Dicker in line for Seagulls start

Dicker made his first appearance of the campaign as a second-half substitute against his former club Stockport on Saturday. Although he could not save the nine-man Seagulls from a 4-2 defeat, the Irishman impressed manager Slade and could be in contention for Friday night's trip to Millwall. "I thought Dicker's contribution coming on was the best to date," said Slade. "He has stepped up a gear now from pre-season. I thought he did well."
