    Froxy saying on Instagram it's his last week in Scotland.

    When Stelios was freed last week I figured both could be offski pdq. Wonder if he'll have any part to play in these two games - needs must and all hands to the pump and to Hell with any other medium-term considerations.

    He might just mean he's going back to Cyprus for the summer (I don't think he has another job?). However, I'd read it as him being on his way.

    Aitken seems so determined not to give him any game time that it's unlikely he'll change his mind now. The only way I see him making an appearance is if we're behind and going for broke by throwing him on. Which, to be fair, could well happen.

  2. Players compensate fans for the 6-0 pumping at Palmerston - https://sonstrust.wordpress.com/2016/04/19/players-back-the-fans/

     

    I'm quite surprised at that.  I felt the shouts for compensation by a few fans were OTT and really quite against the notion of supporting a club.  We support Dumbarton, surely anyone following us (especially in this division) knows that there's a chance of an absolute pumping?  I found it strange that some feel like there's a sort of minimum score we need to lose by for the performance to be acceptable.  Or to put it another way - was losing 2-0 to Livi not a more disappointing away day, given that we were expected to take something from the game and turned in a truly horrific performance with barely a shot on goal?

     

    Having said that, I doff my cap to the players for doing it.  They really didn't have to and it shows that they hurt in the same way fans do after a bad defeat. Hopefully the fans now turn up and back the team for the last 3 games with this Saturday and at Alloa on the last day (where the bus will now be subsidised) being arguably the two biggest games of our stint in this division.

     

    Fantastic gesture, but totally unnecessary. I'm frankly amazed anyone was actually shouting for compensation. Wasn't so long ago we were getting absolute doings off the likes of Forfar and Montrose, some folk need a bit of perspective.

  3. We could maybe get-

    Longridge from Livi if they go down

    Ohara on Loan from Falkirk

    Scullion from Morton

    Russell from QOS

    Aggy if released by St mirren

    I'm sure there's many more.

    Beanie back in a Sons strip would be phenomenal.

    Will never happen, though.

  4. We're five ahead of Livingston with four to play. It's not so many years ago that Morton were ten ahead with four to go, and we finished a point ahead of them, if I've remembered the situation correctly. That's why I'm in Nowhereman's camp, and will be taking nothing for granted.

     

    Morton Hibsing it long before Hibsing it was fashionable.

  5. Finished 4-1 Stenny. The terrier was rampant apparently.

     

    The very game that launched the sparkling career of a certain Joe Savage, while we gubbed Arbroath at Gayfield to take it to the last day of the season, at home to Alloa.

     

    We lost out on promotion, which could ultimately be traced back to John Gemmell's extra-time winner against us at New Douglas Park.

     

    That was a great season.

  6. My bad. It's late and not the best time for calculations.

    That makes it better. That's a massive step we've taken tonight then.

     

    Knew my Maths degree would come in handy one day  ;)

     

    Big step indeed taken tonight. I hope we approach the Raith game in the same manner.

  7. Whoa, easy tiger.

    In reality we're playin QoTS, whose record against us is unquestionably good, then against a confirmed play-off team, then a resurgent St. MIrren , followed by another play-off team, and finish against a team with nothing to lose.

    It will not be easy to get two wins from any of these games, in my opinion.

    Remember it's the Sons we're discussing here, and this hasn't been the easiest season!

     

    I didn't say it would be easy.

  8. For any Sons fans hoping to watch Tuesday's game on Rangers TV then you're out of luck. Champions league dictatorship in full flow that evening.

    I might need to just grate my dick and go now :(

    Even worse that they can win the league against us after that Raith equaliser.

  9. I'd say livi will get one win looking at that, on paper, maybe a point at cappielow, but raith May take their foot of the gas

    Looking at our remaining fixtures, possibly 7/21 Morton, alloa wins, point against st mirren?

    On paper, they should have got nothing today. Means f**k all.
