So far we’ve been hearing every game sir Charlie has been playing with an injury or a knock somewhere if there is no game for a while after this, great,  rest him up now 

as for Gk I’d keep Hamilton in so far he is coming on leeps and bounds so if we can keep a clean sheet it’ll be another wee confidence boost in his back pocket

Jamaican Hamilton can gtf for all I care if he’s not played in the 10 games before he won’t play in the 10’games later most pointless signing since bonnets-Johnson 

He was clearly part of a business decision rather than a footballing one. It'd be an added bonus if he turned out to be half decent.

We are paying him next to nothing apparently (just giving him digs) and York are taking care of the wages.

I've no qualms with that deal at all tbh. Just hoped he'd have a bit of talent!

What was the business decision?

The head of York is a big Dundee fan. They had trouble getting him into the country and it looked like their league was going to be cancelled for the year (Unsure if that ended up happening) so they needed a club where he could hopefully play or at the very least use facilities and train rather than just waiting to see what happened.

We obviously accepted that without having the first clue to what he was like as a player thus strengthening a relationship with a Canadian club.

Didn’t know all that

What is the benefit of a strengthened relationship with York9 a team only founded 2 year ago with only 2 players sent out on loan Hamilton being one of them, you’d think if it was for facilities there would be many closer to home than Scotland

As I said, their owner is a big Dee. Even in his LinkedIn page there's a Dundee badge in his profile picture.

Our owners in turn have pretty much been trying to make us into a 'brand' over that end of the world with the training camps and sending McPake over every year and stuff. All just part of that IMO.

I think it's either one of Kerr or McDaid that tested positive, and since they share accommodation they'll both have to self-isolate.

McDaid is always liking Covid denial stuff on Twitter. This not the second time that he's had to self isolate?

He had a scare after someone in his family tested positive and the two had to self-isolate, but don't think he's had it yet... until now maybe.

Could be McGhee who's also missing.

He was pictured yesterday inside Dens for his contract extension, and McPake did say he was still feeling the knock he got against Hearts. Think he's safe, could potentially be Elliott but gaffer said he had also suffered a knock last week. Not aware of any other reason Kerr and McDaid would be out of the team.
