Brown came through the academy at Fulham, having joined the club at the age of seven.[2] Released during the summer of 2009, he spent time on trial with Ipswich Town, having to impress two managers (first Jim Magilton and then Roy Keane). He was offered a one year contract. In April 2010, he was offered a contract extension.
On 2 May 2010, Brown made his league debut for Ipswich, coming off the bench to replace Jack Colback during a 3–0 defeat to Sheffield United in the final game of the 2009–10 season.[3]
In April 2011 he was awarded a twelve month contract extension by the club.[4] He rejected the offer in May 2011.[5]
Brown joined Rotherham United in July 2011 as a free agent.
Brown made his debut for Wales at under-17 level on 20 April 2006 in a 2–2 draw with USA.[6] After winning two more caps in friendly matches against Bulgaria, he was named in the squad for both the qualifying round and elite round of the 2007 UEFA European Under-17 Football Championship, winning his last cap at under-17 level in the final group game of the elite round in a 3–0 defeat to Belarus.[7]
In 2007, Brown moved up to under-19 level for the first time and was later part of the squad that played in the 2008 Milk Cup.[8]
