==Life and career==
In 1978, Furphy moved to the United States where he signed with the Detroit Express of the North American Soccer League. At the time the Express were coached by his father. On May 3, 1980, the Express sent Furphy to the Atlanta Chiefs for cash and the Chiefs' first round pick in the 1981 NASL Draft. The Express made the move as a result of fan dissatisfaction with Furphy playing for his father in Detroit.〔(Furphy shipped to Chiefs )〕 He spent two seasons with the Chiefs. In the fall of 1981, he signed with the Cleveland Force of the Major Indoor Soccer League and immediately established himself as a high scoring indoor soccer striker. On July 2, 1983, Furphy signed with the Detroit Express, now playing in the second division American Soccer League. He scored two goals in his debut the next day.〔''FURPHY SCORES BOTH GOALS NEW FORWARD MOTIVATES EXPRESS, 2-0'' Detroit Free Press (MI) - Sunday, July 3, 1983〕
He returned to the Force in the fall and played with them through the 1984–1985 season. However, tensions between him and coach Timo Liekoski came to a head that year and Furphy demanded to be traded. On October 24, 1985, the Force sent Furphy to the Kansas City Comets in exchange for the Comets' next three first round draft choices.〔''WOLSTEIN INSISTS HE GOT TOP VALUE FOR FURPHY'' Akron Beacon Journal (OH) - Thursday, October 24, 1985〕 Furphy began the season with Kansas City, but was traded to the Tacoma Stars in exchange for Dale Mitchell on February 6, 1986. By this time, Furphy had become a naturalized U.S. citizen.〔''STARS DEAL MITCHELL TO KC, LAND FURPHY'' Seattle Post-Intelligencer - Friday, February 7, 1986〕 Furphy finished the season in Tacoma, but was released by the team at the end of the season and signed with the Baltimore Blast.〔''1986 MISL PREVIEW'' San Diego Union, The (CA) - Wednesday, November 12, 1986〕 In 1987, Furphy returned to England to sign with Plymouth Argyle.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.greensonscreen.co.uk/gosdb-players2.asp?pid=315&scp=1,2,3,4,5,6,7 )〕 He made six appearances in the Second Division of the Football League over a three-week period on the left-wing and scored one goal.〔 In the fall of 1988, he signed with Bath City and played one game, a 2–0 victory over Merthyr Tydfil in a November 1988 Westgate Insurance Cup game.〔(Bath City F.C.
