Sligo Rovers Pays Tribute To Dixie

[TrixyStevens]

A fantastic piece in the Echo about Dixie's time in Ireland and the impression he left on the small town of Sligo. The man was class personified.

It's true that people around the town still talk about him to this day, particularly the story about him putting 5 past Waterford and didn't even break a sweat is legendary

Interesting read.

Hopefully they'll be paying tribute to the ultra-boss Seamus Coleman in the years to come.
