I know there's a few on here who know him and I was a bit shocked when I saw it on the HJC facebook page. Thoughts and prayers with his family.
The death of Alan Dixon (Dicko) has saddened us all at the HJC. Alan was a passionate campaigner whose searing honesty stood in sharp contrast to the lies churned out over many years. A teenager at the time of the disaster, he never recovered from his experiences of that day. He was passionate about the Sun boycott and was highly vocal of those close to the disaster whom he thought had compromised in the fight for justice. Alan, like a lot of us, refused to acknowledge an understanding of compromise. He stood shoulder to shoulder with his fellow campaigners at the HJC and bravely faced the opposition head on. He hated 'brand Hillsborough' and the emerging celebrity culture surrounding Hillsborough that some bought into. The HJC will continue to fight for the real truth in memory of Alan and will continue to give a voice to all survivors who remain the forgotten victims of Hillsborough. RIP Alan Dixon.
