Louis Andrew Briscoe (born 2 April 1988) is an English professional footballer who plays for National League North club Tamworth. His playing position is primarily on the right wing, although he can play as a striker or on the left wing.
He started his career with Football League side Port Vale in 2005, but failed to make an impact and moved on to non-league Leek Town two years later. After brief spells with Hednesford Town, Gresley Rovers, Stafford Rangers, and Ilkeston Town, he won a move to Conference club Mansfield Town in 2009. He helped the club to an FA Trophy final and was named in the Conference Team of the Year in 2010–11. He then won the Conference Premier title with Mansfield in 2012–13. He was loaned out to Nuneaton Town in October 2013, before ending his five-year stay at Mansfield in May 2014. In June 2014 he signed for Torquay United. He joined Wrexham in January 2016.
Born in Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire, Briscoe began his career as a trainee at Port Vale. He made four Football League appearances for Vale, making his debut as a 17-year-old in a 1–0 defeat to Bristol City at Vale Park on 17 December 2005. His three further League One appearances came later on in the 2005–06 season, after which he was voted Youth Player of the Year by the Port Vale management. The following season he made just the one appearance, coming off the bench late into a 4–0 trouncing at League Two Hereford United in the FA Cup.
