Greenie for using the word "stupendous" in a Dumbarton Football Club thread. Not heard that word since the 90s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d be inclined to split survival out to off-park then on-park. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But beyond that, the training gear just looks really slick and professional. I've got the light green quarter-zip from two seasons ago and a lightweight jacket from last year. They feel better quality than the Joma stuff and look a lot less like boys' club teamwear. I'm quite liking the look of this season's black quarter zip too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 The Macron stuff is far superior for me. I'm also a skinny wee runt so my usual size fits me fine (if anything, better). Not purchased this year's top but I look forward to Santa bringing me it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PWL Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Aside from Strathclyde Homes, I don't think any of them have ever stuck in the mind. However, if it brings in funds or (as I suspect in this case ) reduces outgoings, then I'm all for it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with that completely, if a company is willing to pay us money or then give us something in return then they can call it whatever they want as far as I'm concerned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, and we'll continue to call it The Rock. It's a bit like 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, the more I watch the so-called elite level of football the more glad I am that I watch and support Dumbarton. OK, the individual and collective skills, fitness and organisation may be much lower but the overall experience remains very true to the origins of the game. There is a passion and honesty and randomness that has simply vanished from higher up the chain, and we are also largely free from the incessant demands of commerce and broadcasters to trick up the 'experience' for the domestic and global 'customer'. Last night's latest VAR farrago was another reminder of when it's not broken then don't fix it. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
