At last Hartlepools United have signed a new full back, in Charlie Dixon, of Middlesbrough Reserves. He has had good experience with the Tees-siders, but there has been such a galaxy of talent in the back division at Ayresome Park for some time past that Dixon has had little scope. He has figured with the first team, but that was some time ago. Dixon is also well known at Darlington. He is 31 years of age, stands 5ft. 8in., and weighs 11st. He will play on Saturday as partner to Walker.
