All things Dundee FC

Not been on here much lately but last night really shows up the level we’re at. I really don’t think Bowyer knows his best starting 11 or if he believes there is a best starting 11 in the squad, he’s chopped and changed all season and never found any consistency! Jury is definitely out on him, his January signings are no better than we had and in this league Byrne and McMullen start for me, also hate seeing wingers not playing on their natural sides, keep it simple ffs! Bottom line is, this league is exciting but the standard is poor, we’re not much better than any other team in it and whoever goes up will struggle big time! End of season re-builds are never a success and your season could be over long before it begins, but as per DFC seem to be a shambles behind the scenes with 3 signed players, that doesn’t help the team and I’m sure some of them will already have deals lined up for themselves and not too worried if we win the league or not Nelms is a problem but without his mates money we’re screwed! But hey, this is DFC, we don’t do conventional -

We have a distinctly average squad and team, Morton worked hard against us tonight and that was enough to win the game. Not sure Bowyer knows his best starting 11 or too much about the opposition but he seems to have inherited the past few managers tombola -
Confidence is massive in football and we seem to be hitting form at the right time. A couple of decent additions in January and despite the dodgy beginning we might just do this

Dundee vs Falkirk - League Cup 2nd round
ravabelli replied to RossBFaeDundee's topic in Domestic Cup Football
Robinson ahead of Rudden for me, holds the ball up miles better, superior first touch and all round better player. Ashcroft made a difference, Cameron and Williamson played well too and French looked better at right back than centre. Falkirk looked decent, especially their front three. Wasn’t much in it first half but thought overall we deserved the win -

Not sold on French tbh. Robinson looks decent enough but Williamson is no better than anything we’ve already got. Grayson did look decent in his first game but getting the impression he could turn out to be one of those players that flatter to deceive. A couple of big physical players needed, we looked quite weak tonight against Ayr -

Who does our scouting? Looking at what other teams in the league seem to find compared to our signings, whoever it is needs binned too -

Back 4 need binned! Midfield shown up as weak and one paced. Hopefully Bowyer learns this league quickly or we’re struggling -

Poor in defence and lack of creativity from open play was a worry. Midfield was awful and looked off the pace and inexperienced. Showed spirit but it was basic stuff from set pieces and poor decisions made life a lot harder than it needed to be. Goalkeeper position needs resolved, full backs needed too and have been for a while. New signing looked like he could be a handful and Rudden would be as well cutting off his left foot! Apart from that, Thistle deserved the win, better team for the first hour and looked pretty well organised and comfortable -
Typical Scotland, media spout pish about quality and strength of depth in the squad! They’re second rate, there’s no top class quality there, without fight they’re pish

New manager needs named now to get working on signings otherwise it’ll be catch up and last minute unwanted dross and shite again -

It’s winston Ingram, left back, very one footed apparently -

Probably been posted on here before but what exactly is the relationship between John Nelms and the owner Tim Keyes? It astounds me that Nelms pretty much is the board and makes all the big decisions with little or no football experience, and in any other walk of life he’d have had his jotters long ago as he makes poor decision after poor decision with no repercussions -

Doubt there’ll be any change, Nelms has rarely made a good decision in his time running the club, he’s turning into a hindrance and actually stifling progress with constant poor appointments. Club needs an experienced manager to build a team, been too many marquee signings of names and connections who lack legs and athleticism for this level and an out of depth manager trying to shoehorn them into the starting 11. We have a pretty weak squad, probably championship level, with zero game plan or plan b when the inevitable happens. Not looking good
