at Hull City in 1986–87,[3] at Birmingham City in 1993–94,[2] and again the following season for Preston North End, where he scored 30 goals in all competitions, his 29 League goals making him overall top scorer in Division Three.[4]
In 1992–93 he had the rare distinction of becoming top scorer for two clubs in the same season, scoring 20 goals in all competitions for Hartlepool United[5] before moving to Birmingham in March 1993, where his ten games produced seven goals, a total which no other Birmingham player bettered over the whole season.[6]
