Going off his performances for us, I think he’s just returning to base.

Bit sad having an entire thread just to slag an ex player off. One with limited ability but seemed to give everything he had.

First team coach at Vale. Based on his suave good looks I thought he was an agent for a modelling agency Wasn't he in 'What We Do in the Shadows'? I vant to keek your leg He looks like one of the children of the night

Everytime I see or hear the name dean Whitehead I think 5.5m English pounds. I just think 'impressive chin, even better cheekbones' From the very first moment I saw him I thought "Joe, William, Jack and Averell Dalton's missing brother!"

Does this mean we can start the Dean Whitehead Bingo up again?

I would normally laugh this off but I'm sobbing 😭 after laughter as there is some truth to it. My god has Allen fell off the cart.

I live how random this seems
Apparently the link is the manager Valerien Ishmael, who appointed his assistant from Barnsley, and he worked with Whitehead at Vale last season.
Still, funny how Besiktas have ended up with an English lower-league coaching staff just through the Ishmael link

Perhaps he’s just good at his job ? It was a fact some of our supporters struggled to get their heads around in his playing career.

Very well appreciated by his team mates for his off the ball play aswell as on it.

His lads in the Stoke academy so interesting if all the family go or just Dean initially.

I don’t think that’s a great defence of a player though. 🤣

He was a virtual ever present in the league for two seasons aside from a couple of substitute appearances and suspensions, and still started 20 odd games in his third season. His last season he was involved for pretty much every game albeit he only started a dozen or so games…….

Like I said he never cemented his place in the side and couldn’t displace a good but in the grander scheme of things an average player in Whelan from the side. He also cost a fortune at that time and alls he could do was run. Forgive me for not having fond memories of him.

He’d come in for whoever was injured or when Whelan was having a bad spell. And then be shunted out again. Like Crouch he filled the gaps a regular season provides.

[/quote You opinion doesn’t surprise me Bayern ... you seem to have a bit of a blind spot regarding players who do the nitty gritty stuff and work for the team. Better just add this to the list of things we don’t agree about regarding SCFC 🙂
