A former [defender](/source/Defender_(association_football)), Tate spent the majority of his playing career at [Swansea City](/source/Swansea_City_A.F.C.). After retiring from playing, Tate moved into coaching with Swansea, before joining Nottingham Forest in 2021, before leaving with [Steve Cooper](/source/Steve_Cooper_(footballer%2C_born_1979)) in December 2023. ==Playing career== Born in [Easington](/source/Easington%2C_County_Durham), County Durham, Tate began his career as a trainee at [Manchester United](/source/Manchester_United_F.C.), later earning himself a professional contract. Although he went on to captain United's reserve team, which included such players as [Quinton Fortune](/source/Quinton_Fortune), [Luke Chadwick](/source/Luke_Chadwick) and [Chris Eagles](/source/Chris_Eagles), he failed to break into the first team. Tate went on loan to [Royal Antwerp](/source/Royal_Antwerp_F.C.), Manchester United's feeder club, in 2002, making seven appearances in the Belgian First Division.{{cite web |title=Alan Tate |url=http://www.rafc.be/spelersfiches/spelersfiche.php?id=220 |work=rafc.be |publisher=Royal Antwerp FC |access-date=27 December 2012 |language=nl |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080324192905/http://www.rafc.be/spelersfiches/spelersfiche.php?id=220 |archive-date=24 March 2008 }} He did not score for Royal Antwerp in the two months he was there, but he did score an own goal against [Gent](/source/K.A.A._Gent) on 17 February 2002, the first goal in a 3–3 draw.{{cite news |title=Belgium round-up: Brugge leave it late |url=http://www.uefa.com/memberassociations/news/newsid=17647.html |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130205041303/http://www.uefa.com/memberassociations/news/newsid=17647.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=5 February 2013 |publisher=UEFA |date=18 February 2002 |access-date=27 December 2012}} ===Swansea City=== Tate spent two loan periods at [Swansea City](/source/Swansea_City_A.F.C.). He played a major role in the club's battle against relegation from [the Football League](/source/the_Football_League) in the 2002–03 season, before joining the club on a permanent basis on 6 February 2004. Initially a centre-back, Tate made a successful transition to the right-back slot. He further showed his versatility by playing several matches in the centre of midfield during an injury crisis at the club during the 2005–06 season, which saw him named as the club's Player of the Year. Tate was in the Swansea City team which won the [Football League Trophy](/source/Football_League_Trophy) final against [Carlisle United](/source/Carlisle_United_F.C.) on 2 April 2006. After the final whistle, he and [Lee Trundle](/source/Lee_Trundle) were photographed holding a Welsh flag bearing the words "Fuck off Cardiff," which had been handed to them by Swansea supporters.{{cite news |first=Huw |last=Richards |title=Local difficulties |url=http://www.wsc.co.uk/content/view/1309/29/ |work=[When Saturday Comes](/source/When_Saturday_Comes) |date=June 2006 |access-date=14 September 2011 |quote=Striker Lee Trundle and defender Alan Tate ...

On 28 August 2011, Tate broke his leg in a [golf cart](/source/golf_cart) accident, managing to lodge his leg between the cart and a tree.
