I thought we left shite grounds behind us when we got promoted from League Two and didn't need to go to Bonnyrigg this season. 10 hours ago, Watson Nimrod said: I would imagine one of the sheds would house the away fans? They normally would have before the stands went in. Small standing enclosure for away fans. The one side the pitch nearest the end. i think use to be able sit in the main stand could pay £2 to the steward standing next to it in the ground but now it’s all ticket to get in you have purchase to sit there in advance 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 There are Dumbarton fans shelling out £33 (THIRTY-THREE) each to go on the supporters bus to stand in the pishing rain watching this one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watson Nimrod Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 What rain?? You boys will need to bring your Factor 50. (Although I once checked the weather and didn’t realise it was Cove in Hampshire ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowhereman Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 Just been on to buy my ticket. I see it says that under 12 year olds must be accompanied. Really? That’s encouraging new supporters 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a parent I wouldnt dream of letting my kids go to a football match on their own at 11.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always seem to be quite a few unchaperoned kids at Palmerston, if they are accompanied by an adult then the adult must just go in with them and then leave them to do their own thing, kinda defeats the reason for this "rule" being in place. I actually agree that children under a certain age should need to be accompanied by an adult. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad used to lift me over the barrier at Boghead and I would only see him again in the 90 minutes if I wanted juice or a pie. You should embrace the fact you have a ground that kids can move around and explore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FifeSons Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 (edited) A decent point that. Injury time equaliser is always lovely. Hope Hartley is raging. Edited August 17 by FifeSons 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FifeSons Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Three very respectable draws to start the season. Feel like we could really do with a win next week, though, to really get things going. Suspect that could well hinge on whether McIntyre clings on another week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FifeSons Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 (edited) @lionel wicksonsays we deserved the point. I’ll be interested to see Jan’s match report. Great spirit shown to come back again, if nothing else. Must admit I was a bit worried after seeing us chuck on Lynas and Wallace to save the game. We battled back impressively at Inverness, too, and saw it out with 10 men. Only disappointment so far was not seeing it out against an Alloa side who will be up there come the end of the season. Good chance to get a win on the board with the next two being at home. Would really get us on our way to the kind of points per quarter target you need to stay up.

Back in the day me and my mates would all go unaccompanied. Probably about the ages of 10 and 11. That was in the early 80s. Different days now I suppose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
