Yeah, spot on young guy is indeed Derek McWilliams. Guy next to Geddes is Iain MacDonald.
Colin Harris next to John Brown and not Vince Mennie at the rear, I'm sure that's Walker McCall. Not Keith Wright either though, I think that's Lex Richardson.
Some great characters!!! 
Best regards
 


Agree re McWilliams. Iain MacDonald also seems likely. Bomber Harris - as slowcas a week in the gaol but had a decent touch about him. Who was the other tall striker we had about that - Graham Hendry? Not sure about Walker McCall - looks too young. Sexy Lexy - you might be right about him too.

I wonder if we can make a team out of players that played for us say less than 5 times in the Hartley/McCann spells.

I’m hoping McPake and Nelms are just being disciplined and waiting on the right players to sign.  
When you think back to Hartley, McCann and McIntyre they signed so many players that were completely average at best.  They’d often bring in players that were no better than the players they were replacing, resulting in a bloated squad with the board desperate to pay off the players out of favour. 
If Nelms had been more ruthless and refused some of the signings Hartley and McCann in particular made we may have been able to push the boat out for Shanklands when we were interested in him.


Still got to remember it's very early days for mcpake but give it to say december and we can see if his signings are above average.
Hopefully they all stay fit however .
First half against Dunfermline was a wee wake up call hopefully.
I'm excited for Saturday

I'd assume you'd already have this system, as even Saints have the "e-Ticket" option these days.

We are a wee bit dated in that regard. The biggest moan and excuse for some fans not going to games on the Dundee only forums is that you need to go to the club shop to get a ticket to get into the Derry and queuing is off putting. And it's all very tedious.

To be honest, I still don't trust electronic systems after my ticket wouldn't work against Celtic back in 2010 which led to me arguing with Dee fans that I was holding up, needing to get a steward escort me through the disabled entrance and most galling, missing Colin McMenamin's opener for us.

I think that advert was probably around 1984/85 season, not long after Archie took over.

Re tall striker, too early for Graham Harvey, I recall we swapped Colin Harris for him, maybe thinking about a young Colin Hendry, he initially played up front around that time.

Reckon feller at the rear on the right is Walker McCall, however there was a lot of big, big hair going on in the 80's!!!!
