O'Kelly Isley III Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 43 minutes ago, Nowhereman said: One of the best players I have ever seen in a Sons jersey. Never missed a penalty and a free kick just outside the box was almost as good as a penalty when Charlie took it Not far off a goal every other game from the middle of the park Hmmmm....in the crucial 2-1 evening win over Stirling Albion at Boghead on 11th April 1972, Charlie had a first-half penalty blocked at the Turnberry End by George Young which he then followed up Harry Kane style to ram home for Sons opening goal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sons FC Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 (edited) The one thing I remember about Charlie was that his face was bright red inside 15 mins and he kept a hankie up his sleeve and was constantly wiping his nose. Condolences to his family and friends. Edited July 11, 2021 by Sons FC 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very clear too. I have saw it before. He loved that strip. It reminded him of Real Madrid! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is an abiding memory from my youth watching the Sons at Boghead. Opposing players always had a tough time playing against him.

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Is he one these guys we’re just signing for the sake if it so we can fulfill these daft league cup fixtures? Or is he an actual signing? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would we bother taking photos of him holding a Sons scarf if he's only here for a few weeks? Looks to me like the deal for Wilson (the Elgin full back) has fallen apart and Muir has been drafted in as the replacement. I'm glad the lad is an actual left back as we seemed to be signing up about 8 players who can fill in at right back with nothing on the other side. Having been released by Motherwell in the summer hopefully he's got a fire in his belly to succeed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the snudge Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 It's refreshing to see Fraz working quickly on a plan B whereas it felt like Jim Duffy didn't have a plan A. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Have you sold out the game tomorrow? If any of my good Dumbarton bretheren would like to get me a fly ticket please drop into my DMs. I am a very lovely kisser. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Moonster Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Andy Hosie involved in some criminal shit? Who could've guessed it. He should've been chased away from the club years ago but too many Sons fans thought it was fine because his name is familiar. He's a fucking dodgy b*****d that really should be in jail for his previous fraudulent misdemeanours. We're now apparently being told of evidence that he owes some money to a gangster and he's trying to sell our assets off to pay them. In addition to that, some c**t called Andy Sweeney, who we've never fucking heard of, claims to own all of our assets. If any Sons fans (or Bill Heaney for that matter) have evidence of these emails I would strongly suggest involving the police. I would also strongly advise sharing it with the Trust representative so that the fans can be reliably informed rather than reading existential crisis stuff in a fucking retired journalists blog. John Steele needs to give his side of this immediately too. What a fucking shambles. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
