Ludo*1 Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Obviously that applies to youth players which is great, but I'd have hoped that McGowan would have had his contract extended for a year regardless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he will, it's just that Christie had that clause in his contract they could simply trigger, whereas I'd assume they'd have to write one up for Gowser, and the current situation with furloughs probably makes it tough to do that. I'm certain he'll have his contract extended though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spikethedee Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Priority Number One after sorting out the short-term contracts for the players who are due to finish in June should be getting Robertson on a 3-5 year deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sickening the amount of players these scum have robbed off us over the years. At least with the other half of the arse cheek, you usually get a decent fee.

You can have Kamberi on loan providing his goals will keep Hearts down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 (edited) McPake just stopped short of saying, 'No DABs at Dens' in this morning's edition of The Courier. 'He was a name that was put to us (Danny Swanson) and a player obviously that Dave Mackay knows very well, but at the minute, he's not one we're pursuing. Any name put to us, we look into but it never got anywhere. I wish him well wherever he ends up but it won't be at Dens.' He's also absolutely savage about Tom Field. He's saying that the club knows how to treat people and that he doesn't expect anything less from Nelms & Keyes then goes onto say that if things were normal they'd all be handed new contracts. He then speaks about McGowan & Meekings and goes, 'Speaking about those two, absolutely delighted to keep them on'. With zero mention of Field, the only other out of contract senior player.

I think he means how McPake doesn't say a word about Field, whilst talking up the other players out of contract. Tbf, it's pretty clear he isn't going to be here much longer, whereas Gowser and Meeks likely will be. Glad we can clear away any talk of Swanson. With a possible set date on training starting (June 10th), pre-season beginning (early August) and a possible start for league play (mid September), hopefully we'll soon be able to get regular transfer news. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin.Hood Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Dundee under 17s contracts to be dished out in October. Majority of the team to be let go and at least 6 to be promoted. No professional contracts handed out 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im guessing this will be down to cost cutting. The one i know was on loan at ( kirrie i think) so he got decent experience their and was one of the younger lads so hopefully he gets kept on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's a bit of an odd thing to read into it. Field came in at the last minute because we didn't have any fit fullbacks. McPake played McDaid at WB because Field had literally just arrived at the club having played no football, probably unfit, not having trained. McDaid was surprisingly effective and we went on a bit of a run, so it's understandable why Field never got a game. I don't see how the lack of praise for a player who never got a chance to actually play equates to a slating. If the guy clearly wasn't up to it, I think that says more about the people who went ahead and brought him to the club anyway than it does about the player himself, but I think that's unlikely because everything I read about him was largely positive and effusive.
