Career
In November 2008, Brown transferred to Conference National side Eastbourne Borough on a loan lasting until 1 January.[1] In January, after much interest by other big clubs, Brown signed a contract at Eastbourne Borough lasting until the end of the season.[2] In the absence of Captain Paul Armstrong, he was made the club captain.[3] In April 2009, Brown was enjoying his time at Eastbourne stating he made the right choice and was in talks to extend his part-time contract for another year.[4] In May 2009, it was confirmed that Brown had signed a two-year deal at Priory Lane.[5] Brown departed Priory Lane in January 2011 to join Harlow Town after a loan spell there.[6]
Coaching career
Danny Brown retired from playing in 2015[7] and went into coaching, acting as interim manager at Billericay Town F.C. after the departure of manager Kevin Watson.[8] Brown was again appointed as Interim Manager of Billericay Town on 19 April with the club sitting bottom of the league, one point from safety, with just four matches remaining.[9] Brown was unable to save the club from relegation, a 2–1 defeat in the penultimate game of the season seeing the club relegated to the Isthmian League.[10]
