Northern Irish footballer
Joseph Anthony Gormley (born 26 November 1989) is a Northern Irish footballer who plays for Cliftonville in the NIFL Premiership. Gormley played for amateur side Crumlin Star before making the move to Cliftonville. On 14 June 2015, Gormley made the transition to professional football, signing for Football League One side Peterborough United. After suffering a serious knee injury, Gormley moved on loan to Scottish club St Johnstone in August 2016. After becoming "disillusioned" with professional football, Gormley had his contracts with Peterborough and St Johnstone cancelled. It was announced in January 2017 that Gormley would rejoin Cliftonville for the 2017/18 season.
Nicknamed "Joe The Goal", Gormley is Cliftonville's all-time record goalscorer with 264 goals in 448 appearances (as of 27 September 2023).[2]
