He should be able to start training next week all going well which is good news as initially we thought it could have been a cracked rib because he was passing blood and was in a lot of pain.

came football good great job keen mentally morning respect saturday stay wished
I was very keen for Dennis to stay but he came in on Saturday morning and said he didn't think it was right to stay on and I wished him all the best.

At the end of the day he has got to be mentally right and he told me he wasn't and you have to respect his decision. He's been a great professional.
I thought I did very well for the club,
