Michael Granger was an English professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper in the Football League for York City, Hull City and Halifax Town and in non-League football for Cliftonville and Scarborough. Despite playing only four times for Halifax, he is the only goalkeeper to score for the club in open play, having done so after being moved outfield after breaking his finger in a FA Cup match against Workington in November 1963. He died from complications of Alzheimer's disease at a nursing home in York in 2016.
