Couldn’t make an impact in League 1. He is shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He left Hearts after Neilson was sacked. He said that he will give his side of the story when the time is right. Seemed more of a fall out with the board. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Toun Clock Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 I’m really intrigued by the ITK guys on here with regards to getting some of Dundee’s players. Guys like Fisher, Byrne & McMullan would be amazing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallumPar Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Now that the dust has settled and we’ve had time to calm down… how bloody good is that signing? It’s a real sign of intent. I know he’s unproven at championship level, but he was far too good for league 1. Really looking forward to seeing him at East End for the next few years. I’ve commented a couple of times on this, but Dunfermline feels like somewhere that players want to be right now. McPake, the coaching staff and the board deserve immense credit for that. We now have the manager/assistant, Todd, Hamilton and KRH on long term deals. Quite a few players recently signed 2 year deals as well. In the last 4/5 years, very few first team players have signed extensions to their initial contracts. It’s great to see that changing. I also don’t think we can underestimate the influence of the section NW guys. They’ve created an atmosphere home and away and get behind the team. The connection between fans and players is very strong right now and I hope that continues for a long time yet! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The appointment of the manager was good, something we had got wrong too many times before. Targeted low ST prices for the Section NW demographic having identfied what that section bring on and off the park. Both these things played a huge part in our turn around this season. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaton Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 (edited) Agreed. The fans adoration and connection with KRH from that section must have also played a part in him signing. As an older fan I'll admit to scoffing at it, but it's true, it's helping the club as a whole massively.

Gibb20 Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Some of the names i'm seeing on here this morning are just beautiful. I'm being lazy here but is McMullan, Byrne, McGhee & Jakubiak all out of contract? Would be buzzing to have Fisher back too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigmouth Strikes Again Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Byrne still under contract, would say you have no chance of getting Fisher. Hopefully we keep McGhee and Jak, you're welcome to McMullan. Thank you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General consensus around Dunfermline is that he is a ‘done deal’. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibb20 Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Not to mention he only featured in 6 league games for Dundee when he went back in January. So don't see him being played more now that you have gone up? Could all be down to who their new manager is I guess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallumPar Posted May 24, 2023 Share Posted May 24, 2023 Just listened to McPake’s interview - interesting to hear that it was agreed as part of the loan deal that we’d have an option to buy/make it a permanent deal. Another example of some good planning/negotiations from those in charge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contracts usually don’t expire until 31st May, so most websites will include players who have left until then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
