maffff Interesting SCIAG you mention Hyam - the weirdest loan with Pompey and couldn't get anywhere near their team.
Dickie, however, has had a fair amount of experience with Cheltenham and shown he's got quite a lot of potential to him.
The two of them seemed to forge a good partnership in the youth team, but right now they'd be competing against each other for one reserve spot and you'd have to think Dickie is ahead of Hyam....?
I seem to recall Hyam being praised by their manager for attitude. Went in on loan just as they started winning games. Manager didn't want to disrupt winning side.
