Dwight is a good friend of legendary West Indies cricketer Brian Lara. On the day Dwight
signed for United, Lara was in typical form, scoring 158 runs for Warwickshire.
Former United boss Tommy Docherty slated Dwight after witnessing his debut in 1990. The
Doc, now a radio pundit, said, "If that lad makes a First Division footballer, my
name is Mao Tse-Tung."
