Perhaps best known for penning the multi-award winning feature Green Street, Dougie Brimson’s writing career began in 1996 when, after 18 years service with the Royal Air Force, he co-authored the best-selling non-fiction soccer book, Everywhere We Go.
Everywhere We Go is a groundbreaking insider’s account of British football violence which remains an era-defining bestseller till today.

The Daily Mail described the book as “Probably the best book ever written on football violence”.

A further 14 titles have followed in a variety of genre including the crime thriller, The Crew – which has topped the Amazon sports book download charts for over five years – and the comedies Billy’s Log and Wings of a Sparrow. Total worldwide sales of his various titles now exceed 750,000 copies.

In 2003, Dougie made the move into the world of screenwriting first with the critically acclaimed short movie It’s a Casual Life and then with his first full-length feature, Green Street.

May 2014 saw the release of his second feature, an adaptation of his own novel Top Dog which took the Best Feature award at the British Independent Film Festival. A third feature, the urban revenge thriller We Still Kill The Old Way was released to public and critical acclaim in December 2014.
