Welcome Will Spetch, Corby Moore & Jack Dickson

September 11, 2023

Dorchester Town Football Club are delighted to announce the signings of Will Spetch, Corby Moore and Jack Dickson.

The trio arrive at The Avenue following interest from several clubs where they were all key parts of a highly successful Poole Town side, making a combined total of nearly 1,000 appearances over the years.

Central defender Spetch is Poole's record appearance holder making 491 appearances and scoring 64 goals in a hugely successful career which included winning five league titles, a Southern League Cup plus six Dorset Senior Cups over a near 18 year association at the club.

Midfielder Moore, who was a member of the Southampton Academy, made his Dolphins debut in the 2015/16 season before going onto make 260 appearances in red and white, as well as featuring for Forest Green Rovers, Chelmsford City, Bishop's Stortford and Frome Town.

Dickson is a highly versatile right sided player, who is comfortable both in defence and attack, and arrives at The Avenue having originally made his Poole Town debut in 2013 before going on to make 242 appearances, as well as spells in the USA and also with Weymouth.

Speaking on his new signings, boss Glenn Howes said: "Without the sad departure of Tom Killick from Poole Town clearly the recruitment of these 3 players wouldn’t be possible at all - but as soon as we found out we had a small chance of signing these 3 players, like many other local non-league teams we threw our hat in the ring, and thankfully for us they’ve chosen to continue their careers with Dorchester Town."

"Will Spetch is a stalwart of 450+ games at this level and above and will bring not only huge experience, but great leadership qualities that we’ve been craving. I don’t think there is many better players in the league who are so accomplished in both boxes and Will’s statistics speaks for themselves."

"Corby Moore is approaching his peak and has amassed significant experience by demonstrating his qualities on a consistent basis, which has lead to Corby being one of the most complete central midfielders the league has to offer. His profile will certainly compliment and strengthen our engine room further."

"Jack Dickson, like our other two signings needs little to no introduction, however it gives us great pleasure introducing such an exciting talent to our supporters and club. Quite simply JD has proven himself to be one of the most offensive minded full-backs the league has to offer and in turn this has resulted in a number of goal contributions over the years."

Subject to Southern League approval, the trio are all set to feature in the matchday squad and could make their Magpies debuts as we visit Hungerford Town tomorrow evening.

Welcome Will, Corby and Jack!
