Douglas Alexander "Duggie" Brown is a former footballer who played as a forward for Sheffield United.
Born in Poole in Dorset, Brown started his career in Scotland where he was signed by Aberdeen but failed to make the breakthrough into the first team. 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.
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.
Following his departure from United Brown returned to his former trade, an engineering fitter for his father, working for his father who was a building sub-contractor.
