Continuity will help Dumbarton as they start their First division adventure

Dumbarton will head into the new season in the First Division boosted by the news that home grown youngster Martin McNiff has signed a new deal to stay at the Rock for the next two seasons. McNiff joined the club five years ago and has established himself at the centre of his side’s defence where his partnership with Alan Lithgow stood strong as Alan Adamson’s side knocked out both Arbroath and Airdrie in the play-offs to make it into the First Division.
 
Adamson said: "Martin grew in stature last season and I am delighted that he has opted to remain with us. I am sure that he will continue to grow in the First Division."
