Samad Allapitchay (born 1950) is a Singaporean former footballer who played as a centre-back. Known as a hard-tackling, no-nonsense defender with a penchant for bulldozing his way from defence to attack, he was once dubbed "The Rock of Gibraltar" by his Singapore national team coach Mick Walker.[2][3][4][5]

A former national team captain, Samad played for Singapore Football League sides Geylang International[6][7] and Tampines Rovers, and the Singapore Lions in the Malaysia Cup.

Samad is married to Norizan Aljunied.[8] His late youngest son was Singapore international defender Shariff Samat. Like his father, Shariff was a centre-back who played for Tampines Rovers and Geylang International.[9][10]
