Dudley to leave permanantly

Craig Dudley has admitted his days at Athletic could be numbered. Dudley, who was one of 13 fringe players made available by Mick Wadsworth, is currently on loan at Scunthorpe. The 22-year-old wants to play first-team football, which he is doing at Glanford Park, and he believes Scunthorpe can reach the third division play-offs. Despite leaving less than a fortnight ago, Dudley already says he would consider making the loan spell full-time. Athletic may demand a transfer fee for him.
