Brian Wake (born August 13, 1982 in Stockton, England) is an English footballer, currently playing for Greenock Morton in the Scottish Football League First Division, after starting his career at non-league Tow Law. He is a striker. Wake became somewhat of a cult hero with the fans when he got over a shaky start to steer the club clear of relegation with important goals and his all-action performances.

Wake's notable contributions in football have been a hat-trick at Shrewsbury to keep Carlisle in The Football League [cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_div_3/2968037.stm|title=Shrewsbury 2-3 Carlisle|publisher=BBC Sport|date=2003-04-29|accessdate=2008-09-26] , winning a first division title medal with Hamilton Accies (although he had left for Morton in January 2008) [cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/morton/7219031.stm|title=Wake moves from Accies to Morton|publisher=BBC Sport|date=2008-01-31|accessdate=2008-09-26] and four goals in Morton's last three games of season 2007-08 (including a double at Firhill) [cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/scot_div_1/7364831.stm|title=Partick Thistle 0-3 Morton|publisher=BBC Sport|date=2008-04-26|accessdate=2008-09-26] to keep them in Division One.
