Dons boss Craig Brown said: "Both Scott and Andy are integral to my plans here at the Club and I'm naturally very pleased they have pledged their futures here.

"I have already gone on record that I believe Scott can reach the twenty goal tally this season while Andy is the most improved player in our squad this season and one of the first names on the team-sheet each week."
