Carl Matthew Dickinson (born 31 March 1987) is an English professional footballer who plays as a defender for EFL League Two club Notts County.
Dickinson started his career at Stoke City, and had loan spells at Víkingur (Iceland) and Blackpool before helping the "Potters" to win promotion into the Premier League in 2007–08. He then dropped out of the first team picture, and spent time on loan at Leeds United, Barnsley, and Portsmouth. He was sold to Watford for a £250,000 fee in July 2011 and was a first team regular in the 2011–12 campaign. However he fell out of favour the following season and was loaned out to Portsmouth and Coventry City before being allowed to join Port Vale on a free transfer in July 2013. He spent three years with Port Vale, and also served as club captain, before he moved on to Notts County in June 2016.
Dickinson spent his early youth at the Derby County academy, before he joined Stoke City's academy in 2002. He made his senior debut on 11 December 2004, replacing Carl Asaba in the last moments of a 1–0 victory over Coventry City at the Britannia Stadium.
His next first team involvement came on 1 April 2006, when he played the full ninety minutes of a 1–1 draw with Sheffield United. Two days later he signed a professional contract with the club. He played four further Championship games in what remained of the 2005–06 season. His chance to shine at first team level came after manager Johan Boskamp decided to blood Stoke's young players.
