Dumbarton Season over?

- Jack Crawford

Our season probably ended this week. Saturday’s heartbreak in the cup followed by a thumping at St Mirren, and Inverness winning, too. You’ll often see teams lose their next game after winning a cup final – but nice things don’t happen to us. Saturday, though, was one of the most brilliant experience­s I’ve had, and ever will have, supporting The Sons. And it was the most heartbreak­ing at the same time. No words when ICT scored. Just silence.

That doesn’t excuse Tuesday’s performanc­e, which simply wasn’t good enough. The gap is now seven points, but with two games against Inverness to go it’s not quite over. As it stands, I wouldn’t fancy us to win the play-offs, and it’ll take a lot to happen for me to change my mind.
