Edward Terrance "Ted" Hanney (19 January 1889 – 30 November 1964) was an English football player.

Hanney was part of the gold medal-winning Great Britain team in the 1912 Olympic football competition in Stockholm. Due to an injury he suffered in the quarter-final match (which Britain won 7-0 against Hungary), Hanney he missed the 4-2 victory over Denmark in the final.

He commenced his career with Wokingham Town before moving to Reading. In 1913 he turned professional and switched for a fee of £1250 to Manchester City, for whom he scored ten goals in 68 matches. Hanney guested for Brentford in the London Combination during the First World War.[1] Having served in the Royal Berkshires before the war, Hanney held the rank of sergeant in the Football Battalion and was wounded in the face and neck by shrapnel at Delville Wood in July 1916.[2] Later he played two seasons for Coventry City. After this he returned to Reading, where he finished his career in the Third Division.

From 1924 later he coached VfB Stuttgart, winning the regional championship of Württemberg-Baden 1927, the first title for the club.[3] 1927/28 he coached FC Wacker München, taking the club to the semi-finals of the German Championship.[4]

After returning to England he became a publican.
