After guesting for Walsall during the war he rejoined Vale in October 1944. He played three war league matches before moving on to Guildford City, probably in the autumn of 1945. He played one First Division game for Billy Birrell's Chelsea in 1946–47. He then left Stamford Bridge, and signed with Bournemouth & Boscombe Athletic. He scored twice in 16 league games in 1947–48, helping Harry Lowe's "Cherries" to a second-place finish in the Third Division South. Dickie then left both Dean Court and the Football League.
