    Firsty they own part of that land. Secondly if they were that rich, they wouldnt still be scrambling around for more financing 5  years down the road

    Rich people are rich because they don’t use their all their own money when carrying out projects like this as that carries a lot of risks. As some else pointed out there are often other benefits to partnering up with others. Look at the mess splashing money has got clubs in. Making sensible financial/business decisions is probably one of the things the current owners are good at but football or soccer I’m not too sure.

    It wasn't necessarily how long McDaid held on to the ball, it was the weight of his pass. He completely shirked any responsibility before holding his arms outstretched when the move collapsed (entirely due to him). Can see him being hounded, tbh. 

    there is a few things lacking in his play , like you said his ability to play a decent pass/cross is a problem , but I do think in that situation he should have ran at the defender committing him , bearing in mind it was 2 v 1 we would/should have scored

    but again could have been 3 v 1 and if his passing isn't unto scratch takes away any advantage

    If we were still in the premiership I dont think he could cut it week on week. So in that respect I wouldn't keep him.  His experience at Championship level though is still there. Man of the match for me yesterday.

    I can understand this view , his style of play costed us in the middle of the pitch last season as he does hold on to the ball longer than needed at time , although hopefully with the quality of footballer being 'slightly' lower this may work in his favour

    Yes, Gowser was class yesterday. My MOTM also. My only gripe with him is that I feel he slows the play down too much when we’re attacking with his turning and twisting. Others may view this differently but I feel he could pick a pass quicker than he does.

    yeah like I said above he does like to hold on to the ball until the very last moment and this is sometimes a positive , like yesterday I think it was Robertson won the ball played it to Mcdaid , if Mcdaid held on to the ball longer  therefore committing the defender the path on goal would have been clear for nelson instead he rushed a pass over and we lost a very good chance to get a second. if McGowan was in that situation his willingness to hold the ball until the right pass presented itself would have paid dividends.

    I'd have given MotM to either Robertson or McGowan. Robertson due to his age and being a class act, but all things equal, I thought McGowan was on a different level to the rest of the players today.

    to think their was folk on here and other Dundee pages that wanted rid of McGowan for the coming season , has easily been one, if not the best player since McPake got the job

    I'd walk over broken glass to get Kane Hemmings back in a Dundee shirt. I'd imagine he'd be significantly cheaper than May, too. 

    I highly doubt it would happen though. 

    ness pinging it over the top for hemmings to run on to , would love to see it but as you say probably unlikely to happen

    Not even came round to it, just accepted we are not going to sign another goalkeeper.
    Have we came out to say our business is done or we are looking to add more players ?

    now you mention it I can recall several occasions that he actually just invites pressure on to himself 😂 I still stand by he will be less exposed but as you say that doesn't mean f*ckall when jack Hamilton is involved

    Cause it's full of Arty farty, Love Island, ManBag wearing pussies.

    Alot of shite.

    Thank you.

    I had you down as a man bag fan too 

    you are correct there are folk that match the above characteristics , but the same can be said of the likes of twitter and facebook I would hardly class them as a more "manly" form of social media 😂😂

    Rudden would be ideal, comes with an injury. Injuries and history go hand in hand with us it seems.
    Where has the hemmings rumour came from ?

    I believe there is a twitter page team dee that posted a "breaking news" story that hemmings was close to returning on loan , Rudden managed to get goals in a very poor falkirk team so there's no doubt he would manage to at least better what he done for them .

    fair play to united since what I assume is there new media team took over there interaction with the fans has been excellent. after the torture both Dundee and united fans have been through its excellent seeing the clubs trying to connect with the fans again  and give something back 

  10. it's interesting reading everyones opinions in regard to the squad.

    as the recruitment policy has been solid this summer it does fill me with some optimism although it wouldn't be the Dundee we all love if it didn't do things the hard way.

    Im of the opinion that I would probably rather spend good money on a proven striker than waste whatever remaining budget on a goal keeper and extra cover in the midfield.

    my thinking on the goalkeeper situation is that I do have faith in our new look defence ( I can't remember the last time I said that) and that Hamilton may not be as exposed as he undoubtedly was last season 

    what is the latest on the hemmings , Rudden and may situation ?

    Any chance of the cunto in charge of the music at Dens playing some old classics.

    Great Escape, Tom Hark, Always look on the brightside (after we horse the Dabs).

    Listening to Jus tin Beiber or Rihanna is not cutting it and it's not fit for a football environment. Maybe it is in the English top league where its all became a joke, but whilst walking up the hulltoon to Dens to the faint whispers of Ed Sheeran it makes me want to salmon leap head first right back doon the hull - that's before watching Hamilton in goal.

    Thank you.

    some oasis , stone roses etc wouldn't go a miss either , its like they play one of the NOW albums before the games
