An England under-23 international defender, he made 402 of his 520 Football League career appearances at Stoke City between 1972 and 1982. He was voted Stoke's Player of the Year in 1980, and helped the "Potters" to win promotion out of the Second Division in 1978–79. He spent 1982 to 1985 with Wolves, and helped the club to win promotion into the First Division in 1982–83. He spent the remainder of the 1980s with various clubs across Europe, playing for IF Elfsborg, Port Vale, GAIS, Cork City, Landskrona BoIS, and Rocester. He won promotions to the Swedish top-flight with both Elfsborg and GAIS. Playing careerDodd was born in Stoke-on-Trent and grew up 'addicted' to football, taking a ball wherever he went.[4] He progress through the Stoke-on-Trent schools team and joined the club he grew up supporting – Stoke City – ahead of a number of interested clubs; he signed as an apprentice in April 1968, and turned professional in October 1969.[5] He was signed by chief scout Cliff Birks and played for the reserves at centre half but made his first team debut in midfield due to a large number of injuries to first team players. Early in 1973–74, Alan Bloor's injury handed Dodd and extended run in the side.[4] He took his chance with ease putting in a number of impressive performances and on Bloor's return manager Tony Waddington was unable to drop Dodd so moved him to right back. He was a very versatile player as the occupied all outfield positions bar centre forward during his time at Stoke.[4] His performances for Stoke alongside Denis Smith in 1974–75 propelled Dodd into the international scene and he made six appearances for the England under-23 team.[4][2] Stoke missed out on the title and after major damage to the Victoria Ground after a severe storm, Stoke were relegated to the Second Division in 1976–77.[4] From 10 January 1976 to April 1978 Dodd made 102 consecutive appearances which was ended when new manager Alan Durban brought in Manchester City's Mike Doyle. Durban reasoned that Second Division football required a more physical approach. Durban's decision irked Dodd, who said that: "It took the fun out of the game for me we only spoke about the opposition rather that how we were going to play, it was not good to watch or to play in".[4] Stoke gained promotion in 1978–79 but Dodd felt undervalued and was transfer listed after refusing a new contract.[4] However, he settled his differences and forced his way back into the side playing well to earn the player of the year award for 1979–80.[4] Dodd was granted a testimonial match against Port Vale in April 1982.[4] In November of the same year Dodd moved to Wolverhampton Wanderers for just £40,000. He later said that "I was surprised that I went so cheaply, but I was relieved to go. I couldn't see a future at Stoke under Richie Barker, but leaving the Victoria Ground was the most upsetting day of my footballing life".[4] At Molineux Dodd helped Wolves's gain promotion in 1982–83, but a poor 1983–84 campaign saw them make a quick return to the second tier 1983–84, though Dodd played well enough to win the club's Player of the Year award.[3] With back to back relegations looming he returned to Stoke in January 1985.[4] Stoke were enduring a truly woeful campaign themselves and Dodd who had now lost his pace was regularly exposed by the speed of the forwards in the First Division as Stoke suffered an embarrassing relegation.[4] Prompted by journalist Peter Keeling, Dodd moved to Sweden playing for IF Elfsborg, GAIS and Landskrona BoIS over a six-year period. He helped Elfsborg win promotion out of the Division 2 Södra into the Allsvenskan in 1985. He achieved the same feat with GAIS in 1987 (though the division had been renamed Division 1 Södra). He returned to Staffordshire in December 1986, playing three times on loan at Third Division side Port Vale during the Swedish mid-winter break and also played in Ireland for Cork City in December 1987.[4] He later played non-league football in Staffordshire for Rocester, Goldenhill Wanderers and Ball Haye Green.[4] Post retirementAt the age of 39 he retired from playing football to run a property rental company in Stoke-on-Trent.[4] A strict vegan,[5][6] he regularly competes in marathons across Staffordshire and also enjoys attending heavy metal concerts.[7] Career statisticsSource:[8][9]
