Occasionally I used to meet a fan who travelled down with his two young boys from Aberdeen. I recall meeting him at places like Alloa and Forfar. Haven't seen him in a while. I wonder if he still comes to these "home" games.

Could do with a TOTAL APPEARANCES column in the Palmerston Personal section folks ????

Also a fair amount of the fans who travel up from Dumfries to away fixtures are obviously part of the home crowds. Our away attendance is obviously topped up by people like me who make it to more away than home fixtures but I'd guess that most are stalwarts from Dumfries. Be interested to see figures though. Maybe someone should do a poll at an away fixture or two!

I'm sure that is already in that section of the programme.
