Stenny's highlights give a really good account of the game. 

Minter the way Bucky hit the deck after his booking mind you. Inwardly cringed watching that.

I was personally howling at that seeing it on the highlights. Could see it coming a mile off. Its one of those ye greet about if yer the opposition and will take all day if he's yer own. The greet is always going to be louder with extra whine when it's a player a particular fan base despises.

A brilliant professional foul followed by shithousery. He's done it a few times this season. We are a horrible gang and it's a pleasure having a captain that gets the job done by any means unnecessary.

In years gone by our nice, slow centre backs (no names required) wouldn't have either had the pace or brains to take the player out in that position and we would have went on to lose a goal. 

The dislike for him from the Dumbarton fans is as clear as lemonade and still seeping through which has raised a chuckle again.

Going back to that 4-2 dressing down Dumbarton gave us at Ochilview this season (our only league defeat where Bucky and Nicky played together btw) the lads on here and at the game were giving Bucky a fair bit and would never have foreseen how the season has panned out with him captaining the runaway leaders. 

It feels nice lads, it really does.

This is the @Neilly we all know & love.

You lads will need to strengthen somewhat though for League 1, Stirling Albion looked a far better side last season when they were champions, but have struggled quite a bit this year in League 1.

And we can worry about that next season.

The here and now is about celebrating what this group of players have given us this season - that's all that matters.

Fair point, enjoy the moment, they don't come along very often.

The thing is, I don't think there is a particular dislike for him 😂 no more than most other ex players. He had some absolute stinkers for us in the relegation season. Like, some of the worst performances I've ever seen where he looked like he'd never kicked a ball before.

Then he was named our captain last year, I thought he should have left after such a dreadful year prior. He had a fairly solid campaign 23/23 though. Wasn't without the occasional nightmare performance (but we had most of those as a team, collectively).

He does need to sort that hair out though. Manbuns have no place in this world.
