• Debut - Morton 0 - 0 Dumbarton

  TO paraphrase Vince Lombardi, Dumbarton didn't draw this game. They just ran out of time. The later in the day, the more Sons chipped away at 10-man Morton. But all they were left with were thoughts of what might have happened on another day. Maybe with more breaks upfront, Garry Fleming and Kevin Cawley wouldn't have been denied at close range by unthinkable saves from home keeper Derek Gaston. And in injury time, Fleming's header would have burst the net instead of agonisingly hitting the post and bouncing clear. Unfortunately Sons aren't getting those breaks right now. After the amazing start to the league season, the unforgiving reality of the Ladbrokes SPFL Championship is beginning to sink in. But time will tell how big a point this could be later in the season. This was the second instalment of a double header against teams Dumbarton are tipped to compete with, and at least they have avoided back to back defeats. They had a man advantage for the final 25 minutes when the home side's Conor Pepper collected a second booking. However, even that did not swing the luck Sons' way in front of goal. All they can do is keep plugging away, hoping that fortune will favour them by way of goals.

• First Goal - Dumbarton 2 - 1 Livingston

  SEE, that's exactly what Stevie Aitken was talking about before the match. Fine lines. Four minutes from half time in this game, Kevin Cawley had lined himself up to be Dumbarton's match winner by scoring the opener. By the interval he'd gone off injured and watched Gary Glen head Livingston level. But while one goalscorer had to depart, the decisive goal came from the man who replaced him. Nine minutes from full time, Eamonn Brophy scrambled home the winner, giving Sons their first win since August at St Mirren. Three minutes before the winner, Sons could just as easily have been behind. The fact that they weren't was down to keeper Mark Brown, who denied the visitors' Morgyn Neill with a top class save. And 180 seconds later came the moment that clinched it. As if that drama wasn't enough, Livingston sub Myles Hippolyte was sent off midway through the second half after clashing with Frazer Wright. Yet in many ways, this match was similar in many ways to Dumbarton's defeat at Raith Rovers last week. Brophy's goal was one of very few clear chances at either end in the second half. While there was plenty effort from both teams, Sons' creative side had still not quite been in full evidence, even with the man advantage. They have, though, ended the first quarter of the league season on 10 points as a result of this victory. There has been frustration and bad luck along the way, but their position is a strong one. And Brophy was the man who benefited from a break in front of goal which has deserted Sons in recent weeks.
