Squad lists/confirmed signings


Recommended Posts

That's the heart of Dundee's midfield from last season ripped out so it will be interesting to see how the new guys shape up.

2 good players gone, granted but I would argue O'Donnell was the heart of the midfield last season. The fact we've kept him and Riley along with the whole defense is a retention of way more players than I expected.

I'm still a bit worried about Milne and Bayne up front, would prefer to see extended runs for McIntosh and Hyde.

Benedictus isn't good enough for this level in the brief spells I've seen him. I don't think Dundee's squad is any great shakes but they won't be at the bottom either. Maybe similar to one of the more forlorn squads Rae put out towards the end of his gin-sodden tenure.

I think the fact that despite them having about 12 players, and they still papped him out on loan to Montrose tells its own story!

Your official site must be quicker than the press unlike ours!

That explains why Smith said there's one more signing to come.

It's tradition that our official site parades a new player minutes after signing.

I can see Irvine filling in as a holding midfielder when necessary, if Dundee can just about get away with Benedictus at right-back.

I agree. Although young Connor Rennie is probably a better right back than Benedictus, certainly it's his natural position.

Irvine will be our first choice right back, but like you say, he'll be used in midfield too.

Our squad is small but we have a lot of versatility - that'll be key.

Since it's widely known that the seven boys out of the 19's squad last year have agreed new deals I've just reorganised the list and included them in the first team pool now (because that is what they are, though McShane and McGowan are still young enough to play for the 19's I think). We're getting there.

Of the out of contract senior players from last year not yet fixed up with other clubs: Hyslop and Holmes are training with Airdrie Utd. Harris, McGuffie and Weatherston are training with us, though in Harris' case at least that's a courtesy and he's hoping to get an SPL side or a club in England.

EDITED to update for David Hutton signing for Accies.

Morton had 17 players who were signed and at the club for the entire season;

Plus these which had different situations:

  • loans in (Fitzharris & Evans)
  • loans out (Shepherd & Kane)
  • trialists (Cregg & Malone)
  • November signing (Young)
  • released in December (Greacen)
  • Jonathan Toto

Strangely Jonathan Toto is now on five goals in nine games for his new club... :o

Campbell is an ex Rangers youth. He was on loan to Cowdenbeath for the second half of last season and scored 5 in 13 starts although I think some of those were penalties.
