Worth keeping as second choice I reckon and if he gets some confidence back could push Targett. Yeah I was hoping he would be clear competition for Targett this year so we could jettison Ritchie and not have to worry about actually playing Dummett. But we've had 3 friendlies now and he hasn't played a minute. It doesn't seem likely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can barely remember what he was like anyway and playing under Bruce is a hiding to nowt. As you say, even if he got peddled now it’d be at the bottom of his potential value. Does he count as homegrown? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 One of those who's been kept on too long but overall he's served the club well and judging by what Howe has said lately he's an excellent pro and has tried to help the group despite being reduced to "giving Wood a breather for 5 mins" at best last season. Really hope it works out for him, if he can stay fit and play 30+ matches he should be bagging 15 goals in that league no bother. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikejaxer Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Always remember fondly of him for helping getting us out of that shite league with its wank refs and wank teams. Hopefully he can still bag them in for Stoke. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 I’m glad he’s going and hopefully getting some playing time in his final years. He did really well for us in the Championship, but just couldn’t take make that jump up in the Premier League. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought he looked decidedly average in them games , looks too slight and weak/ nervous on the ball to make a prem player imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow this brought back some memories, the ones that stick out the most were 9 men at Forest I think, and the penalty being ruled out where the crowd knew the rules better than the officials Good luck to Dwight Edited July 20, 2022 by Sean Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
