We are already totally unsustainable. Players can be punted and in the case of King and Powers probably should be. I can see the value in Butcher doing his thing, but only if he has a good player beside him - that isn't Harkes imho.

Aladdin Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Staying up this season would be a success.If we avoided relegation and coupled it with a run of some sorts in a cup I dont think you would hear any fans complaining. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You had fans complaining whilst walking the league last year wanting the manager sacked. Then rejoicing when he got a new deal, then claiming he wasn't a loss when he left. You'll always have fans complaining. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people don't realise this then they should go watch the private school boys play piley on while chasing eggs. Fwiw I was stunned into joyous laughter and thunderous applause when someone paid us nearly a quarter of a million for Robbie. He got us promoted but by christ it was painful to watch the majority of the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep but fans are serial moaners, there were some Livi fans wanting Holt sacked around Oct/Nov when we hit a bad run (3 defeats in a row were Motherwell A, Sevco H & Celtic A too), and we ended up having our 2nd most successful season ever in the top flight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were a fucking cracking side the second half of last season and would've overtaken Livingston with ease if it had been played out. I'll be very disappointed if we are in the bottom half next season. Aye and Hearts would've avoided relegation too. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Form table had Hearts getting relegated, form table showed Saints were only going one way. Happy you boys finished as far up as you did, just don't get used to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say their opinion was in any way valid or reasonable. I know I'm very much on the negative and demanding side of things (and yes I do sit in the George Fox) but I'm not daft enough to think my opinion matters a jot to the manager or the club. But then their opinion isn't as important as mine! There were a good few were times last season where Neilson was blatantly out smarted, out thought and just plain old got it really wrong and it was painful to watch him stick by his poor decisions and Peter Pawlett. I'm glad we now have a manager that (by the sounds of it) changes his system to suit what he's got and who he's up against. We've missed that for years and I look forward to maoning about his constant tinkering with the team. Hes already dropped Shankland ffs. Get him oot! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aladdin Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I take it you've never sat in the George Fox?Had a season ticket in the GF lower for a couple of years and it wasnt too bad. Only moved to the ET because the GF seemed to have a high number of kids who were up and down constantly for the toilet, juice, crisps etc.And I felt ashamed of my failure to moderate my language at times. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accent-Unknown Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 One of the biggest issues with Neilson (since we're moaning about him again) is that his plan B was always better than his plan A. That great run of 14 unbeaten games in the league came when his favorites where out injured and he had to switch the players who actually deserved to be there. We started to stutter with wins becoming draws conveniently around the time when Pawlett came back from his injury and he kept rotating Connolly, Watson, and Reynolds despite Watson and Reynolds working really well together. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFARAB82 Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Long time viewer of the site just haven't logged in for ages but how refreshing is it to be going into a new season as Dundee's Premier Team? Down to the global Barsteward the number of games i will make next season will be limited but hopefully will be back in 2021 anyone rushing back in October or waiting until next year? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit harsh swearing at kids but I understand the frustration with having to let them and their extended families past half a dozen times a match. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
