SPECULATION - Dean Whitehead

[friday fan]

I know its Teamtalk but............Sunderland captain Dean Whitehead is set to make a surprise exit.

Would it be safe to bet he will be an exchange for Hunt. Now I'm waiting for the dodding

[Wycombe Royal]

Stoke want him.

[Row Z Royal]

It would save him remembering to pass to the blokes in blue and white I suppose.

[brendywendy]

He rejected us before, what would make you think he would want to come to us now?

the club he loves,and where he was club captain, doesnt want him any more.

[PEARCEY]

I suspect he would prefer Stoke as its a bit nearer his own stamping ground than Reading and they are in the Premiership

[Only one Trevor Morley]

I thought his old stamping ground was oxfordshire.....

[PEARCEY]

I thought his old stamping ground was oxfordshire.....

Yep he played for them(Oxford Utd) but didn't think he was from there originally...perhaps I should have one of these though If he was then I guess it would increase our chances

Thats the second time you have caught me out you b****r ..the first time was over my accumulated bet for the Grand National.

Whitehead is from Abingdon, which has in the past caused people to think he might want to return "home" to this area. I'm not sure that he has ever expressed that desire and seems to have preferred to remain at Sunderland in recent years.
