McCann will be the longest serving manager in Scotland at this rate. He's the 17th as it stands. A few longer term ones on a tightrope just now aswell, every chance he breaks into the top 15. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno m8, none of us on here pick the team and managers don't generally release their line-ups 12 days in advance.

The only positive I can spin from this is that it'll show prospective applicants that we give them more than enough time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha! Like a Junkie, or anyone on under £60k a year, can afford to get into Dens! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugbypark Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 At this time of regeneration for Dundee, isn't it past time the two clubs were merged and called Dundee City. You could attract 15k with a successful team, similar to Aberdeen. Football has always evolved. As it stands, mediocrity is all you can look forward to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louis Litt Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Does anyone else think the huddle we're doing before matches now is a bit of a minter? The only reason I can think we're doing it is to signal that there's a togetherness in the squad when a bunch of folk were claiming either there wasn't or that the players weren't happy with the manager. Frankly, they can do their talking with results on the pitch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kristov Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 At this time of regeneration for Dundee, isn't it past time the two clubs were merged and called Dundee City. You could attract 15k with a successful team, similar to Aberdeen. Football has always evolved. As it stands, mediocrity is all you can look forward to. What would offend me more than any merger would be the lazy, unimaginative naming of the new club as Dundee City. Very civic but altogether insipid. Dundee FC was very nearly called Juteopolis- that would have been fucking smashing. Anyway, Dundee FC doesn't do mediocrity- if we're not surviving relegation to the third tier after 25-point deductions we're signing World Cup superstars. These last few years of top-flight football and boardroom stability have been the most uneventful in my 30 years of supporting the club. The roller coaster will no doubt start again when the new ground development falls through just after Dens is bought back. The Americans, before doing the whole Ron Dixon absentee chairman thing, sell Dens to the highest bidder to cut their losses, leaving us homeless fighting relegation to League 1. (The club, of course, being relegated in the all Dundee play off final the year before).McCann will be sacked, eventually, but he wont go quietly -insisting that the team was about to turn the corner and he wasn't given enough time. Unfair dismissal claims and lawsuits commence but, in a stroke of luck, Dundee escape costly legal battles after McCann's lawyers file their claims against the wrong city club. McCann, you see, has returned to Sky Sports by now and CAN'T TELL THE FUCKING DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DUNDEE AND DUNDEE UNITED. Jocky will be wheeled out his nursing home to take charge of the Championship playoff final against Arbroath. Jocky ultimately saves the club from the utter, utter ignominy of third tier football but is sacked the following season while the club is 5 points clear at the top of the league. Can't fucking wait. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite at least 5 longest serving managers in the top league. Along with just having a feeling Neilson wouldn't be good enough for Dundee but creaming himself at Barry Smith returning. Tragic human. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee are Footballs version of Pete Doherty, Utd are more Daniel O'Donnellesque. Could make an interesting partnership as Juteopolis. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D TOTAL Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Was looking at potential new managers then I seen county’s , How does co-managers work? No sarcasm genuinely curious, who has the last say? Who picks the team? What do they do if they aren’t in 100% agreement? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossDee01 Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Unfortunately sacking McCann won’t fix this mess at the football club. I backed McCann last season and said on numerous occasions that I thought he would come good but I hold my hands up, I was definitely wrong. I still believe that his ideas are good, but he doesn’t have the personality to be a good manger. In fact, he’s not even close. McCann obviously has to go ASAP but he clowns above him (Nelms, Martin etc) have to take an equal share of the blame for this. They are so out of touch with the fans it’s not even funny. Between 500-1000home fans down on last season already. Last season was also a fall on the season before yet they continue to ramp up the ticket prices season on season. 30 fucking pounds to watch us play Celtic when we’re sitting rock bottom of the league. I have a season ticket and I won’t even be there, hopefully more people do the same and stay away for that one. McCann has to go, but some others are just as culpable for the position we find ourselves in. Changing managers might keep us up this season, but it’s inevitable that if the board keep going the way they are, we’ll be relegated sooner rather than later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.T Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 The next manager we hire should have a clause in his contract that says if he loses 7 games in a row then he’s automatically sacked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
