  • It’s usually the defensive side of the game which most wingers have to learn before they are good enough/trusted to play for the first team. For all their quality, Lookman & Rak-Sakyi were very good at the defensive side of the game. 
  • TC is a good recent example a smaller forward player who had upped his physical strength without losing all his pace and agility. If fact, TC is properly strong this season and has given bigger players a tough time on occasions this season.

    Could do with a goal or an assist though? 
  • I'm pretty sure I said we would not see much of him this season and despite Saturday, i still believe this, for Lge 1 games.

    He is still a raw talent form a playing background that means he will need to be developed carefully last we snuff out his potential before it is realised.

    Also think it’s great Dixon came on when the Mount Pleasant youth team were watching.  I know he’s not a Mount Pleasant boy but a few of them posted pictures with him and Karoy at the training ground. It’s just nice
    What’s important is for those boys to see a lad from one of their ghetto’s making it to that stage.  From relative obscurity in Jamaica to a massive league over here.  That cameo will have only strengthened the links with Mount Pleasant 
    Exactly my point, not sure I’d have used the word ghetto though with no knowledge of how any of them grew up!
    I have actually been told he was from a very meagre background.  The word ghetto was what I was actually told.  This move will change his, and presumably his family's lives.

  • Hope we get to see more of him. He's exactly the type of player that a full back will hate to defend against late on in a game.

    At the very least he should be getting the next BSM trophy games.
    He’ll hopefully give us a good alternative to TC and take some pressure off him too. Having one attacking player who runs at defenders in the 18 isn’t enough, especially if one is starting.

    Personally I’d ignore the negative comments on Dixon. None of us know what the outcome will be but the club and other clubs have seen something over and above the norm and decided to go after a 19 year old full international from a long way away in the hope that it pays off. Hes been given a four year deal so I’d imagine that we’re very hopeful we’ll make a handsome return in two or three years or it could be it took something like that to entice him to choose us over the competition. If anyone can explain to me a single negative in this I’d be grateful because I can’t see one.
    Peculiar that SHG made a negative comment re Dixon on the Shrewsbury A thread on 15th September, as he said the above when we signed him.

  • How do TWO players lose their passports. To paraphrase Oscar Wilde....." to lose 1 may seem unfortunate, to lose two looks like carelessness". 

    Best be checking all HANDBAGS at Worthing station. 
  • I'm glad it was only a lost passport, reaping the benefit of getting the call up and not having to play and yet still enough to get the Peterboro game off is almost banter-like. I was dreading he picked up an injury!

    Not "banter" if he can't return to London in time as he has no passport

    Are we sure he actually left London in the first place?

    This has to be a cover story, surely?

     It did cross my mind too.

    I thought in this day and age when teams travel they have administrators who take charge of all logistics including gathering passports etc to ensure its all as smooth as possible.

    Could equally be innocent of course.

    Think you're overestimating the amount of staff a smaller nation like Jamaica will have. I suspect they might have someone in charge of this but they also have 6,000 other things to do so things slip through the net

    Yes, my initial thought too. Been bad boys / out late etc etc. Maybe.....

    Maybe. But even a school trip might gather passports. 

    Purely speculating. 

    He has however not been used much by us yet when he might have so allows a 2+2=5 conspiracy theory to start the week with ! 😉😀
  • my first thought it was a blag to avoid testers or something of the like.
