Sons' sorrow

Looks like it could be true, https://twitter.com/HubSF/status/475982446559633408 the link takes you to the edit page for the OS. Great news if it happens!

A wee while ago that account put up this Tweet - https://twitter.com/HubSF/status/467720607224696834 - then a day later it went on the website - http://www.dumbartonfootballclub.com/news/?mode=view&id=1363 - Whilst this has obviously been a wee bit longer it could be due to registration or even waiting until season ticket sales slow down a bit before announcing an important and big signing. Will no doubt spend the rest of today refreshing the website every few seconds hoping for news!

E.T.A Someone from the OS has noticed this now and it takes you to the 'can't be found' page. Very odd.

That's some top detective work there, So08. Rumours have it that it's landing you in trouble with the power bearers at DFC OS HQ though. I'd pack your things and head for the hills!

So, what are we to make of it all ? If Megginson signs is this a clear indication that Ian Murray will be staying, on the basis that Mitch (and perhaps others) may well want that to be the confirmed situation before committing to a new contract ? With the OS stuck on freeze-frame it's hard to know WTF is going on

Hopefully the first training session this Saturday will include Megginson, McGinn and a clutch of prospective signings for the new season, together with news that Jimmy Calderwood has taken up the reins at Easter Road.

This continued speculation is nae use to us.

It could indicate that. It's more likely the case that Hibs haven't made an approach for Murray so we're working as normal in trying to get our squad together. I don't think we can expect the club to say anything on the speculation, they've just given Murray a bumper new contract and will be expecting business as normal until something changes that. I also don't think we can expect Murray to come out and blindly say he's going nowhere, he's said he's happy here and isn't in a rush to move, I'm happy with that.

Yup but as I mentioned in the post if Season ticket sales are roaring then there is no need to announce his signing, when things begin to slow down an important and exciting signing may convince a few to renew. Anyway no more news yet and it looks like MI6 (Dumbarton branch) might be on my case!

Any players from last year not offered contracts? And any bids for turner?

There was a few players freed at end of the season. Nicky Phinn, Owen Ronald and Scott Smith. None of them really featured though last season. Regards Turner, he was still under contract and no bids have been made that i am aware of.
