Willie Brown (footballer)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

William J. Brown (born December 25, 1900 in Dundee) was a Scottish professional footballer.

Willie Brown, a full-back, played for his local side Dundee before joining Welsh side Llanelli for the 1922-23. He moved to Rochdale in 1923, playing 178 league games for them, never scoring before joining Torquay United in 1928 as a replacement for George Cook. He started the first game of the 1928-29 season, a 4-3 defeat at home to Queens Park Rangers, but struggled to establish himself and left Plainmoor, after playing 16 times, to join Dundalk after losing his place in defence to Sid Cann.
