I’d have him over Ramsbottom every day of the week. but it’s also probably a symptom of him not being used to having complete donkeys infront of him. Arguably he should have got used to that after a few games. I’d have him over Ramsbottom every day of the week. Indeed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, hence why I also said it was a criticism considering it was happening numerous times a game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FifeSons Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Wasn’t Wright also decent at Partick? Whereas Ramsbottom came with no shortage of warnings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallochSonsFan Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Ramsbottom was probably the better shot stopper. Wright made fewer mistakes and was more confident at crosses. Sam was always good for at least a couple of scary mistakes in every game. He'd misjudge a cross. He would be slow coming off his line. He'd be too quick coming off his line. He'd hit the ball off his own defender. Neither were really good enough, but Wright was better than Ramsbottom overall. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockson Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Just sent this to the club office email account. I am emailing today about the present state of the club. I have been a Dumbarton supporter for over 50 years (albeit long-distance for the most part as I have lived in Fife for at least 30 of those) but have never felt so much despair at its prospects - not even when we went over a year without a win; not even when we finished dead last in the bottom Division of the Scottish Football League. I have no confidence in the present owners, no confidence in the board and no confidence in the present management of the playing side and I see no hope of improvement in the short term. As things stand any chance or promotion next season is a pipe-dream and there is the real prospect of being relegated from the SPFL altogether - a situation from which the club would not recover for a long time, if ever. I am sure I am far from the only Sons supporter who has these feelings. Many will be so disillusioned that they will cease to support the club - either via season ticket non-renewal or not turning up at the gate - until these matters change: and perhaps not even then. In the hope that it may lead to a concentration of minds to avert a real threat to the club's existence I would ask that you please convey these thoughts and fears to the board. Yours in sadness, 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 Hopefully we’ll find out tonight or tomorrow who’s all leaving, I’d imagine the players have been spoken to if Ramsbottom has confirmed he’s offski. I’d genuinely be quite happy to see everyone go bar wee Wilson. I’m hoping some/all of the 2 year deal mob decide they want to leave. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't say I know much about him but being able to run is at least an improvement on our last outfield signing from you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FifeSons Posted May 10, 2022 Share Posted May 10, 2022 A glaring omission of the current manager in that tweet. I guess because he was dropped. Interesting, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think someone said there’s 9 of them. Wilson, Wylde, Bonsky and maybe McGeever are the only ones that spring to mind? Cant imagine Farrell is going to have much of a budget from initial season ticket sales. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he is signed for season 22/23 and 23/24 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
