Dumbarton Rock Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 My last visit to he park was about 4pm Friday afternoon and it was it great condition. We are down at 9am to line it and I know it will still be fine because of the wind. The problem we have is the forecast of heavy rain from 3 til 5 just after high tide. Imo if the game gets called off it will be after 3pm. I've not had one puddle on the park this winter, this is it's biggest test. Good night folks.

cedrick1 Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Conditions awful out with rain and win. Ground conditions may well be playable but with wind we could have real challenging conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's earlier than that, I won't have left the house and probably wouldn't. You'll have wasted 30 minutes. Shocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Scrotum Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Gone are the days of phoning "local referee" Eddie Mulgrew and getting his decision based on his sobriety and the club's wishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howlin' Wilf Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 I see there is a new Instagram page involving "Dumbarton Ultras" They claim that Crowdfunding of £80 will allow them to "by" drums, flags, banners and scarves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that too but tbf it seems to be run by a mum of a boy and does seem to be a lot of much younger lads who are the "ultras". Unless it's a guise for the other idiots then I would doubt this lot are going to cause much trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I'm aware it's a group of very young lads who have the best of intentions. I think one of their mums is helping them run it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumbo Muir Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Any clues as to who the trialist listed as one of our subs is ? Is it Ewings ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2lgm Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Page dropped to the bench, Keiran Millar listed as No 5, Kyle Wilkie, Robertson and Hutton not listed. Has Murray lost patience with Hutton and Page or is it injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
