Harold Thomas Brown (9 April 1924 – June 1982) was an English footballer who played as a goalkeeper for Queens Park Rangers, Notts County, Derby County and Plymouth Argyle.

Club career

Brown signed for Queens Park Rangers in 1940 and played during the war.[1] He played for Colchester United while stationed at Colchester Garrison, making 12 Southern League appearances between October 1945 and April 1946.[2]

Brown also guested for Arsenal in a friendly against Dinamo Moscow in November 1945, alongside Stanley Matthews and Stan Mortensen. He entered the game after watching as a fan, as Arsenal's goalkeeper was concussed in the first half.[3]

Brown later joined Notts County (1946–1949) and Derby County (1949–1951) before rejoining QPR in 1951. He went on to play 189 league games for Rangers.[4][5][6]
