Joseph "Joe" Dumighan (born 25 September 1938) is an English former footballer who played in the Football League as a forward for Darlington.[2]

Dumighan was born in Langley Park, County Durham.[1] As a youngster, he played for the works team of Mackay's carpet factory in Durham[3] before joining Sunderland. He never played for their first team, and moved on to Darlington. After four appearances and one goal in the Fourth Division,[1] he moved on to Horden Colliery Welfare and South Shields of the North Eastern League.[3]

Dumighan played cricket at County League level, and retained an involvement with football as a scout for Sunderland.[3]
