Dean Sturridge signed for the Harriers in a surprise move just prior to the start of the 2006-07 season. This prolific and pacey striker once played in the Premiership with Derby County, Leicester City and Wolverhampton Wanderers but after joining QPR in 2005 he received a hamstring injury and was released before his contract with them finished. He was hoping to get back to full fitness and bag a few goals with us but after just six games he received an injury that was to end his playing career. He then took a back room job with the club and helped out with striker coaching etc but was finally released at the end of the season. | |||
