Thought he'd get a chance this season with Ulloa likely to leave.

So we pay around £40k for him, develop him, loan him out and then sell him? With no first team chance? Fair enough he wants to do whats best for him but its a shame when we only have a few wingers that he at least didn't get a chance over pre-season.

Transfer fee received & about 1k per week off the wage bill? Slightly more room for a 13k per week full back cum winger maybe?

I'll look after the skirt
Seems like he'd been here longer than two years. He arrived with great reports of how he was the most exciting player to emerge from non league in years etc etc. Strangely, he never got within a sniff of first team action.
Can't blame him for moving on. Good luck to him.

I thought it was odd too ... indeed anyone leaving the club right now. I'd have thought SH would want a week or two to get a view on what he's got to work with. Not as if the window is about to close
Nice to see people caring so much about Dickenson leaving. Let's be honest, he wouldn't even get into the 1st team changing room to clean Ulloa's boots, let alone as part of the squad.
Best of luck to the lad, but he's no loss to the first team.

Exactly , maybe at Withdean when we were mid league 1 he could of got a chance.
You've got to be very good to be a top end championship striker and by age 21 if he hasnt proven it then unlikely to. Someone moaned about how we developed him etc but thats the name of the game , every now and then you get a gem but by age 20 / 21 you know how its going.
Who was the last decent striker we developed. Can't honestly remember

Thought he looked very decent in the couple of friendly/cup/u21 games I've seen. Big, strong, a direct runner, and with genuine pace. I usually trust the club's judgement with regard to youngsters but he's the first one I'm a bit pensive about - I thought this might be his year to break into the senior squad.
