We had many left backs on trial with Slade
Jamil Roberts from Plymouth
Andrew Fox
Paul Dixon
Jordan Mustoe
And then Jordan Aitkou came in later on and played in Disleys benefit game

He was very poor. No doubt. He had no pace, he couldn't get up and down the line, was beaten too easily and gave the ball away very frequently. Sure we'll have come to some sort of settlement with him meaning we can potentially put it towards some penetrative players at the sharp end of the pitch.

A player with his pedigree should have been better. Clearly he wasn't happy and something was affecting his game. I hope he sorts it.

So he's right then, he would beat Menno Willems for the number 3 shirt in the worst ever Town team.


Got him mixed up with Fostervold, same era.

Surely it would be better directing all this bile towards the man who signed him in the first place.
Also, I have been watching town since 1966 and there have been many players much worse than Dixon who have played for GTFC. AB Mk3 signed a left back( whose name I can't recall ) and a centre back ( Heywood ? ) who were certainly worse than Dixon.

I wish Dixon well and hope he can find a club closer to home that suits him and his family.

Was Dixon really much worse than Ridley, for instance?

yes, but they weren't full internationals with a solid Championship and Scottish Prem background.That's what's so disappointing

Bit of a relief for both player and club that is the only way it feels to me.
