Career
He signed for Leeds United in September 1958, but, not having settled, he returned home to Ards in November 1959. The international appearance brought Humphries to the attention of Jimmy Hill, the Coventry manager, who paid Ards a £14,000 transfer fee a week after the match in Wales. Humphries ended up with fourteen international caps.
During the following season he moved to Second Division Swansea Town, but ended up relegated at the end of the season, and relegated again to the Fourth Division in 1967.
He was released by Swansea in June 1968, and returned to Northern Ireland for his third spell at Ards. He retired as a player in 1976, aged 39, but served as Ards manager until 1978, and again from 1980-1982.
He then managed Bangor from 1983-1985.
