Barry William Dominey (21 October 1955 – 22 March 2005) was an English footballer who played as a defender in the Football League for Colchester United. Considered a good prospect as a teenager, his career stuttered at an early age and he quickly slipped out of the Football League and played for Yeovil Town and Dorchester Town.

Career

[edit]

Dominey, born in Edmonton, London, joined Colchester United from Enfield WMC,[1] making his U's and Football League debut on 16 April 1974 during a 0–0 away draw with Brentford, coming on as a substitute for Paul Taylor.[2] He scored his first Colchester goal in a 1–0 League Cup fourth round replay at The Dell against Southampton which proved to be the crucial winning goal, taking the U's through to the quarter-finals of the competition.[3] Dominey would go on to score three league goals in 71 appearances for the club.[4] He made his final appearance in a Colchester shirt on 21 January 1977 in a 1–0 home defeat to Cambridge United.[5] He would later play for Yeovil Town and Dorchester Town. Barry Dominey died aged 49 on 22 March 2005.[1]
