When it was reported that the Edmonton Urban Council had adopted a statement by their housing committee which said: 'With regard to the case against J. Dimmock, a cheque for the amount of arrears of rent up to January 27 has been received from the secretary of Tottenham Hotspur Football Club, and further action has not, therefore, been taken against him.'
James Dimmock is the former Hotspur player, who also appeared for England. There had been a claim for possession of the house at Edmonton, where he lives, but his old club came to the rescue and saved his home.
"In consequence of difficulties he has had to sell many of his football medals and much of the furniture in his house in order to provide for his wife and five children. He is now living on unemployment pay." - Thursday, 1 March 1934, The Sunderland Echo and Shipping Gazette
