Douglas Alexander Brown (born 21 March 1958) is a former footballer who played as a forward for Sheffield United. Born in England, he played for the Australia B national team.

Born in Poole in Dorset,[1] Brown started his career in Scotland where he was signed by Aberdeen on 16 July 1976[2] but failed to make the breakthrough into the first team.[1] On 17 May 1978[3] he moved to Clydebank for a short spell before being signed by English side Sheffield United on 2 March 1979, making his league debut the following day in a 1–1 draw against Oldham Athletic.[1]

Described by the press as an 'enthusiastic' player Brown was unable to establish himself as a first team player and eventually left United in October 1980 after playing 31 games in total and scoring five goals.[1]

Following his departure from United, Brown returned to his former trade as an engineering fitter. Brown worked for his father, George Brown, who was a building sub-contractor. George Brown had also been a Football League player, with Southport and Bradford Park Avenue.[1]

Brown later emigrated to Australia, signing with local giants South Melbourne Hellas in the National Soccer League. In four seasons at the club, he established himself as one of its greatest ever figures, twice finishing as the league's highest scorer and leading the club to the 1984 championship.[4] He has been honoured as a nominee in the club's Hall of Champions.[5]
