Delroy Michael Facey[1] (born 22 April 1980) is a British-Grenadian former professional footballer who played as a striker.
He earned an extended run in the side and scored 10 goals in 21 full starts and one as a substitute to finish the 2000–01 campaign as joint top-scorer alongside Kevin Gallen.
[2] As Facey was under the age of 24, then, under the Bosman ruling, Huddersfield were entitled to compensation for him; a tribunal held on 15 August 2002 decided that Bolton Wanderers should pay an initial £100,000 for Facey plus £50,000 for every five games, up to a maximum of 25 games, that he played for the club with the club also receiving a sell on clause of 15% of any fee that Bolton could receive for him.
Whilst on loan at these two clubs he exhibited his strength and speed, grabbing six goals and managing to score a hat-trick in a 3–1 home win for Burnley against Walsall.
[5] This was not enough to convince Bolton to play Facey regularly, and so he moved to West Bromwich Albion in January 2004.
[10] In his first season at Prenton Park, Facey secured a first team slot and managed to find the scoresheet fairly regularly, scoring eight league goals.
Following his release from Prenton Park at the end of the 2005–06 season, Facey signed for League One club Rotherham United.
[13] He scored against former club Bradford in the last game of the season to help them qualify for the play-offs,[14] where his goal against Stockport County in the semi-final was not enough to put them through to the final.
[18] He made his debut for County against Bradford City, a club where he played on loan, in their 2–1 defeat on the opening day of the 2008–09 season.
[19] In November 2009, Facey signed a loan deal with Lincoln City, scoring his first and only goal for the club against Chesterfield.
Sources:[27] In 2009, Facey received a call up to play for Grenada and train with them in preparation for the 2009 CONCACAF Gold Cup.
[34] In April 2015, Facey, with Moses Swaibu, appeared at Birmingham Crown Court in connection with a match-fixing charge.
