Was thinking the same after reading that McKeown was used as a wing back by Cowdenbeath. Thomson could easily play right wing back.

Pretty much any one of Hutton's pathetic rants from last season could be classed as PR cock ups. Drysdale would be best advised to just close his fantalk account rather use it to criticise his customers.

We would still need a couple of extra bodies even if that is the case. There is no obvious cover for full back or wide midfield.

No Spence then? If so then we should be closing the door on him.

There is nothing to confirm that international clearance is in relation to this 'exciting' signing.

Wighton has signed for Alloa apparently. Although this is from the most unreliable source in football.

All roads lead to the Fife institute tomorrow then to try and get a sneak preview of who is there.

Mullen should be too good for division three. I was a little bit surprised that we didn't offer him a new deal. Can do a solid job at full back or in central midfield.

We had Fleming play one game on an emergency loan against Partick. He made a couple of good saves but he was a total bombscare at cross balls. No idea if he's normally like that or not.

Based on very limted experience of both I'd rather we signed McKeown. His throw in could be a handy weapon with big Nade up front.

The striker isn't Nade is it?

Maybe he's training with another club?

Normally I would be encouraged by positive reviews from fans of a player's former clubs but look at Lee Robinson.....

Not convinced we'll get enough games out of Nade to make him a worthwhile signing, plus I can't see him and Elliot working as a partnership at all.

If he is we must be going with a different formation next season because that will be 5 central midfielders we'll have on our books.

Someone on fan talk has said Alloa have offered Spence a contract. Pre season starts a week today so presumably Murray will be back from holiday at the beginning of the week. If they still haven't made up their minds the offers need to be taken off the table.

Craig Barr signs on the dotted line. I wonder if the speculated new signing could be the Cowden left back McKeown? We might be signing him because of the new dimension his long throws will give us.

I don't know, Cardle has moved on now so there is a vacancy there.

The door closed on Fabregas when we signed Martin Scott,

We're now covered for goalkeeper, centre back and central midfield. Just need some wide players, a couple of full backs and two or three forwards.

Not a signing I was expecting but I'm glad we now have some real strength in depth for the position.

Not sure about Conroy. On the one hand anyone who was a regular in a team that won the league can't be that bad, but on the other Dundee fans seem to have him down as a lazy sod who wouldn't put in a tackle to save his life. He'll probably go to Alloa anyway....

This guy Pace was also born on 6 April, the same date as our challenge cup win. It would be madness not to snap him up.

Looks like it's not going to happen unfortunately.
