AUFC 1910 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 A shameless act of burglary right enough from Ayr in the dying embers of a game where they contributed the square root of hee-haw. Reading some of the comments from Ian McCall and the Ayr fans. Auld Ayr wham ne'er a town surpasses for people who need a pair o' glasses!

The ball was away, McDaid was on the ground yet your player kept going and chose to land right on top of him. A few cynical challenges was all you had to offer until the sending off.

Just now, albundy said: Looked a decent strike, I'm expecting a Roberto Carlos styled swerve on the shot though for a keeper of Aldo's quality to not even attempt a save. Sometimes you just have to watch it to be honest. It's a goalkeepery thing, but occasionally you get a shot where you just think 'nope'. Well, I do anyway! I suspect if Aldo had dived for it then nobody would've given it a second thought, but he (or any other 'keeper in this league for that matter) wouldn't have got anywhere near it imho.

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Aitken had his budget significantly reduced this season. I'm fully behind Aitken, and I'd like him to stay beyond his current deal. I'd also agree with you that anyone blaming him for us drawing with the worst team to visit the Rock since it's existance is completely in the wrong.But...What evidence do you have for the above? From what I've heard, Aitken's budget is the most any Dumbarton manager has ever worked with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albundy Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 2 minutes ago, Howlin' Wilf said: I also can't believe the comments here about Steve Aitken - some borne out of almost withering contempt and others damning with faint praise. Aitken had his budget significantly reduced this season. He is working with a part time squad and doesn't even have a full bench to call on. There's an old London saying about people who place untreal expectations on people which runs "expecting people to do wonders and shit miracles". Aitken has done pretty well under difficult circumstances and he at least deserves a bit of credit for that. To be fair Wilf, I imagine part of the significant reduction was due his overspend the season before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Dumbarton FC should be docked 3 points for choosing to land on Ayr players and injure them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another incident which really hindered us was the Dumbarton defender deliberately injuring McDaid. Although we made a sub this followed by a sending off really knackered our formation later in the game. Your head has been removed from your neck. Please hand in your vote at the door and return to the sea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munro7 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 A lot of comments from Dumbarton fans about dominating the game. To be fair if you don't dominate against a team down to 10 men from the 25 minute or whatever then you've got problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Terrace Gazza Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Btw what a crap hole that "stadium" was makes Methil seem quite nice. Don't know why you guys are not fully supportive of the new stadium as that place is appalling. Parking dreadful, cost excessive, view rubbish, capacity embarrassing! Must be the smallest capacity in Scotland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
