Dumbarton’s home campaign in the 2024/25 League One season comes to an end tomorrow afternoon as Annan Athletic visit the Marbill Coaches Stadium [kick-off 3:00pm].
Sons will be looking to end on a high when the Galabankies come calling and carry on what has been a decent run of form in recent weeks with just one defeat in six games.
For the visitors, it remains all to play for in the battle to avoid the relegation play-offs – they trail Inverness Caledonian Thistle by just one point heading into the final two games and will be hoping they slip up against champions Arbroath whilst they earn something at the Rock.
Boss Stevie Farrell isn’t keen for that to happen following on from last weeks 2-2 draw at Montrose and is looking for another committed performance.
Speaking last week, he said: “It’s a tough place to go and Montrose are still fighting for points but we’ve showed again that we have good players and a good dressing room.
“We knew were going to come under pressure when we lost Mark Durnan and they went direct. We generally handed it really well, but when they keep on piling it on then they’re bound to get on the end of one.
“There’s one thing that can never be aimed at this group, and I’ve been involved in teams that have had tough seasons and you maybe can see tools get downed at one stage, but these guys have never done that once. They are an absolute credit and a joy to work with.
“The performances in League One on the whole have been excellent.
“We’re hopeful of ending our home season on a high tomorrow afternoon but there are a number of factors that make that difficult. Annan are desperate for points to try and avoid the play-offs but we will be looking to make things difficult for them.”
