Ludo*1 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Waddell wasn't behind Higgins in the pecking order. They played two different positions, Kerr centre half and Daniel centre midfield. Daniel got his first team chance in central defence because of injuries and the fact that Kerr had gone out on loan to Clyde at the time. Good luck to both of the young lads. Higgins has been converted to a CH. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s where we’re going." As a few people have said the terms of the lease will be important. If Dundee were given a 150 year lease at a token rent not owning the ground could actually be an advantage. If the conference etc. business goes bust the ground's holding company and the club will be fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah thats my hope anyway and you'd assume it wouldn't be in the Americans interest to cripple the club with a hefty rent bill so it could be a very sensible bit of business if its done right 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtie78 Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 This boy played LB for you at Gayfield last night. The Aucho boy mentioned before played holding midfielder and I think the striker might've been a trialist too. None of them looked great tbh. Mostly u20s for Dundee, and Arbroath put out a weakened/makeshift team. Dundee won 2-0. Only players I recognised for Dundee were Parish, Dryden, O'Hara and the 2/3 trialists. CB looked like Meekings but wasn't sure if it was him or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told it was 1-0 with Curran scoring, any idea who scored the other? thank you 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mishit a cross and it went all the way in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifespud Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Sounds like what Stewart Milne says about Aberdeen moving grounds, Nelms/Keyes aren't property developers are they? Geoff Brown is very like a small time Stewart Milne. Geoff made a fucking packet out of the McDiarmid Park job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny how folk can see different things in a game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to get invested in something that hasn't even been designed yet, let alone paid for. Even harder to compare it to stadiums built in Scandinavia a decade ago. It's good to see other clubs are enthusiastic about it though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DigOutYourSoul Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Any indication as to who the left back is? McCann trying to find someone to replace holt? Interesting how one person and said they were both poor and another says they were both great. From what I've read the Aucho boy really impressed at Aberdeen so might potentially be a bit of a player. Who knows though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
