Browne took a long time to make it to the Villa bench, but considering his young age, he had plenty of time for that. He was given his debut for the first team on March 19, 1996 at Villa park against Middlesborough. After that, he hasn't even been on the bench despite a good effort in the mentioned match. After aggreeing verbally to a new contract at the end of the 1995-96 season, he joined Raith Rovers two months later for the price of £120.000. That, however, only was the price after a tribunal battle, since Raith Rovers only paid £50.000 in the beginning.
