Sad Passing Of Dumbarton FC CEO

IT is with very deep sadness that we announce that the Dumbarton FC Chief Executive, Gilbert Lawrie, has died.

The news has come as a terrible shock, and all connected with Dumbarton FC — staff, directors, players, the trust and fellow supporters — send their deepest sympathies and condolences to Gilbert’s family and to his many friends at this extremely difficult time. Former Rangers player Dave McKinnon mentioned the sad loss at the start of TALKING FOOTBALL on ROCKSPORT on Thursday night as he co-hosted the show with Bill Young who also presented his own tribute to the popular figure at the Scottish Championship club.

Gilbert will be hugely missed by everyone connected to the club, among the football community in Scotland, and by the large number of people who knew and valued him in his neighbourhood and well beyond.
