PARS star Joe Chalmers has admitted that he doesn't want this season to end as he prepares to get his hands on the League One trophy.

But the 29-year-old, who tops League One's assist chart, is looking forward to his family sharing what promises to be a special day for the club with him after holidays prevented them from being there to witness the title-clinching clash.

Chalmers, who arrived at the club from Ayr United last January, and in February singed a new two-year contract extension, has been one of the team's consistent performers in their march to the championship.

The midfielder has played 42 games across all competitions this season, and is the league's top goals creator, with 12 assists.

It's a campaign that he has relished, especially as his wife, Brogan, and their three-year-old son, Nolan, have been regular attendees at games throughout the season.

However, when the title was won against Queen of the South, they were absent due to a pre-arranged break, and Chalmers is pleased they'll be able to join him for this afternoon's trophy lift and celebrations.

"The wife and the wee man, they go and follow me everywhere. The support from my mum and dad as well, it means a lot when you win and play well that you have people there watching," he said.

"“The only game they have missed was winning the league. They were away in Lanzarote so the wee man wasn’t happy at all. I’m hoping to make up for it this weekend. He is back and he is buzzing. It’s good to have them there every week.

"It makes it something special that he is there to watch me. He loves coming to the games, he knows every Dunfermline song that’s going. He is three but from the minute I get home he is always out the back playing football, it is relentless.

"They would never have booked this had they known. My mum and dad had booked to go away that weekend as well so they missed it as well! They will all be buzzing this Saturday to make up for it."

On the season itself, Chalmers continued: "I`ve enjoyed every minute of it, that`s what I`ve tried to do.

"Just playing every week and getting the confidence and the belief from the manager has helped me. Playing with good players, younger players that are driving each other on.

"I try and do my best to help them and help the team - I feel like I`ve managed to do it this season. I don`t want it to end!

"We`re on an unbeaten run and we`ve broke a lot of records but we`ve still got more records to target. We`ve got stuff up in the dressing room making us aware of what records we can still break.

"It`s been a brilliant season but if we can keep this going, we can turn it into a very special season with records and hopefully it can be a team that`ll go on to be remembered in years to come.

"We`ve still got loads to play for, pride as well. You don`t always get the chance to play in front of such big crowds. There`s plenty of motivation for me anyway.

"You watch teams that have won the league on the telly, you`ve seen games and if they don`t win then it definitely takes a bit of the edge off it. You want to get the fans up, get the fans involved in it and hopefully put on a good display. It would definitely make it a better day if we do our jobs on the pitch first."
