Trevor Anthony Brissett (2 January 1961 – May 2010) was an English footballer. He played in the Football League for Port Vale and Darlington in the early 1980s. He remained involved with football for the rest of his life, playing for Stafford Rangers, Witton Albion, Macclesfield Town, and Newcastle Town, and coaching at Newcastle Town, Congleton Town, Meir KA and the Stoke City Academy.
Brissett was contracted to Stoke City, before joining local rivals Port Vale in May 1980, after being spotted by John McGrath and John Rudge. He made 45 appearances in 1980–81, missing just five Fourth Division games. However he featured just 15 times in 1981–82, and was given a free transfer in May 1982. He spent the 1982–83 campaign with league rivals Darlington, and played 12 games before he was released by manager Billy Elliott. He moved into non-League football with Stafford Rangers, Witton Albion, Macclesfield Town, and Newcastle Town. Whilst at Macclesfield Town in summer 1986 he was in a car crash with teammates Nigel Shaw, Ian Elsby and Steve Waddington.
