Playing career

Dicker began his career at Hornchurch Athletic before joining Chelmsford City in 1948. The inside forward scored 27 goals in 56 matches for the Essex club.[2] His goal scoring exploits attracted the attention of Tottenham Hotspur who paid £2,000 for his services in June, 1951. Dicker made 10 senior appearances and found the net twice between August, 1951 and December, 1952.[3] In addition he scored 15 goals in 42 reserve and A side matches.
