Up Next - Brechin City
Not Dunn Yet
By Sonny Rock
April 11 2002
Sons need to take all three points from Glebe Park to keep ahead of Rovers and Peterhead. City have had a slight form slump since they won the title this is probably due to trying out different players for next season. Sons need to perform a lot better than they did on Saturday against East Fife.

need to take all three points from Glebe Park to keep ahead of Albion
Rovers and Peterhead. City have had a slight form slump since
they won the title and this is probably due to trying out different
players for next season. Sons will be hoping to join them in
Division 2 and will need to perform a lot better than they did on
Saturday against East Fife.
Roddy Grant is still suspended after
his spitting incident.

Matches |
| Apart from this
season Sons have had not a bad time against Brechin with.
Sons got revenge for losing twice
earlier this season. Andy Brown and Mark Crilly netted after
the break after Fotheringham had given City a first half
lead. Dumbarton 2 Brechin City 1.
The last meeting at Gelebe Park saw Brechin edge out
Sons with a late late goal. Andy Brown and Paddy Flannery had netted for
Sons in the first half as had Grant and Fotheringham for City
before Clark's 94th minute effort kept the points in Angus.
Sons started their campaign
against City when Brechin appeared
fortunate to take all three points from The Rock courtesy of a 2-1
win. A Paddy Flannery header opened Sons account for the
season on the 14th minute before goals from Bain and King gave
Brechin a flying start to the season which they duly capitalised
on.

The Opposition - Brechin City |
| City's
season is all but over as they've wrapped up promotion and the
title. While a City player has warned supporters that they
will be playing youngsters until the end of the season Dick
Campbell has assured journalists that he will be fielding a full
strength team against Dumbarton - cheers. |
