Dominic Joseph Foley
Forward (1998-2002)
After declining offers of traineeships from Sheffield United and Manchester City at the age of 16, Dominic Foley was brought over to England by Wolverhampton Wanderers shortly before Graham Taylor’s departure from Molineux. Taylor had returned to Watford when Foley had his two spells at Vicarage Road, the first on loan, as a strapping forward with a fierce and accurate shot. That he did not have the impact which these attributes might and perhaps ought to have produced is reflected in the extraordinarily fragmented nature of his first-team action with seven English clubs (single figures in every box in the above table). He wandered far and wide in his career, which encompassed five countries and several administrative and contractual complications, and won six Full international caps, scoring twice.
