  1. Well he has been offered a deal at Dundee that's for sure. We've been announcing signings/ re-signings at the rate of one per day but he must be about the last of those who were offered to either sign or reject a new contract. I can't see him getting much game time so it wouldn't surprise me to see him take up a two year contract and then go out on loan.
  2. Haven't seen it in years. Back in the day with Ootdoor, Shuntz, King Dunger, Napps and Rio Dee, not to mention the melon that was Bob Jameson( AKA Deetox) it was a bit of a laugh
  3. Not a lot of people know that. ( I certainly didn't). But in this case the pupil mastered the teacher. Fascinating fact Oyster Catcher
  4. I read it not so long ago. It has a reputation as a seminal novel and is often promoted in these lists of "100 books you should read before you die" along side the likes of "1984" . Like you I found it a bit meh, in fact a bit childish...and as a prophecy of the future as seen from the 30s or 40's it has proven to nowhere near as accurate as "1984"
  5. Hopefully that all works out for him. He played for us a few times last season, mainly as a right back but it is difficult to imagine him featuring in the premier league (although given the current state of our squad who knows). The best case for him is that he gets the move and develops his career playing regularly for you.
  6. It is my understanding that all the players who came through our youth system and had played in the first team were offered a new contract. That'd mean that if Fisher signs for somebody else once his current contract expires Dundee would be due a development fee.
  7. So so salty. As if you'd have being moroning on about flares had your lot won.
  8. Your salty tears are pathetic. We could have played it without Dundee fans getting tickets and without your lot giving out tickets for free. Why not just limit it to 500 people ( supposing you could find 500 fans) just like the later stages of the pandemic.
  9. At least he's consistent. We've played them five times, won four and drawn one and that's been his reaction every time.
  10. Oh drear. So, a full year until the next promotion and you've no hope. No wonder you are so bitter
  11. Well done. I'd not been in Arbroath for ages until my Daughter moved there two years ago. Surprised and please to see so many young kids with Arbroath tops and kit and not the obvious "Big Teams" merch. Great to see folks supporting their local team. Relegation would have damaged this progression. Good luck for next season.
  12. If so still a twelve month you'd give your right hand for considering you've not appeared in the top league this millennium.
  13. The statistics say that we had 13 attempts at goal with 7 on target (compared with your 4-0). So not really ruthless at all. Your tears are salty and delightful
  14. "Squad depth is crucial" We had six on the bench, you had nine.
  15. I'm joking. I would have picked him myself if I'd been convinced that he would get an obituary in a major media outlet.
  16. A bit bad with the Johnny Irwin pick.. that's a real sweaty shout.
  17. Bugger, I've just put my list in after a hours debate with 'er indoors. The first person I mentioned was Bobby Charlton... who did I leave out? Bobby bloody Charlton. Good list BTW I was going to put Donald Trump but that was probably only wishful thinking, that and Jacob Rees Mogg
  18. This was a game at the Kingdome in Seattle in the late 70s between Seattle Sounders and NY Cosmos. I'll give you a guess who scored the only goal of the game (clue, it wasn't Pele)
  19. Was in this one earlier this year and it was pretty decent. It's in Church st so it is central https://samsindian.com
  20. Mom for me today was Williamson, he put in a hell of a shift and played a magnificent ball through for Rudden. Mc Mullan behind the front two excites driving at the opposition but it is fair to say his final ball often leaves a lot to be desired. The central back three were effective with Ashcroft being best of the trio. French was uncomfortable at RWB and really contributed little going forward. Byrne was effective without being flash. Why Kerr gets so much hate from our support is beyond me. He's not the best full back we've ever had but he's far from the worst. Lawlor was surprisingly good, made two great saves and seemed more comfortable coming for crosses than usual and his distribution is good. Sheridan was a shock choice to start but given his performance it wasn't a shock that he got hooked after 45 mins , honestly get rid, Rudden at least puts himself about. As for Osei Yaw the least said the better. Hamilton can consider themselves unlucky. On another day they may have gone home with a draw. However their style of play and general demeanour isn't generally appealing. Made me laugh to see themcomplain about Lawlor time wasting at the end when their keeper had been doing it almost from the kick off.
