Dumbarton’s James Hilton says he’s been working the hardest he’s ever had to in football to earn his place back in the Sons team.
The attacker - signed from Stranraer over the summer - impressed in pre-season, but then found himself out the side as Stevie Farrell found a winning formula with Ryan Wallace in Hilton’s favoured number 10 role.
However Wallace being hit with illness meant Hilton was handed a first start in three months in Saturday’s 4-2 victory against Forfar Athletic.
And it was an opportunity that the Clydebank-based attacker grabbed with both hands, scoring the opener and creating the other three goals.
