I met Des just before last Christmas at an event in Nottingham.
We did talk for a few minutes, and whilst he said that he had a lot of time for the Wednesday fans, there was too many players at the club who, in his eyes, didn’t work as hard as they could.
He had huge praise for Mark Bright and Carlton Palmer, but when I turned the conversation onto Di Canio, it was clear to see that Des couldn’t stand him.
Forest were always his true love.
Excellent player who joined us a year or two too late. Imagine him in that 92-93 side…
