Mike Small (born March 2 1962 in Birmingham) is an English former footballer.

Small began his professional career with Luton Town and made three substitute appearances for them in 1981-82.

After a stint on loan at Peterborough United, Small played in Belgium with Standard Liège, the Netherlands with Twente Enschede with NAC Breda and Go Ahead Eagles, and in Greece with PAOK Thessaloniki FC.

Small spent the 1990-91 season at Second Division side Brighton & Hove Albion and scored 21 goals for the club, helping them to get to the play-off final.

He joined West Ham United of the First Division in 1991. He made his debut against Luton on August 17 1991 and scored 18 goals in his first season, but couldn't prevent the club being relegated, and found himself returning to the Second Division.

Small received a red card in the first game of the 1992-93 season and, with competition from Trevor Morley and recent arrival Clive Allen, rarely featured after that. He played his last game for West Ham against Notts County on March 13 1993.

Towards the end of his Hammers contract, Small spent time on loan to Wolverhampton Wanderers, where his scored against Sunderland, and also with Charlton Athletic in 1993-94.

Small went into non league management at Haringey Borough of the Spartan South Midlands Football League Premier Division before going on to co-manage Kingsbury Town of the Isthmian League with Clasford Stirling. During the 2005-06 season, he was able to steer the club away from the relegation zone by using his vast experience, tactical knowledge of the game and by signing ex pros Jude Stirling, Tony Harvey, Kevin Lambert and Daniel Norris.Fact|date=March 2008

He joined the management team at Waltham Forest in late 2007 [cite web|title=Cofie Keeps The Forest Flourishing|url=http://www.thenonleaguefootballpaper.com/article.asp?aid=1545&iid=50&sud=444|accessdate=2008-03-22|author=John Lyons|publisher=The Non-League Paper] , only to depart at the turn of the year after a disagreement with the club's chairman.
