Three in a row

Super Sons consolidated their position just one off the top of Irn Bru Scottish League Division Three at Station Park this evening. A brace of goals by Ross Clark (pictured) in the 55th and 73rd minutes gave Dumbarton victory over Forfar Athletic. That's the third 2-0 win in a row. It's important for two reasons. It stalls the Loons' own push into the play-off zone and it means Sons are now just three points behind leaders Cowdenbeath. We face the Blue Brazil (who have only won 3 in 9 since we drew against them on 21 February) away on 18 April and Forfar once more at SHS a week later. But first it's Berwick at home on Easter Monday. Can we make it four in a row? That really would up the stakes. A finish as Third Division champions in the season that marks the 25th anniversary of Dumbarton's promotion to the SPL will still be a tough call, but it isn't out of the question...
