Eric George Harrison (5 February 1938 – 13 February 2019) was an English professional football player and coach.
He played in midfield for several teams, including notable spells at Halifax Town (his local club) and Barrow.
Harrison became a football coach and worked at Everton before he was brought to Manchester United by Ron Atkinson in 1981 to manage the youth team.
