Paul Dixon Biography

Paul Dixon is one of the most popular and richest Association Football Player who was born on February 22, 1960 in Derry, Derry, United Kingdom. Paul Kenneth Dixon (born 22 February 1960) is a retired professional footballer who played as a central defender. Born in Derry, Northern Ireland, he joined English club Burnley as a 16-year-old and went on to play 24 Football League matches for the Turf Moor club but missed long periods through injury during his time in England. In 1983, following his release from Burnley, Dixon moved back to Ireland to play for Glentoran.

The injury he had suffered caused Dixon to miss almost all of the following season, as he made only two first-team appearances during the 1980–81 campaign. He was used sparingly in the league in 1981–82, making nine appearances in total as the team were crowned champions of the Third Division, although he did play four matches in the FA Cup as Burnley reached the Fourth Round before losing 0–1 to Shrewsbury Town at Gay Meadow in January 1982. Dixon played his final game for Burnley in the 3–5 home defeat to Southend United on 20 April 1982. He remained at the club for a further year but did not appear for the first team again and was released in the summer of 1983. He subsequently returned to Northern Ireland, signing for Belfast-based club Glentoran, where he ended his playing career.

He went on to play 14 more times in the league, scoring once, forming a regular partnership with Overson in the heart of the defense. However, injury forced him to miss the remainder of the campaign as the team suffered relegation to the Third Division for the first time in their history.
