It's alright lads, I gather it's Alan Main.

Is it smoked or unsmoked?
What deviants are putting red sauce rather than brown?

 

I meant the 2nd event that was free, surely it would have made sense to stream it so we can all have a listen? 

Better be a Stephens roll! Unsmoked, grilled, butter/spread on both top and bottom (of the inside of the roll), brown sauce.

 Away kit? Fucking stinking, don't think we won wearing it and brings back all sorts of horrible recalls.

If we were remaking the green and purple then it had to be great. Instead we got a training top at best. I remember when they announced the colour snippets with the Joma logo on Twitter, I had a stiffy for days. Soon went away when I seen the kit. Haven't had one since following last season's performances on the pitch.

Also, hope it’s better than that Hibs effort. That looks really cheap and tacky.

Only seen it briefly on Twitter but I have to say I quite like the Hibs effort. Was always going to be tricky to better last season's one with the map of Edinburgh on it.

Line in the Press this week saying McPake "is about to welcome a new assistant".

Also says he "wants Academy players out on that pitch", although what manager doesn't say that?

No further news on Dorrans future or signings.

Courier have just reported that McPake has been impressed with him in training but they've not talked about the future yet. Sounds to me as if he could be staying and not a case of wanting a big earner off the payroll. Mentions how important Dorrans values his pre-season, something he didn't do last year after coming right off the Australian season.

Who do we think his assistant will be? Dave McKay seems the most likely but not sure what his role is at Dundee now if any?

Mackay's currently the *other* assistant manager, but I imagine he's been more of a first team coach (which was his original role with us) since the departure of McPake. He basically played the role of 'coach that all the players know and like' while McGhee and Rusk paraded around not knowing a thing about them. He could well still perform that duty with Bowyer and Barr, but it seems we might be prepping Scott Robertson for that kind of role. Mackay ending up alongside McPake again is the most likely situation.

Regarding the sub-quote, I'd be very surprised if McPake didn't want to keep his mate Dorrans in the fold, potentially even in a coaching role (idk what the coaching setup is like for you guys so not aware how viable that is). As for the Academy quote, one of McPake's best managerial qualities is seeing the potential in youth players and giving them a chance, and he did very well in introducing several of our academy players to the squad with success and whom are now regulars in our team.
