Doonhamer doon south Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 If called off, queens will have a fair backlog of fixtures to complete before end of the season. What's Dumbarton fixture schedule like, as bad or worse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cameron2000 Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Got 12 league games to play plus a cup game as well as that 2 or 4 play off games are very likely. Horrendous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rjc-1988 Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Still chucking it here and not light drizzle!! i know I’m a pesimmist bit can’t see it being on [/quoteNobody wants postponements but what invariably happens is the home club takes a gamble and hopes that the Ref gives it the thumbs up at the last minute. Home supporters aren't bothered because they want to give the match every chance and if it is called off late they make the short trip home. Nobody really cares about the small band of away supporters.This is not a criticism of Dumbarton - it is what every home club does time and time again .

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Been out and about this morning and it's absolutely hooring it down. Either the pitch is in great nick or we're leaving it very late to call an inspection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O'Kelly Isley III Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 In case anyone is wondering (and they will be), the club has no Challenge Cup Final tickets to sell as with two weeks to go the League has not yet released them. Why - well who knows ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Vojáček Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Having just spent about 120 minutes of my life being soaked on a football pitch in Duntocher I would just like to confirm that it is very wet. The pitch was just about playable though, and WDC aren't exactly known for having bowling green surfaces, so I'd like to think we'll be alright. I'd be absolutely gutted if it was off now.

19QOS19 Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 It's very windy too. Long ball tactics will surely be deployed by ourselves in that case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On-the-deck triangular passing movements from us, enabling our potent diamond formation, to thrust towards the QoS goalmouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh.Scored a couple up at Peterhead in the cup but other than that I've been unimpressed. In his defence I'm not convinced he's fully fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the guy, but he's just not been 100% match sharp. He's just been half a second slow to react or make a decision - understandable after such a long time out to be fair. Hopefully he'll be back to sharpness in time for the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its very difficult for players to drop out of competitive football for the guts of a year after they hit 30 and ever get match sharpness back. We saw it with McFadden too. The touch was there, the vision was there but the legs weren't, no matter how hard he trained. He was physically fit, he just wasn't sharp. It will be equally diffiicult for Beanie.

It will be equally diffiicult for Beanie. I agree. As good as it was to see him return I always had doubts over whether he could get himself up to speed in order to be a competitive player at this level. I think a League 1 or 2 club would've been a better fit for him but we may see the best of him in the weeks to come. With our honking schedule I imagine most players will get game time.
