Dickson Out on Loan Again

Alan Pardew has decided to let striker Chris Dickson go out on loan again, this time to League One Gillingham.

Having just returned from a loan with Crewe he now joins the Gills for an initial one-month period, and has gone straight into their squad for their match with Nottingham Forest this weekend.

It has looked as though Chris Dickson would sign for the Gills in a loan capacity in the summer, having held talks with them, before deciding against it, but he has finally made this switch.

I have said that I wanted him to stay at the Valley after returning from Crewe, but a month away, maybe extended for a few months will not do him any harm, but I do hope that he returns around January time at the latest and is given a chance here.

There is a lot of competition for striking places at the Valley, but giving Chris Dickson a chance in the Addicks line-up during the Championship season is something that I would be looking at.

At 22 years of age people can't be saying that he is too young; as he is not, this season is the time to give him a go or we could well have another talented youngster waste away into nothingness.
