The Toun Clock Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 I think I might explode if we sign no one bar a fucking goalie before Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Obviously disappointing for Mehmet and you lads to lose your first choice but I'm delighted for Sharp. Will get first team experience at a bigger club than I really envisioned him getting a start for this season and it will really be time to see if he has a future at Dundee as he is now 4th in our pecking order. At 22 years old, he'll be getting some great experience and he is highly rated as I've said before having been in around our first team at times, recently signing a new 2 year deal and being in and around the Scotland U21 squad. Previously said his distribution was a weak point, but he featured for our B team last night (thus cup tying him for you lads in the Challenge Cup?) and he was responsible for a few of our goals with some mammoth kicks causing chaos in the Buckie backline: All the best and I hope he keeps a clean sheet against the DABs! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye hopefully he's instructed to stick it on top of Sinclair-Hutton from the start. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 What a shitter of a pre season we have had. Sharp might be a decent signing but it’s hardly what you are needing. Arguably our best player, best winger, and now our main goalie all out injured. A horror scenario. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every cloud and all that. Mehmet earned that number 1 shirt and it’s a shame he’s out, when he was in the form of his life. Hopefully this guy can come in and prove that he’s a great keeper. That’s some distance on his kicking. Might have to put 50p on Sharp to score away to Arbroath! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye he'll be cup tied for the Challenge Cup game(s) so we'll need to play a youth keeper if Little is off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obiwanyouknowme Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Preferred when the club didn’t make announcements. Should change the pen gif to an ambulance. First choice keeper and 2 of our most attack minded all out and no be back till September at best. No like August will be a big month only playing United and the Rovers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heaton Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Well the good vibes from last season and the KRH and Fisher signings is truly gone now. It was fizzing out anyway but that's really put us on a downer. Please give us some good news ffs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obiwanyouknowme Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 (edited) Partick announce 2 new faces Morton add one Ayr about to announce a signing. Meanwhile we sign a keeper on loan because our first choice got injured. Something is no right, either our board are as tight as a ducks backside or McPake has no appeal. frustrating as fxxk Edited August 3, 2023 by obiwanyouknowme 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Raith, Inverness, Partick & you lads battling it out with a couple of Irish teams for Shaun Byrne. Can't see him heading to Ireland or Inverness with his family situation. https://www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/sport/football/dundee-fc/4610242/dundee-shaun-byrne-wanted-raith-rovers-dunfermline/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The few signings we have made have been good ones but it does seem to be a slow process that leaves us needing numerous players late on. It worked out last year but we were lucky with injuries last year and the quality of opponent wasn't as good. I have a real fear that we might get punished this time. 3 key players out and no sign of any players coming in. If Wotherspoon turns us down (i'm guessing he was the close signing two weeks ago?), where do we go from there? Back to where we were 3 weeks ago. Having listened to our recruitment process, it sounds like something Man Utd would have in place for signing 70 million quid targets. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said they wanted to do business early but like last season have left it late again. I fear will be in relegation fight again this season and they will only have themselves to blame. this quality over quantity line is wearing thin with the fans. Have to take a risk at some point on a player. teams around us strengthen with overseas and players from down south and we don’t, what’s the point in a German connection if we can’t benefit from the players over there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
