Terry Brown (born 5 August 1952) is an English football manager and former player. He is the current manager of Basingstoke Town and formerly managed Margate, AFC Wimbledon, Aldershot Town and Hayes.
Born in Hillingdon, London, Brown joined Hayes from local football as a 19-year-old and made his debut against Enfield Town in April 1971. He became a regular during the next season, and got a taste for the big occasion as a member of the team which first defeated Football League opposition in Bristol Rovers. He caught the attention of scouts from Fulham and Millwall, and was selected for the FA Amateur XI. Either side of a short spell with Sutton United in 1974, Brown played for Slough Town from 1973 to 1977, before rejoining Hayes, where he stayed until October 1979. In both spells with Hayes he made a total of 148 appearances and scored 45 goals. Brown left for Wokingham Town, where he played well into the 1980s.
Previous to becoming a manager he coached Wokingham Town, for whom he had also played.
He was in charge of Hayes for nine years between 1993 and 2002. He had managed to take the Middlesex side from the brink of relegation from the Isthmian League Premier Division to third in the Football Conference, just six points behind champions Cheltenham Town. But with a diminishing budget and his best players sold to make ends meet, Brown saw his side slip into a relegation dogfight. Frustrated, he applied for the Aldershot Town job and was selected for the job ahead of 50 other candidates.
