squeezeboxson Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Another thing I really don't see happening is Mark Brown leaving the club. Regardless of the fact he is still contracted until the end of the season and he will be happy to just receive a wage for that. The fact he is in our matchday squad right now suggests we maybe best hold onto him. I know it is down to Ewings being injured but if this back injury could flare up again at any point then we don't want to be left with no sub 'keeper. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

microdave Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 About a month or so ago, there was chat in here about dwindling crowds at the Rock so I've worked out the averages now that we've played everyone once at home. And for comparison I've also checked 11/12 in a lower division. League only. Season First 9 ave. Full season ave 11/12. 600. 724 (includes play offs) 12/13. 985. 927 13/14. 815. 938 14/15. 1091. 1072 15/16. 1103. 1041 16/17. 1041 So they've dropped slightly this season but they've held up well considering there were 500 more at the first Rangers game last season than were at the Dundee United this season. Bizarrely there were 1552 at the first game against Hibs last season and the exact same earlier this season! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd get rid if Brown, put an U17 on the bench whilst Jaz is out and then, if something should happen to Aldo, bring in an emergency loan 'keeper if needs be. That would be a much better use of our budget than having 3 experienced 'keepers on the books. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the talk was of the Home Support dwindling, crowds are probably roughly the same, as you've posted Microdave. But I think that's more to do with healthy Away supports outnumbering the Home Support. Look @ the Bonnyrigg Cup replay, a Junior side had easily twice as many fans than were in the Home end that night. The past few months there's been swathes of empty seats in the Home end tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which isn't too likely to happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be so sure - if he's got a new job lined up with the a Police the he might be willing to walk away. Perhaps it's wishful thinking on my part, but I doubt this current situation is suiting him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right that it was about the dwindling home support and does feel/look like there aren't as many. But I think that we've been outnumbered by quite a few teams in the past but unless the club release the away support, it's guesswork for quite a few games. Hibs and Dundee United definitely had more but eg Ayr looked like they had more fans but looks can deceive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hibs and Dundee United definitely had more but eg Ayr looked like they had more fans but looks can deceive. For sure. Ayr & the Pars certainly bring more than Livi & Alloa who went down though, so crowds will probably appear to be 'steady' even if there's less Sons fans turning up, sadly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cedrick1 Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 We seem to suggest we will get rid of mb and then suggest he might be willing to leave . as has happened all season the decision rest solely with one person .

Jan Vojáček Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Record reporting today that we've turned down Irish striker Matthew Rooney who is currently with Portadown. He doesn't have a Wikipedia page, so that's saved me a job at least. http://www.soccerbase.com/players/player.sd?player_id=67845 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portadown_F.C. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 http://www.west-dunbarton.gov.uk/council/public-consultations/dumbarton-waterfront-path/ The council have a Draft Planning guide up for this Waterfront pathway.

albundy Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Mark Brown is leaving football altogether & joining the Police. That's what I heard. Also heard that Nade has only been offered a pay as you play deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
