  3. First of all, I realised I cocked up my username after I'd made it. Secondly of all, thank you all so much for your kind words about the passing of my father, Campbell Smith. I have been tearing up reading them all. Dumbarton football club was his life! When I was a bairn he was a steward at bigheeded and used to take me down every week. He was placed at the top of the stairs of the main stand so he could watch all of the match. He got me selling programmes and earning a few quid every week at the old ground. When the move to the rock happened, we missed the first match because we were in Florida but we were back for the following. After a while, presumably because he then had to work with his back to the game, he chucked being a steward to become a full time fan again like he was when he was a boy going with his grandfather. He took my sister, Kerry, down to the matches, but she was only interested in playing dolls with her cousin, Alison. I moved away in 2014 and started comibg to the matches for a few months before I left so I can spend a few weekends drinking beer and wawashing the sons with the old man and I've been to a few since I got back. I'll be taking up his season ticket for the remainder of the season so deepest apologies to Robert, katrina and the bankie in front for the shite banter you're gonna have to hear for the next few weeks! A special thank you to the club for the kind tribute on the Web page today as well. Thank you all. Reading these does help a lot with what we're going through at the moment which has been frankly awful. He was an amazing man, father, husband, friend and my personal hero who I will never forget! See you all very soon from Sean M72! Sean Smith
