Open from 1.30pm and live music will start around 2pm. ^^^^ 4 minutes ago, Big Fifer said: Dumbarton fans, best place for a few shandys pre-match?

If it's around 1.30pm I'd recommend the bar in the home end at the stadium for some live music and a pint Alternatively the Stags Head would probably be your best shout, unless you fancy a bowling club.

DumbartonTheSons Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 To be honest, I’m not expecting a miraculous turnaround in fortunes over the next few weeks, unless everyone mysteriously declares themselves fit again, but I’m interested to see who goes and who comes in and goes out during the January transfer window Agreed, the defence is a mess and won’t be fixed overnight. I think there’s enough in the squad going forward to see some encouragement though.While I agree we aren't a 'quick fix' I think it could be surprising how much a bit of direction and some motivation from the sidelines could help us with an upturn in fortunes.

Yup. Even at the weekend (despite the result) we actually looked a lot better going forward. We got the ball wide a lot, created a few openings and actually played very few aimless long balls. It was like the players were playing with a little bit more freedom. It's just a shame that, Cammy Ballantyne aside, we were a defensive car crash.

Mon_The_Fife Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Duffy is certainly a solid appointment and will have the new manager bounce... just hopefully the bounce that Jim McIntrye had at Dundee. We have a full squad to pick from and it’s any 2 of 4 in form strikers to lead the line. Young has been changing the top 2 with good effect so don’t know which combination we will have. Dumbarton still have a few injuries so we should be going into this game with confidence and aiming for #9 in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fifer Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Somewhat unrelated question; has the Sons move from the rock been completely binned after that council decision? Would ask on the sons thread but there's all sorts of nostalgic nonsense going on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you get to my age it is one of the few pleasures left to you. Did anyone ever clean "Jimmy Boyle" written in shite of the wall inside the bog at Bayview? I thought it was hilarious and very clever. Oh dear, more nostalgia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our owners have the option of appealing the decision, but that probably involves using money they don't have. They haven't said a word really since the council decision, which slightly worries me. We can't really control what they do with the stadium, however we've got an excellent board in place now who are essentially operating separately from the owners and I have trust in them to keep the fan base updated when there's something to be known. 11 minutes ago, Bring Back Paddy Flannery said: Hopefully big Duff Stuff was booting baws at training last night. I heard he had them up Balloch park, doing sprints up the hill with Duffy standing at the top, screaming "ARBEIT" at them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I right in saying the rules state we must have a goalkeeper listed on the bench or have I made that up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
