George Brian Miller (more commonly known as Brian Miller) (January 19, 1937 – April 7 2007) was a former professional footballer and England international who played as a wing back.

Born in Hapton, England, Miller played only for Burnley during his career. He won his only international cap on May 27, 1961 in a 3-1 defeat to Austria.

He twice managed "the Clarets" between 1979 and 1983 and between 1986 and 1989. He helped them win the Third Division title during his first spell.

Miller died peacefully in Burnley General Hospital at the age of seventy following a short illness.
