Derek Anthony Brownbill (born 4 February 1954) is a former English footballer who played as a forward. He played in the Football League for Liverpool and Port Vale between 1973 and 1978, before spells with American side Cleveland Cobras and English non-league clubs Wigan Athletic, Stafford Rangers, Oswestry Town, Morecambe, Witton Albion, and Warrington Town. Derek Brownbill came through the youth ranks at Liverpool and played one game for the club. Liverpool manager Bob Paisley rejected a bid of 20,000 from Bury because he had already made a verbal agreement with Vale coach Reg Berks.
