Because I havnt seen anything better. Probably the best time of my life supporting dundee when they were here. Pretend money or not for me at the time was irrelevant, was home n away watching us n was just great. I was lucky enough with Dundee I went out to Perugia. He brought a Claudio Caniggia to Dens. An incredible time even winning f**k all. Your older ( sure you said 50s) so you may have seen good football before I was born. I've seen f**k all apart from them moments with the Bonettis n who they brought in. Felt good writing that tbh. However right this moment supporting Dundee..... aye less said the better ( says pretty much every c**t ) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin_Nevis Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Some of the football and players at Dens during the Bonetti were were mental. The Sara hat-trick was a glorious night, only soured by that disgraceful challenge from which I don't think FabCab ever truly recovered. Then that Nemsadze chip at Tannadice after a sunstained chant of "You've only got two points" at a seething DAB support, beating both the bigot brothers away and some mad goalfests in away games. I mind one 3-2 win at McDiarmid where we really should have scored 8. Caniggia missed at least 3 one-on-ones and we somehow failed to score from a 5 on 2 breakaway. Wild. For all that though we won absolutely nothing and the club have never really recovered in the 20+ years since. We continue to allow absolute chancers into the boardroom and continue to throw money at shite managers and look destined to be a yo-yo club for years. Pish. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That season fell apart totally when it had started so well. Since then, bar some exciting mid-90s stuff in Division One, it's been unremittingly shite. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team that followed with McGowan and Kamara in centre midfield was always a competitive Premiership side as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam89 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 What a sad time being a Dundee fan. I’ve completely lost my passion for the club and feel absolutely no hope going forward that things will improve. On and off the park there is no clear strategy, no purpose, no leadership. The disconnect between the club and fans is the lowest I can remember in my lifetime. Nelms is utterly hopeless and completely out of his depth. Fast forward a few years and we’ll be in league 1 at this rate. Yep, a truly heads gone, verge of tears post. Anyway, please continue… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to predict IMO. In his defence, he was in Italy meeting with Macron along with Provan Sports, a trip which was planned ages ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crawford Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 If they get their development, they won't be investing more in Dundee FC, it will just be part of the maintainence from income. They really couldn't give a flying F what division we are in, as long as they get their project sooner rather later. The club is less expensive for them the longer we stay up but it's really inconsequential. Stadium income, rental income and let the cash roll in. Screw the club and the supporters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
