Alwyn Derek "Ollie" Burton (born 11 November 1941)[1] is a former Welsh international footballer, who is a member of the Norwich City F.C. Hall of Fame.

A versatile player at the back or as a centre forward, Burton began his career as a wing-half at Newport County scoring 8 times in 53 appearances.[2] He later spent 10 years playing for Newcastle United, but regards being part of the Norwich City side that won the second-ever Football League Cupin1962 as one of his greatest achievements.[3]

Burton made 73 first team appearances for Norwich and scored nine goals, before moving to Newcastle in 1963, for a fee of about £35,000. His move followed an FA Cup tie between the two clubs, which Norwich won 5–0. Burton gained nine caps for Wales.[3]

Burton was part of the Newcastle team that won the Inter-Cities Fairs Cupin1969.[4] The first substitute ever used by Newcastle, following the introduction of the new law. After 9 years at the club he retired in 1972.[3]
