Lichties’ Linn dreams of big top-flight return

AFTER celebrating his testimonial year and penning a new deal, Bobby Linn could find himself as a top-flight footballer next term at the age of 36.

The last time that happened was 20 years ago when he was just a teenager with Dundee, playing alongside the likes of Julian Speroni, Brent Sancho and Nacho Novo.

Linn, who completed the full 90 minutes in the 3-0 win over Morton, is more than up for the challenge.

“As footballers you want to be at the highest level as possible,” he said.

“I’ve been in League Two with this team. Where we are is just incredible.

“As a club, the whole fanbase, the community – everyone involved in the club at the moment is going in the right direction.

“On the pitch, you want to try and get there and we still have another opportunity.

“We’ve got to knuckle down and stick to the basics.”

“You see the way we’re playing this year. There is a belief in the squad. There is no reason why we can’t.

“We’re there on merit. We have to continue that form.”
