Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Unfortunately we don’t have a sponsor offering jobsWe didn't just magically pull a sponsor out our farter. I know the commercial director and he absolutely bursts his balls to secure sponsors and the likes. Our previous sponsor actually pulled out of their deal a year early and we managed to get C&G systems on board as their replacement due to hard work and being able to sell the club to them. They really bought into the plans we have to turn DFC into a community club.Raith could've had something similar had they gone part-time and put the graft in to find a sponsor who could offer players a chance at work outside of football. Previously we used to arrange for players to complete personal trainer courses and the likes and that helped us secure full-time players when we were in the Championship. You need to be clever about it and put in the hard work, numerous part-time clubs over the years have done it, right down to junior level. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 A board that actually make efforts on the commercial front rather than just taking sly/not really sly digs at the fans. What the f**k is that sorcery? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do C&G not fill vacant posts deliberately so as to employ part time players that sign for Dumbarton ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck to him if he signs but he left us because he wasn’t a guaranteed starter so strange that he’s on trial with you lot.

I heard C&G had to knock back a recent rail project because Dumbarton hadn't signed enough workers for them. 7 hours ago, McGuigan1978 said: Out of interest, is the person in charge of C&G a Dumbarton fan, or someone with local roots? Probably wouldn't consider them die hard fans but local guys with a soft spot for DFC. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't get on with McCall, made worse by when he was dropped and replaced. He told us he would be off even if he had got back in the team at the player sponsor night before he then did get back in the team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
