Ludo*1 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Not liking how much McPake loves a DAB. McMullan, Clark, Sow, Ciftci, Scott Robertson as coach, Combe have all been signed or targeted by him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Charming Man Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Who's that man kissing the hallowed, lush early season turf? Warm welcome back to Dens Park Alan Combe. Now awaiting @Dundee-FC92 posting a video of Georgi Nemsadze's sublime lob at Tannadice. Memories eh? Never let them slip, we'll be adding a few more this season in the derby encounters, that's for sure! Regards 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't get to George's game but i think they basically played the starting 11 from their obscenely good 87-88 season and were magnificent. My memory isn't what it used to be but I think McGeachie's Liverpool testimonial turned into a joint one with Jim Duffy who had a bad injury at Ibrox at the time and was never expected to play again. Fortunately he played again. But that could be nonsense 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both games were in late 1987 but Duffy's was a Sunday and McGeachie's midweek. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duffy's injury imo robbed us of one of the best central defenders of his generation. When he came back 2-3 years later with a still pretty fucked knee, he was still a class player and we weren't far off staying up in 89-90 partly due to his return. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember he made a wee speech before the testimonial and there were a fair few of us with a bit of dust in our eyes! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought at the time he was good but that turned out to be a massive underestimate. Recently saw a couple of derby games on BBC Scotland channel and he was excellent. Looked like a 1 man defence. He was winning every header, blocking most things coming into the box. His injury was a massive blow to us.

Bigmouth Strikes Again Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 (edited) Best CH I've seen play for us. Great player. Edited July 3, 2021 by Bigmouth Strikes Again 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 Duffy's ability to read the game was second to none. Always in the perfect place at just the right moment. Not in the McPake style of last-ditch tackles, but seemingly able to predict what the player with the ball was going to do before they thought of it themselves. Says everything about how much our football has fallen away in 30 years that a player with his ability didn't win a single cap. If he was around now he'd be a dead cert SFA Hall of Famer. Pair him with a big, physical centre half to go attack the ball and batter centre forwards, and you're good to go. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossBFaeDundee Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 (edited) According to TDB we beat Hamilton 5-0 in a bounce game today, goals from Ashcroft, McCowan (2), Jakubiak and McDaid. Edit: George Cran too Just turn Dens into an artificial pitch at this point. Edited July 3, 2021 by RossBFaeDundee 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
