Barry Ferguson (born 7 September 1979 in Dublin) is an Irish professional football player for Shamrock Rovers in Dublin. He made his Rovers debut on the 9th of March 2007 at UCD [1]. He signed for the club from city rivals Bohemians in January 2007, having spent just one season with the Dalymount outfit [2].
Barry began his football career with Home Farm before moving to Coventry City. While there he played at the FIFA World Youth Championship finals in Nigeria in 1999. Although he never made a competitive first team appearance for City, Barry did have brief spells in the lower divisions with Colchester United, Hartlepool United and Northampton Town.
