Jay Lovett (born 2 January 1978) is an English football defender and midfielder who plays for Loxwood. He has spent his career playing in league football with Brentford and also non league football in both county level, with Saltdean United, and in national level where he has played for the majority of his career with Crawley Town and Eastbourne Borough.
Lovett started his career in East Sussex for Lewes, making his debut for them 11 February 1995 as they lost 4–0 away at Leighton Town in Isthmian League Division Three. Later that year he moved to the west country and Plymouth Argyle in Devon but was unable to start a first team game, after which he moved back to Sussex and played for Saltdean United in Division One of the Sussex County League. A season later he moved to Crawley Town in 1998 and played for two seasons. Division One team Brentford took interest in Lovett, after watching him in a pre-season friendly and paid Crawley their record sum of £75,000 for the midfielder in July 2000.
In his first year at Brentford he was back on loan to Crawley Town for nine games before making 28 appearances for the first team. In 2003, Lovett made two more loan signings, firstly at Hereford United where he played for two months, and a month at Gravesend & Northfleet, before his contract expired at the end of the 2002–03 season.
