I'm guessing it was taken straight from the photographer's personal collection. Obviously some folks are seething at the thought of 10 in a row. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lebowski Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Behind the goals at Dens. I was in this at the Hibs Aberdeen semi final in 1986 and have no recollection of it being this big. It looks enormous here. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in this at the Hibs Aberdeen semi final in 1986 and have no recollection of it being this big. It looks enormous here. Had a carry out a few times in there before the seats went in. Think both League Cup Finals United won there, there were no seats, and I'm unsure about the league winning match in 1983. Coincidentally, today the official Dundee site used the picture below to report on the events around their ground record crowd of over 43,000 in 1953. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as I was old enough to go with my mates I moved to the south Enclosure. My auld man always stood on the ' Provie' (Provost Road end). I can see the exact spot where him and his mates stood on this photo although for the first 14 years I went to Dens it was terracing. Fantastic view from the top of that end and great atmosphere when busy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Brees Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 1 and only time in that end was 5-1 game in 1980, don’t know if any Dundee fans will remember it, don’t think there were seats in it that day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nae seats in the midweek game there about a fortnight later that Celtic won 2-0 and saw Dundee relegated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That game's on Youtube. No sign of benches. Both ends seem to be largely filled with Celtic fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Inglis "Football Grounds of Great Britain"- the entry on Dens Park reads "in 1982-83 some £350,000 was spent on seating the South and West terraces". 350k at 1983 prices for some benches?! It wasn't Ann Budge's relative that got that contract was it?! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
