  1. I think ur kidding yourself on. Most players go part time as a last resort and only if getting severely weighed in.

    I'm sure there was figures in the 600 p/w region that Dumbarton players where on with there weekly wage and salary from jobs. Probably more than what most full time teams can offer at this level.

  2. That has to be the worst 4 fixtures we could have drawn... Rangers aside.

    Sat 8 August Hibernian Home

    Sat 15 August St. Mirren Away
    Sat 22 August Queen of the South Home
    Sat 29 August Falkirk Away

    Think Smith might be able to do a job if hes given a good run at it.

  3. We're being linked with 6"4 Albion Rovers striker, Mark McGuigan on the League 2 transfers thread. Hit 11 goals this season. Stranraer and Dunfermline also interested apparently.

    This is the first time hes ever scored double figures in a season I think. This is hopefully a nonsense story.

  4. Just checking back on this seasons league attendances and deduce our average home league attendance is 1074. This despite having the big 3 in the league this season. If you remove a third as away supporters you are talking less than 700.regular dumbarton supporters despite now being in the championship for three seasons.

    Compare this with season 2003-04 when we finished third in division two which was then the third tier. That season the league average was 1050 despite playing against teams like airdrie Forfar and Berwick rangers. It would appear the dumbarton core support continues to drop despite the side being relatively successful. Hopefully the move to a new and bigger ground will attract more supporters or our core support could dwindle to 300- 400 especially if we are relegated in the future.

    Could be due to the increase in ticket prices. 20-22 quid to watch Dumbarton when people can hop on a bus at the harp/masonic and go watch celtic or rangers respectively for an extra tenner.
