Daniel John Webb (born 2 July 1983) is an English former footballer who played as a defender and is employed as Assistant Manager at Chesterfield, having initially been appointed as First Team Coach.
[4] In 2002 Webb left Southend, moving to Hull City on a free transfer, where he went on to make a total of 18 appearances, scoring one goal, between 2002 and 2004.
The player's time at the club was not without controversy and in August 2004, Webb was fined by United's manager Hervé Renard for an on-the-field punch-up with teammate Luke Guttridge during a match against Shrewsbury Town.
David Webb's executive role however was brief, ending in February 2006, and his son never really subsequently broke into the first team, making only 10 appearances in 18 months at the club.
Having been released by Yeovil at the end of the 2006–07 season,[14] Webb moved to Malta to sign for champions Marsaxlokk under the guidance of English manager Brian Talbot.
[15] Following his stint with Marsaxlokk, Webb returned to England to sign for AFC Wimbledon on 23 July 2007,[16] ending the club's long search for a "target man".
[17][18] However, Webb failed to score regularly for the Dons and after losing his place in the starting team played only a bit-part role for much of the second half of the 2007–08 season.
Whilst on trial, Webb played one game and impressed manager Nick Holmes which resulted in him being signed by the club after they lost some of their first choice strikers due to financial problems.
After Edwards was promoted to assist manager Kevin Nolan on a more regular basis, Webb led Orient's youngsters to the Merit League Two title — finishing unbeaten from their 10 games.
