Jock Brown

Jock Brown (born c.1946) is a football commentator for STV and Setanta Sports, previously for BBC Scotland. He started his broadcasting career for BBC Radio Scotland before moving to Scottish Television where he became the main commentator between 1980 and 1990 before joining BBC Scotland where he stayed till 1997. He is a solicitor by profession and is currently a partner with Brodies.

In 1997 he was appointed by Fergus McCann as General Manager of Celtic F.C., and Brown was instrumental in bringing Wim Jansen to Celtic as manager. Reports suggested that the pair did not enjoy a harmonious working relationship, culminating in the resignation of Jansen after one successful season. Brown was then involved in the appointment of Josef Venglos. Brown had a controversial time at Celtic, and he resigned in November, 1998.

He is the brother of former Scotland manager Craig Brown.
