George Parr Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 24 minutes ago, Howlin' Wilf said: I remember posting last season about hearing Scott McDonald talking on the radio about the importance of pre-season. He said that it was almost impossible for a player to catch up if he missed pre-season for any reason. I suggested that this might be a reason for Beanie's form at the time. Everybody laughed and said Beanie was finished. I'm only just getting over the humiliation....... Fair point, albeit there's a question of whether he's finished at Championship level even with a solid pre-season. I suspect he's fairly content to have switched Tannadice and Cappielow for Links Park and Ochilview. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm impressed with his effort as much as anything. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by the confidence he showed on Saturday I'd be happy for him to stay at DFC. And I hope we don't have to see too much of his shot-saving skills in the meantime. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't really seen him make a save, but having an experienced goalkeeper who spent the game communicating with our back four made a big difference at the weekend. He looked a lot more confident than Mutch, Adam and McGowan too. His kicking should be very useful on windy days.

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 https://rocksportradio.podbean.com/e/talking-football-thursday-1st-november/ 1hr 4mins for the Aitken interview. Literally the first thing he mentions is the injuries, in response to a question about Dumbarton's Championship expectations over the last few years. Edited to add: he seems to be of the belief he was sacked because other clubs were sacking managers, namely Partick Thistle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's me thinking he got the sack because we've been shite and depressing for at least a year. Sober up Stevie. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does he express an interest in the Brechin job, and describe them as 'a great club'? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Vojáček Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Just now, Bring Back Paddy Flannery said: He does not. He does mention that he's had contact from a few chairmen mind you. Probably just to finalise the terms on loan deals for Ryan Porteous and James Penrice. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
