Dixon, Will Used to hang around with Will when we were 14 ish, mainly in or around Oakhill Park in East Barnet. He was on Arsenal's books then, along with 2 or 3 other local lads. I think Will was the only one who made the grade. He was streets ahead of all the rest of us at football, yet it gives you some idea of the standard required to make it to the top level when you consider he never really established himself at Arsenal. Last saw him on tv playing for Swindon against Man Utd in the Watney Cup (I think), where he was up against George Best!
