Playing career

Southampton

Norman Dean first joined Southampton in September 1961 as an amateur with the club's nursery side, CPC Sports, while undertaking a welding apprenticeship. He spent a long time in the club's reserve team, scoring 66 goals in 105 appearances for the reserves. He made his first appearance in the first team in a League Cup tie at Tranmere Rovers on 13 September 1963, but had to wait until September 1965 for his first league appearance.

He was a valuable member of the team, alongside Terry Paine, John Sydenham and Martin Chivers that gained Southampton promotion from League Division 2 in 1965-66, scoring 11 goals in 18 appearances, including a hat-trick against local rivals, Portsmouth on 5 February 1966. After Saints reached Division 1, he was replaced by Ron Davies.[1]

Cardiff City

In March 1967, he was signed by Jimmy Scoular for Cardiff City for £6000. In the rest of the 1966-67 season he was virtually an ever-present, making 10 league appearances, scoring 2 goals. He also helped Cardiff to the Welsh FA Cup in 1967 and again the following season.

In the 1967-68 Cup Winners' Cup, in a team that included John Toshack in attack and Bob Wilson in goal, Dean scored 3 goals including the winner in the quarter-final play-off against Moscow Torpedo and 2 goals in the semi-final against Hamburg, which Cardiff lost 4-3 on aggregate.

Barnsley

In September 1968, he moved on to Barnsley where he stayed for 4 years, before a broken leg hastened his retirement.

After football

After retiring from playing, he returned to Corby where he worked for British Steel. He later worked for the Oxford University Press.

He is currently back in Hampshire, working for Southampton F.C. as a security official at the club's Staplewood training ground.
