All things Dundee FC
Shadow Play replied to Mr Gandosaur's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
Good point well made. Also, how many fans have Rangers identified and banned? -
Rangers may well have sold out their allocation but I doubt we have. Like some supporters of other clubs, there are a number of Dundee fans, including season ticket holders, that simply refuse to attend games against Rangers and Celtic so total ticket sales so far are likely to be under 10,0000. Given the general behaviour of “a small minority” of their fans and the sectarian / political songs that are repeatedly belted I can’t say I blame them.

Surely not? @Arab_R_us could you clarify if the pitch invasion at Ayr was indeed the case? Also, I notice you didn’t say whether invading the pitch at Airdire was an appropriate way to celebrate a 1-0 victory against them. Given how most of us on here value your opinion is there any chance you can give it please? Thank you. -

I think making top 6 is something worth celebrating. Like United, Dundee have only did that twice in the last 10 seasons* United fans on the other hand invaded the pitch when they beat Airdrie away in the Scottish Cup. That to me is not something that’s worth celebrating in that manner. Each to their own though. *As you know I like to think of myself as being a fair person so it’s only right that I point out that United were in the Championship for 5 of those 10 seasons so maybe it’s a bit unfair comparing United’s top 6 finishes with Dundee’s. -
Dundee players were in exactly the same position as the Rangers players. One manager managed to get a result from their players this weekend while the other manager did not. Sounds like a Clement problem to me.

Last week the Dundee players were in exactly the same position as the Rangers players in that they didn’t know if the games at Dens was going ahead or not. One manager was able to get a performance out of their players this weekend while the other manager did not. This despite the fact that the Rangers squad cost significantly more to assemble. Sounds like the problem lies with Clement. I think Clement, and a Rangers for that matter, would have been wiser not to get drawn into any controversy surrounding the pitch at Dens and simply concentrated on keeping the Rangers players focussed for their match against Ross County. -
Does anyone know when the Rangers statement is being released condemning Clement’s lack of professionalism when he neglected the time honoured tradition of shaking hands with his Ross County counterpart at the end of the game?

I assume Clement was happy the pitch in Dingwall was payable? Although to be fair he didn’t look too happy at the end when he stormed down the tunnel without shaking hands with anyone. I know Rangers are very keen for professionalism to be displayed at all times in the Premiership so I am fully expecting another statement calling out this lack or professionalism on Clement’ s part. @bennett are you able to confirm if a statement is to be issued on this matter? -
Sounds like Dens will be the ideal pitch for Rangers on Wednesday then.

You do seem to have developed a terrible habit this season of posting how the league positions would look if Dundee loose and St Johnstone win certain games. I think we can all do basic arithmetic. I can’t believe I am saying this but is there any chance you can go back to posting stats and pie charts about players please? -

I believe both clubs you have named will have spent more on their squad than Dundee have. Perhaps it is not all about the amount of money you spend. -

Superb. He looks like a lifeguard there which is appropriate because this season McCowan has saved me from the ails and the ills and from other things -

Shadow Play replied to Lichtie78's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
So I can’t pop in here for a minute or two? I appear to be getting a very hostile reaction here. Just simply seeing if people have changed their mind? A very fair assessment I would suggest. -

Shadow Play replied to Lichtie78's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Now, now. No way to treat a near neighbour. I simply posted tonight to see if those who have repeatedly refused to consider McIntyre has been a poor appointment still feel that way and back him for next season. Seems reasonable to me. -
The Arbroath Thread
Shadow Play replied to Lichtie78's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
I came on here a good while back saying that it was a bad appointment and that McIntyre would do nothing to improve the club - especially with regards to the team bonding that is so important. Everyone on here will know who they are but there were regular posters on here that repeatedly refused to acknowledge it was in any way McIntyre’s fault and that he was placed in an impossible situation. I wonder if they will finally acknowledge they were wrong about him? Alternatively I assume they still have faith in him turning this around next season? -

McCowan is definitely Derry’d oot his nut! On a serious note I hope the board do everything they can to extend his contract. I don’t think anyone doubts he is a very important player for us. -
Dandies v those Dastardly Dees
Shadow Play replied to ScottyDee1893's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
I’m not sure but Shinnie deserves a fair bit of credit for that over the three games this season. -

Top 6 achieved with a game to spare! United showed last season just how difficult it is to stay in this league so top 6 is a great effort!
