Biography:
Capped as a Junior in March 1948 while playing for Linfield Swifts and as an Amateur while briefly with Arsenal, Joe Dubois' first taste of senior football came with Peter Doherty's Doncaster Rovers. He played eleven times in Rovers' 1949/50 Division Three (North) title winning side but soon fell from the firstteam reckoning. He dropped into non-league football with Bedford and by the time he signed for Grimsby in 1953 was working at Finningley Aerodrome. Despite making a scoring debut for the Mariners in a 2-0 home win over Accrington, Dubois soon dropped to the reserves. He finally enjoyed regular League football with Halifax through to February 1957 when he left the club by mutual consent.
