David Horseman (born 26 December 1983) is an English football coach who is a coach at Bristol Rovers.

Career

Horseman joined Southampton in August 2019 after coaching Bristol City and Watford. He managed Southampton B, but was also involved with their first team.

On 17 July 2023, he was appointed as head coach of Forest Green Rovers, replacing caretaker manager Hannah Dingley. He said he was "incredibly proud" to take up the role. After winning only two of their first seven games, Horseman said the players had to deal with their nerves. On 20 December 2023, Forest Green Rovers parted ways with him by mutual consent.

On 1 July 2024, Horseman was appointed first-team coach at League One side Bristol Rovers. In December 2024, following the sacking of manager Matt Taylor, Horseman was appointed caretaker manager alongside fellow first-team coach Lee Cattermole. He remained with the club after Iñigo Calderón was appointed manager on 26 December, although Cattermole left the club.
