Stevie Farrell hopes getting his summer business done early has helped prepare the Sons for a successful season.
Farrell has a 21 strong squad signed ahead of Dumbarton’s first friendly with Northern League Hebburn Town this Saturday (July 1), and admits he’s only looking for one or two further additions before the start of league action in August.
Trialists are likely to feature in all three of the Sons’ pre-season friendlies, but unlike in Farrell’s first two seasons at the club he won’t face a race against time to assemble a squad.
