Club career[]

Comley came through the youth system at Crystal Palace and made his English Football League debut on 17 March 2009 as a substitute against Barnsley. He made three further appearances in the league in the 2008–09 season, and played twice in the FA Cup the following season, before being released in June 2010.

Comley was without a club in the 2010–11 season due to injury, and trained with Tottenham Hotspur in the first half of the 2011–12 season before joining Canvey Island in January 2012.[2]

He then joined St Albans City for the remainder of the season. For 2012–13, he joined Kettering Town, but made no appearances due to injury and rejoined St Albans in December 2012.[3]

Comley joined Maidenhead United on loan in February 2016. The loan was made permanent at the end of the season.[4] Comley left the Magpies at the end of the 2020-21 season after 196 appearances since first joining the club.[5]

Comley joined Walton Casuals in October 2021.[6] He joined Boreham Wood the following month.[7]
