Fleming banned for Falkirk game

Garry Fleming is missing from Dumbarton's squad for the clash with Falkirk.


Fleming is absent through suspension, but Hugh Murray is available after recovering from a hamstring injury.


An ankle knock keeps Chris Turner sidelined and Bryan Prunty will be missing with a leg problem as Ian Murray's side look to make it seven games in a row without defeat.


Murray said: "This is a big game for both sides as Falkirk will be looking to win and keep pace with Dundee whereas we want the win to help our chase for a top-four place.


"We have a good record against Falkirk in my time at Dumbarton and I want that to continue."


Falkirk midfielder Mark Millar is included after overcoming a foot injury that he suffered against Queen of the South last weekend.


Luke Leahy is also available after a knock, but midfielder Thomas Grant misses out as he continues to battle his way back to full fitness following illness.


Technical director Alex Smith said: "Dumbarton are a side that have given us problems in the past as they have tremendous pace in their team with good attackers as well.


"It will be a difficult game but after losing last weekend we are determined to bounce back and get the win."
