Saw in the Dundee Evening Tele rumours are rife that Milan Palenik wants out of Dens. Ofcourse, Dundee have quashed these rumours, and insisted he is going knowhere. I, for one hope this is just pure fabrication, as losing Milan at this stage of the season would undoubtedly be a massive blow:

he's going, dont know where, but he will go

What makes you so sure he's leaving?

He's either unhappy here and Dundee don't want to admit it, or it's agents drumming up interest in him, mischief making. Either way, can't see him being at Dens much longer.

can't really see us agreeing to let him go now though, his contract is up at end of season and if he wants to sign precontract good luck to him he's been excellent so far for us

I suppose I would have to agree with that . There must be an element of truth in it, and with the recent acquisition of Craig McKeown on a pre-contract, this may possibly add fuel to the fire, although I think he was signed solely to provide competition at the back and also strengthen the squad.

Well you could pretty much see that coming, The guy is far to good for this division. I atleast hope he stays for the rest of the season as without him Gary McKenzie would be lost and Malone didnt look to good in the centre against St Johnstone.

Any chance of him leaving in this window?

He'll stay to seal promotion then the thought of European football might swing him.

Agree that he is far to good for this division. I havent seen him have a bad game for us yet. Would be sad to see him go but as long as we have him till the end of the season, I think he will be offski whether or not we win the league.

Come in Iron Chicken, Carseview calling.....

Click to view attachment Been there, done it, got the t-shirt.

Aye he looks like he is on the way - i'd suspect its because dundee have rather bizarrely refused to extend his contract past the summer - i can understand from his point of view why he would want to move if this is the attitude - why not just give him some dosh to play on - for example the money we have saved by getting rid of the scummer?

aparently hes been offered £700 a week from an un-named team

shit if he goes he is a class act ! 3 goals so far this season great for a centre back

Don't suppose he fancies SPL fitba next year?

Gretna?

An extra £100 a week more than the highest paid player at dens....not worth the bother

cant see it being Gretna they'll be div 1 next year...at least Dundee have a chance of going up.

Maybe Falkirk then...

They've not even got a centre half who can head the ball apparently.

I hope so, that means he will stay at Dens.

well hes an eastern european and with that money i'd guess hearts

I heard this afternoon that its not the extension as i thought but the fact that Milan's wife is now over and dundee have renaiged on finding accommodation for him and family

Dundee not keeping promises with people?

he better not go

Heard that milan wants to re-sign but his wife is having trouble settling

the whole story is a false

hope he signs would be a big blow if lost

Moneys tight down Dundee way i hear. Problems on the horizon ?

If that's true, then it's an absolute feckin joke that the club can't sort this out.

Aye right, nice try - another Accies fan with a squeeky bum!

Yea think we need to lay a shitty plastic pitch and let all and sundry play on it

2 bites in 12 mins, Don't panic boys

Cant believe they wouldn't sort out accomodation for Milan's wife. You would hope they would be trying everything to get him to stay.

It maybe more that she cant settle. But then how is she going to settle elsewhere in Scotland?

The last bastion of an idiot - puts up a comment - gets a reply that doesn't suit and immediately takes the "i'm a great fisherman - i've got you hooked on my line"

I agree - it was from a good source and if true - extremely shoddy IMO

The word in downtown Perth matches what Insight has said.

Seems like Dave MacKinnon isn't a popular man in Dundee at the moment!

Yeah I agree as well

Do you know the story behind this jim mclean pic?
Looks good

I never believe stories like this.

I mean, how difficult can it be for someone to have a look at the TSPC and find a house. Even if Dundee had to pay for it, for a grand a month you could get luxury. If it's been agreed to do that, why back out and lose a good player for nothing? It doesn't make any sense.

Yeah i'm sure there is too much money floating about Dens. I think they ought to provide free housing to ALL their players. Are you serious?

I am serious.

For a start, it was supposedly already agreed with the player and now they are reneging. My point is, why agree and then withdraw the agreement and lose a valuable player?

Further, he is presumably the only player in this position so to make the comment you made about providing free housing to all their players is facile, to say the least. I'm not sure why you saw fit to make that comment as it's totally irrelevant.

If this guy is rated as highly as he is at Dundee (and I've seen him play a few times) then to let him go for the sake of around £3k, after it's already been promised to him, does not make any business sense.

If you can't see that then you should refrain from posting until you grow up a bit.

It was tongue in cheek. How much money is he on? Won't be anywhere near a grand a week so to say that the club should shell out a grand a month for the guy to live locally is slightly higher than 3k over a 2/3 year deal.

Prudence ought to be exercised in Dundee's delicate situation.

Presumably they would pay for it until the end of the season, until he signs a new contract. He'll be getting his current rent paid, probably, if they have agreed to accommodate him. In order to upsize, to accommodate his family, it would probably only be a couple of hundred a month until the summer. The figures wouldn't likely be too prohibitive and, in any event, it was supposedly agreed with him already.

That said, I don't believe the story anyway.

Rumours on We Are Perth are that Palenik might be on his way to Saints.

Ah He's shit anyway.

He's off to St Johnstone, because they will give a shit about his family and helping him find accommodation

maybe he should join gr£tna? he could share a flat with the home fans!!

Loads of interest in the Derek Lyle story, but if I was a Dee, I'd be much more worried about the possible loss in this window of Palenik.

maybe, but he's off to St Johnstone.

Be extremly annoyed if Dundee let him go to St Johnstone. He is a cut above most defenders in this league and would definatly be a leadig player in the spl if we gained promotion.

We should be building the team around him and Kev.

source?

the same person who confirmed that Lyle is off to Hamilton.
