Dean Brett (born 8 December 1992) is a Scottish footballer who plays as a right back or midfielder formerly of Bonnyrigg Rose Athletic and is currently a free agent.
Brett made his debut for Cowdenbeath in the 2009–10 season.
In February 2017 he was suspended by the club after he admitted breaching professional conduct rules on gambling,[1] [2] before being sacked four days later.[3] He had earlier received a four-match ban from the Scottish Football Association for homophobic tweets.[4] [5] [6]
On 8 March 2017 Brett signed for Bonnyrigg Rose Athletic until the end of the season.[7] After leaving the club at the end of his contract, Brett returned to senior football, signing for Scottish League Two club Montrose on 11 June 2017.[8] Brett, however, left the club less than three weeks after joining, citing lengthy travel times to and from the club as his main motivation behind quitting.[9]
Shortly after leaving Montrose, Brett re-signed for SJFA East Superleague side Bonnyrigg Rose Athletic.[10] [11]
In January 2015 his girlfriend died from cancer; their newborn daughter had died in 2014.[12]
