James Scott, who has been performing so brilliantly for Dumbarton this season, was secured from Liverpool for nix. The “Sons of the Rock” have such a high opinion of him that they would not part with him for £1,000. He is only 24 years of age, stands 5ft. 10 in., and turns the scale at 11 st. 12 lbs. He hailed originally from Stevenston United.
