EspañolZEMA ABBEY
'Zema Abbey' (born April 17, 1977 in Luton) is an English former professional footballer who plays as a striker. He currently plays for Barton Rovers. He has a degree in Sports Science and Leisure Management from Luton University.[1]
Abbey began his career with Hitchin Town from where he joined Cambridge United in February 2000.
He soon established himself in the Cambridge side, earning a £350,000 move to Norwich City in December 2000.[2] However his time at Carrow Road was marred by two career threatening knee injuries, causing him to miss most of the 2003-04 promotion season, though he was given a championship medal at the end of the season. He was given a three month contract to prove his fitness at the start of the following season.[3] He spent September 2004 on loan at Boston United, moving to Wycombe Wanderers on a free transfer the following month. In November 2004 he moved to Bradford City and in March 2005 to Torquay United, but was released at the end of the 2004-05 season.
He joined Forest Green Rovers in August 2005, playing 26 times before being released in April 2006.[4]
He joined Kettering Town in August 2006 in time for the start of the 2006-07 Conference North season,[5] but was released in November.
In January 2007 he signed for Barton Rovers[6]
His younger brother Nathan is also a professional footballer, playing as a goalkeeper.
