Re: Accrington Stanley Squad

I'm glad that the experience of taking on two amateur hopefuls last term which didn't work out (Guthrie and Taylor) hasn't scared us off that talent pool. With those experiences still fresh in the memory, we may even be more well equipped to bring on a talent from such a background. The biggest challenge is often personal with the player, who has to adapt his lifestyle to that of a professional sportsman. There's little a club can do to teach a particular mentality, so that side of it is down to the player himself. I'm looking forward to seeing Dixon play. He seems to have a lot of good attributes to bring to the table. I hope he comes good.
