D'umbarton? You've gone too far. 

Never!

The name invokes a certain air, an aura if you like, of a town thats quite literally on the map.

Sure, it may not have the superstar showbiz fans of Stenhousemuir or the nepotism of Cove. And, yes, it is forced to look across the water, daily, at its higher class neighbours in Greenock but theres a certain je ne sais quoi about the place.

Perfectly captured by the new name

I thought Dowie was gubbins for us. I didn’t like him as a player or as a captain, which was summed up by him bailing on us halfway through our first season back in League 1. Quite miraculously he actually won our player of the year award in the relegation season. 

Andy Dowie was, after a ropy first 2 or 3 months, an outstanding centre back for us. Certainly in our best half dozen of them this century. But he was done when he left us. You were a club too far.

The view across to the Green Oak is great; all those blue lights flashing, it's like Xmas every day.

Last time I was at Palmerston was Tony Wallace's professional debut. He played at right back and we lost 5 nil in a league cup game. Also a steward told me off for "sitting too close to the red and white tape" that had been looped round some seats.
