Lewis Thomas Gobern (born January 20, 1985 in Birmingham) is an English footballer, who plays for Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Championship.
[edit] Playing career
Gobern is a product of Wolves' youth academy. He gained his first professional experience on loan at Hartlepool United during the 2004/05 season, where he made his senior debut on 2 November 2004 in a 1-0 win over Carlisle United in the Football League Trophy. He later had spells on loan at Blackpool and Bury, respectively, during the 2005/06 season.
He finally made his Wolves debut as a substitute in a 1-1 draw at Plymouth Argyle on 5 August 2006, the first game of Mick McCarthy's reign. He progressed to being a first team starter over Autumn 2006, and marked these appearances with two goals in successive games, against Crystal Palace and Leicester City.
However, his debut season was cut short by two separate hamstring injuries that kept him out of action after Christmas. He signed a new two-year contract in June 2007, but spent the whole of the 2007/08 season on the sidelines after suffering a knee injury in training.
