Robbie Foy (born October 28, 1985 in Edinburgh, Scotland) is a professional football player, who plays as a winger for Scunthorpe United.
Foy came through the ranks at the Liverpool Academy and began training full-time at Melwood during the 2003/2004 season. He made his senior debut as a substitute during the pre-season win over Wrexham in July 2004. He was also a substitute, albeit unused, for the first team during the Carling Cup win over Tottenham.
He is traditionally a winger and has the ability to play on the right wing as well up front but most see him at his best on the left.
Foy finished the 2004/2005 season at Chester City after a three-month loan spell.
In August 2005 Foy was again sent out on loan, this time for a five-month spell at Wrexham. He made 12 appearances for Liverpool reserves during the 2005-06 season, scoring twice. He was given a free transfer by Liverpool in May 2006 [1].
Foy undertook a trial with SPL side Dunfermline Athletic during July 2006, but failed to gain a contract due to financial circumstances. [2]
At the end of July Foy undertook a trial with Grimsby Town; he impressed during their final friendly match, but yet again, financial circumstances stopped negotiations. He signed for Scunthorpe United in August 2006.
