Whatever you say about Dunn. He was amazing against at Man United.
Luke- would love to have him back.

Yeah, signing him in the first place wasn’t the problem, but Money sticking with him (and Beasant) over Norris is the baffling thing. I think that's a big call. Norris clearly wasn't ready for the first team, even he admits that the loan spell at Braintree helped his development immensely. To my mind, our management of that stage of his career was spot on and the rewards are being seen now.

Why does everybody still pick on Dunn FFS?
Was he some greedy, lazy, money-grabbing journeyman?

He's hardly alone in not being quite up to scratch though is he?
I can understand he was not such a roaring success as, let's think here...Matthew Barnes-Homer, but that bad to deserve such long-lasting stick?
I just don't get why he is always singled out and lambasted when countless others are not.

Speaking of whom, where has nowandthen gone? The Wrexham board??

Very good point, and us fans need to remember without those crucial saves at home to Man U we would never have got our posh bog upgrade in the NRE. He should be seen as a legend (rather than useless) for that alone.

Port Vale has signed someone called Luke Hannant from Gateshead described as starting his career at Cambridge United. Can't say I remember the name at all, anyone else?

I'm sure the slightest hint that he's ever even set foot in Cambridge will be enough to send the forum into MELTDOWN about how we've WASTED such talent.

Nah, never heard of him either but says he was part of the youth set up. Joined at 14 after being released by Norwich, played for CRC and apparently featured in some pre season games before he was released/opted to leave at 18 and ended up at Gateshead after going to uni up north. Good luck to him.
