Career
Port Vale
Ferrie was a youth-team player at Port Vale, when he moved on loan to Northern Premier League Division One South side Gresley in October 2015.[2] He made his debut for Gresley in an FA Trophy qualification match at Matlock Town on 31 October. He featured in three further games for the club, his final appearance coming against Market Drayton Town on 28 November.[3]
Dundee
After leaving Port Vale, Ferrie signed for Dundee in 2016.[4] He made his senior debut in the Scottish Premiership in a 4–0 defeat away to Rangers on 7 April 2018.[5] He appeared as a substitute for the injured Elliot Parish, and was praised by manager Neil McCann.[6] After the match, Ferrie described himself as being "numb", and said that he wished to play more first-team games.[4][7]
Ferrie was loaned to Scottish League Two club Stirling Albion in June 2018.[8] He made 28 appearances for the Binos during the 2018–19 season. His efforts for the club were rewarded by being named both Stirling's Young Player of the Year and Player of the Year.[9]
Ferrie signed a one-year extension with Dundee on 15 May 2019.[10] He was sent out on loan to Scottish League One side Falkirk on 31 January 2020, after signing another one-year extension with the "Dark Blues".[11]
Ferrie earned his first league start for Dundee in three seasons on 24 October 2020, earning his first win and clean sheet for the club in a 1–0 win over Greenock Morton at Dens Park.[12] However Adam Legzdins was signed the following month, whilst number one Jack Hamilton returned to fitness, and Ferrie made just two further appearances in the 2020–21 campaign.[13][14][15] He was on the bench for the play-off final win over Kilmarnock as Dundee secured promotion back into the Premiership,[16] and was released upon the expiry of his contract in June.[17]
Queen's Park
In July 2021, Ferrie signed for Scottish League One side Queen's Park as head coach Laurie Ellis looked to provide competition to established number one Willie Muir.[18] Ferrie would become the Spiders' starting goalkeeper midway through the 2021–22 season under new manager Owen Coyle, and would enjoy his second successive promotion as Queen's Park won the Championship play-offs in May 2022 by beating Airdrieonians 3–2 on aggregate after extra-time.[19] At the end of a successful debut season, Ferrie would agree to extend his contract with the club until 2024.[20]
