David Peter Winnie (born 26 October 1966) is a Scottish former football player and manager of Dumbarton. He is presently a solicitor based in central London.

A defender on the field, Winnie was part of St Mirren's 1987 Scottish Cup final-winning team. He also played for Aberdeen, Dundee and Hearts, and was a Scotland U21 international. After leaving Scotland in 1998, he played for KR Reykjavik where he won the Icelandic player of the year. In 1999, Winnie helped KR win the Icelandic Premier League and Cup for the first time in 30 years, following which he went on loan to Canberra Cosmos in Australia for a season before returning to Iceland.

In 2001, Winnie was then assistant manager at KR before a brief caretaker role saw him steer them from relegation danger. Winnie was then part of the youth academy coaching staff at Livingston and Rangers.

Winnie was manager of Dumbarton from June 2002 until his sacking in March 2003, when the Sons were struggling in the Second Division. He was replaced by Bo'ness United manager Brian Fairley.

Winnie trained to become a solicitor at a law firm in St. Albans and qualified in November 2009. He is presently a Partner and Head of Sports at Gilson Gray LLP, a Scottish law firm with offices throughout the United Kingdom.
