Brian Kettle (born 22 April 1956 in Prescot) is an English former footballer who played as a left-back.
Kettle began his career with Liverpool, signing professional forms in 1973.
He was to remain at Anfield for seven years, but could never rise above reserve level.
He was very successful in the reserve team, however, captaining the side for many years, as it won five Central League titles, and three Liverpool Senior Cups.
He could never break into the first-team, however, only making four appearances before departing in 1980.
He then signed for Wigan Athletic, but was released after one year, dropping into non league football with Burscough and Barrow.
He later moved into management, taking charge of South Liverpool, Southport, Stalybridge Celtic and Rhyl.
