Dean Peter Bowditch (born 15 June 1986 in Hertfordshire) is an English footballer who is currently without a club.
[edit] Career
He made his Ipswich Town first team debut at just 16 when he came off the bench against arch-rivals Norwich City and played a pivotal role in winning the game. He quickly rose to fame the following season, becoming the youngest Ipswich player to score a hat-trick, against Watford after this game then Ipswich Town manager Joe Royle exclaimed "The Secrets Out" now we realise he is dreadful!. He picked up the Dale Roberts award as the star performer from the academy for 2003–04. A series of major injuries and lack of confidence saw Bowditch drift away from the Ipswich first team, seeing him loaned to Burnley, Wycombe and Brighton without much success. He is currently recovering from injury and has been challenged by boss Jim Magilton to show the kind of form the staff know he is capable of. On 22 November he signed a one-month loan deal at Northampton Town.
On the 11 February it was revealed that Bowditch had agreed to re-join Brighton on loan, initially for one-month. On October 31, 2008 he joined Brentford on loan until January 2009, with an option to recall after one month.[1]
Ipswich released Bowditch at the end of the 2008–09 season [2]
