Club career

Early career

[edit]

Born in Runcorn, Cheshire,[5] Brown progressed through the Everton youth system, having joined the club at under-nines level.[6] He was part of the team that reached the 2002 FA Youth Cup final, which Everton lost 4–2 on aggregate to Aston Villa.[7] After not making a senior appearance for the club he was released in 2004.[8] He then joined Port Vale on trial in July 2004, under manager Martin Foyle,[9] but was not signed to the club on a permanent contract.[10]

Bristol City

[edit]

In August 2004, he turned professional when he signed for Bristol City when Brian Tinnion offered him an initial three-month contract.[11] In October 2005, Brown and City teammates David Partridge and Bradley Orr were arrested on suspicion of violent disorder after an incident in a nightclub.[12] They were later charged with affray, as was teammate Steve Brooker.[13] Brown denied the offence but admitted the lesser charge of a section 4 public-order offence.[14] His three teammates were sent to prison. Brown escaped this punishment and instead was given 120 hours' community service for his part in the drunken brawl.[15]

Cheltenham Town (loan)

He was voted the Professional Footballers' Association Fans' Player of the Month for September 2006.[16] Brown joined fellow League One club Cheltenham Town in January 2007.[17] He broke his leg in a collision with teammate Damian Spencer in a match against his former team[18] and was ruled out for the rest of the 2006–07 season.[19] His full recovery from the double leg fracture and dislocated ankle took a total of 18 months despite the surgeon initially fearing that Brown would struggle ever to walk properly again.[20] Despite having left Bristol City halfway through the 2006–07 season he was presented with a promotion medal by Gary Johnson for his contribution in the first half of the campaign.[16]

Port Vale (loan)

[edit]

In November 2008, Brown went to Port Vale on loan after failing to make an appearance under manager Martin Allen.[21][22] He scored on his debut on 22 November, in a 4–2 defeat to Wycombe Wanderers at Vale Park.[23] In January 2009, Vale signed Brown on a free transfer after his Cheltenham contract expired.[24] With 19 appearances for Vale in 2008–09, he was released upon the season's conclusion.[25] He rejoined Cheltenham on 25 March 2010 on non-contract terms,[26] but was released by the club along with seven other players in May,[27] having only played 16 minutes in the final match of the season.[28]
