Mads Timm (born 31 October 1984 in Odense, Denmark) is a Danish football player who plays for the Danish Superliga side Odense Boldklub (OB).
Spending his youth years at OB, Timm joined English club Manchester United in the English Premier League in 2000. He made his first team debut against Maccabi Haifa in a Champions League match in October 2002. He was not able to secure a place in the first team at United, and he spent some time on loan at the Norwegian club Viking F.K., scoring the first ever goal at their new Viking Stadion, as well as English lower-league club Walsall.
In March 2005, Timm was sentenced to twelve months in a young offenders' institute for dangerous driving, after team mate Callum Flanagan's car hit another vehicle while he and Timm were racing each other on a public road. Although United sacked Flanagan after the incident, Timm was allowed to remain with the club.[1]
On May 24, 2006 Manchester United released a statement saying that Timm, along with 6 other players, had been released by the club[2] and on June 1, 2006 Timm returned to his Danish childhood club, OB on a three year contract.[3]. In a TV-interview on the Danish TV-station TV2 the coach from OB stated that Timm needed a second chance.
