The other two paid up, Harkins refused - OYP. Good night sweet prince. :tears: I heard the other was Hemmings and he wasn't happy about the fine but paid it anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chateau Lafite Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 I know we agreed not to mention Liam Kennedy again but he's been punted/got a new job so won't be reporting on Dundee for much longer. Ludo, this guy talks such pish I'm sure he's the apprentice to Chic Young. I'd be delighted if it's true. I am fed up with DCT papers as they are badly Tangerine, so this would be good news. Nae trolling here now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duthie, Roache, Robertson, the Courier sports ed is a Dee and so is the new editor Dave Lord. I don't get how folk think they are biased one way or the other. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be wrong here but are the names you've quoted not simply professional journalists who are simply Dundee supporters / fans as opposed to ex or current Dundee FC employees? Whereas Christian Dailly, Lee Wilkie and Jim Spence (who all have weekly columns in either the Tele or Courier) are current or ex Dundee United FC employees in some capacity or other. I can't think of any regular columnist who is a current or ex Dundee FC employee. I'm not making a statement about whether or not there is bias, just simply that the aforesaid helps play to that narrative. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the stuff from the others that I've read is hardly pro United over Dundee. The paper's wouldn't allow it. EDIT: Rab Douglas has a Courier column. Also, the boy that does blether with Brown hosts functions at Dens at hospitality and everything. Think he's a pretty influential guy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No issues with what Wilkie or Spence have written, just suggesting it may play to the narrative. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee-FC92 Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 **Urgent** Old Granny Danger and Gibby82 missing from these parts since the weekend. Long time lurkers and perpetual posters, last seen in a boozy confrontation outside the 4J's after Uniteds defeat to Dumbarton. This is the last picture that was taken of both. Gibson can be well seen from his 1980's Abba-like hairstyle, whilst Dangers footsteps can be heard from 500m distance. Please help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Den Spark Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Ian Roache is a United supporter, I can guarantee that. Neil Robertson is neutral as he's more into rugby. The Courier sports ed, Eric Nicolson is NOT a Dee. He hovers somewhere between St Johnstone and Rangers. Take this from someone who worked with these guys. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't seen Danger since 7pm on Saturday when he was chapping random doors in the Stobie looking for ketamine and whelks. Sure he'll turn up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add in that he'd rather throw himself to the ground and moan at referee's instead of actually trying to play football, it's a big no thanks from me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose he is proven at this level.

Derry boy Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Yordi saying he wanted to pack it in is massively disrespectful and dont see Hartley liking the comments. Weve gave him a chance at professional football, surely he didnt think hed come here and just start straight away? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy would probably be a decent player if he concentrated on playing football rather than throwing himself to the deck like a big girl's blouse at every opportunity. I hope Hartley isn't planning on signing him in the hope of getting rid of his attitude and turning him into a player ala Phil Roberts. An emphatic no from me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifespud Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Hartley seems to love a project. Poor attitude, injury prone, amateur football - he'll take it on if he thinks he might end up with a player he couldn't otherwise afford. I tend to agree that you'll never change this guy however. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
