'''Barrington Edward "Barry" Hayles''' (born [[17 April]] [[1972]] in [[London]]) is an [[England|English]] born [[Jamaica]]n [[football (soccer)|football]] player currently playing for [[Leicester City F.C.|Leicester City]].


In 2006 at Amsterdam, Nandor Gyongyosi of Hungary won the title.
==Career==
Hayles was first noticed as a [[Stevenage Borough F.C.|Stevenage]] player in their [[FA Cup]] run before earning a move to [[Bristol Rovers F.C.|Bristol Rovers]] in 1997. After just one season with the Pirates, Hayles moved to [[Fulham F.C.|Fulham]] in 1998 and helped the club through two promotions to get to the [[FA Premier League]].
In 2004, he was released on a [[free transfer (soccer)|free transfer]] to [[Sheffield United F.C.|Sheffield United]], but was only there a couple of months before he moved to [[Millwall F.C.|Millwall]] for a nominal fee.


'''Mr Gay Europe Contest 2007''' was held in [[Budapest]] - one of the most liberal cities in Europe, [[August 5]] as part of Pride Island Europa, Central and Eastern Europe's largest new International GLBTQ celebration.
===Plymouth Argyle===
He was signed by [[Plymouth Argyle F.C.|Plymouth Argyle]] by new manager [[Ian Holloway]] for a fee of £100,000 prior to the 2006/2007 season, where he quickly established himself as a supporters' favourite after a hugely impressive start. He made his Plymouth Argyle debut against Wolverhampton Wanderers, where he also scored his first goal for Plymouth Argyle. He was lucky to have the goal put down as his name as it appeared to be headed over the line by fellow team mate [[Nick Chadwick]]. He has an enviable record of never being on a losing side when scoring for Argyle (14 goals, 7 wins and 7 draws) up to Saturday 28th April 2007.


===Leicester City===
==Previous winners==
On [[December 31]] [[2007]], Hayles joined [[Leicester City F.C.|Leicester City]] on an emergency loan deal, which became permanent for an undisclosed fee on [[January 2]], signing an 18-month contract.<ref name="Ollie completes Hayles capture">{{cite news
