He's practically carried this team to the points we do have on the board, but he's been utter shite for a good 5-6 games. You mean Adam has been deteriorating under McPake. What player hasn’t?

Can't remember feeling as low as this even under McIntyre or when I felt we'd shafted Barry Smith or Jocky. Just a complete feeling of hopelessness. And the worst thing is, I probably will just rant until I go to bed. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The longer he is in charge, the less fans will pay good money to watch this shit. I can’t my head around this either. We can all see he’s making a complete arse of this manager malarkey, why isn’t Nelms. Maybe he’s a really good coach behind the scenes but I highly doubt it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm convinced they have a multi-year plan which involves McPake learning on the job and getting us back to the top tier. Surely possibly not even making the play-offs in his 2nd season is not in their plans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutting him some slack here - he's just back from covid. Absolute nonsense Dele my man, with all due respect have a word with yourself regarding a player who if anything continues to sacrifice his own personal performance level. Continually trying too hard to carry the shite all around him, imho. 1 hour ago, Ludo*1 said: He's been shite since Arbroath away. He deserves to be cut slack.

Deciding to do that is just beyond stupid. Yet our manager James McPake left Charlie Adam on the park for the full 93 minutes, whilst he was sitting on a yellow card. How Charlie must be regretting the timing of his footballing return under such management, whilst everyone seems to be forgetting his personal reasons for returning to the Dundee area! Respect to the man, imho. Do you really think James McPake is worried about our next game, even he surely does not expect to see the end of the week still in his current employment. Merely my realistic opinion. Edited March 16, 2021 by This Charming Man 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just nonsense though. We were hoofing it just as much as they were. In fact, they had the better passages of play of 'pretty' football whereas we had Adam collecting it from CH and hoofing it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He put that statement out after listening to Hopkins interview on Ayr’s TV , Hopkin stated large areas of the pitch were very poor with lots of sand and the only way to get up the park was to keep the ball away from those areas by playing the ball in the air to avoid it , good tactic as it certainly worked Edited March 17, 2021 by Robbo63 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin_Nevis Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Am I right in thinking that in a neat 2 year stint, this clown has us with a negative goal difference in league games, despite potentially having the second biggest budget in the second tier in each of those years? That alone is fucking embarrassing. Why the f**k is Nelms persisting with a man who will undoubtedly never work as a Manager in league football ever again? Why is Keyes tolerating failure after failure in managerial appointments from Nelms? An utter fucking shitshow from top to bottom. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have you know that over his 46 games in the Championship, McPake's GD is a perfect zero: 66 GF, 66 GA. As for winning percentage at this level, his is at 39.19%, by far the lowest of any Dundee manager in the 2nd tier who has managed at least one full season (Jocky Scott second bottom with 46.88%). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
