A bustling and hard-running striker, Hadley scored Harriers' first ever goal in the Football League against Torquay.

But he has not scored as regularly as in non-league after signing on a free transfer from Mansfield in June 1998.

Hadley started off at Halesowen Town before being snapped up by Derby County as a teenager.

Mansfield were quickly in for him and he proved a popular figure over three-and-a-half seasons at the lower levels.

However, a knee injury threatened his career and reduced his pace.

Hadley has had a slow start to the season and fell out of favour before joining Dr Martens League Premier Division Worcester City on loan.

League appearances/goals: Mansfield (93/94) 14/5, (94/95) 39/14, (95/96) 33/8, (96/97) 36/4, (97/98) 2, Harriers (00/01) 33/6.

This season: 5 games, 7 sub appearances.

Status: On a month's loan at Worcester City.
