Scott Barrett (born April 2 1963 in Ilkeston) is an English former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper. He is currently assistant manager of League Two club Gillingham.

Career

Barrett began his career at hometown club Ilkeston Town but soon joined Division Two Wolverhampton Wanderers in September 1984. He made his league debut on 27 October 1984 in a 1-0 win at Portsmouth.

He was largely second choice at Molineux though, behind Tim Flowers and later Mark Kendall. After a total of 35 appearances for the club over three seasons that saw two relegations, he left for Stoke City in July 1987 for £10,000.

Again, he never became an established number one at his new club, and instead had loan spells at Colchester United and Stockport County before he was released in Summer 1990. He subsequently signed for one of the sides he had been loaned to, Colchester United of the Conference.

His time with Colchester included the rare feat of scoring a goal, when a long goal-kick sailed into the net in the final minute against Wycombe Wanderers in September 1991. This proved crucial in the final table as Colchester pipped Wycombe to promotion to the Football League on goal difference after finishing level on points.

He moved to Gillingham shortly after, where he spent three full seasons before joining Cambridge United. Here, he made the most appearances of his career for any one club, before leaving in January 1999 when he was signed by his former Cambridge manager Tommy Taylor, now at Leyton Orient.

He left Orient to become assistant manager at Grays Athletic to Mark Stimson. When Stimson moved to Stevenage Borough at the start of the 2006/07 season, Barrett followed him and later again moved with Stimson when he took the reins at Gillingham, one of Barrett's former clubs, in November 2007.
