My dream move – Duguid
KARL Duguid, who today returned to Colchester United on a one-year contract, could not have chosen a better move.
KARL Duguid, who today returned to Colchester United on a one-year contract, could not have dreamt up a better move.
The 33-year-old, who made his U’s first team debut back in 1995 and stayed with the club until 2008, will play for a U’s XI at Woodbridge Town in a pre-season friendly this evening.
Speaking to the EADT this afternoon, Duguid enthused: “The aim was to find a new club before the start of the new season, and it couldn’t have worked out any more perfectly than this!
“It’s a dream move for me, but I didn’t expect it at all.
“It came out of the blue. The manager (John Ward) had a chat with me on Monday, and he then went away to talk it over with the chairman (Robbie Cowling).
“I had trained with the squad before they went away to Holland, and to be honest I really missed it when they were away.
