Michael Alexander Perry (born 4 April 1964) is an English former footballer who scored seven goals in 47 league games in a four-year career in the Football League from 1982 to 1984. A forward, he played for West Bromwich Albion, Torquay United, Northampton Town, Port Vale, and Stafford Rangers.
Perry began his career at Ron Wylie's West Bromwich Albion, who posted an 11th-place finish in the First Division in 1982âÂÂ83, before dropping to 17th place in 1983âÂÂ84. Perry scored five goals in 20 league games at The Hawthorns. He also had loan spells at Fourth Division clubs Torquay United and Northampton Town, making five appearances at Plainmoor and four appearances at Sixfields. He joined Torquay permanently and scored one goal in 18 league games in the 1984âÂÂ85 campaign, as David Webb's "Gulls" finished bottom of the Football League. He had a trial with John Rudge's Fourth Division Port Vale in October 1985, making an appearance as a substitute in a Football League Trophy first round match against Wrexham at the Racecourse Ground on 21 January 1986, which finished 1âÂÂ1. He left Vale Park the following month, and, after an unsuccessful trial with Nottingham Forest, joined non-League Stafford Rangers.
