Peter John Farrell (born 10 January 1957) is an English former football player and coach.
He started his career as a midfielder with Bury in 1975 before he made a £40,000 move to Port Vale in 1978. Loaned out to Doncaster Rovers and Shrewsbury Town in 1981, he joined Rochdale in 1982. He transferred to Crewe Alexandra in 1985, before he finished his career at non-League Barrow after a short tour of Europe.

He later spent ten years as a coach at Bolton Wanderers and two years as a coach at Brentford.
