Alistair Brown started his career at Leicester City, who were relegated out of the First Division in 1968–69.
They finished third in the Second Division in 1969–70, two points shy of promotion.
Ally Brown finished as the club's top scorer in 1970–71 with 17 goals, as Leicester claimed promotion
as the division's champions under Frank O'Farrell's stewardship. He played in the 1971 FA Charity Shield
victory over Liverpool at Filbert Street. He was the club's top scorer again in 1971–72 under Jimmy Bloomfield,
scoring seven goals, including one against rivals Nottingham Forest. He made 121 appearances
for the "Foxes" in all competitions, scoring 35 goals.
