Apologies if he was discussed earlier, but I was surprised Imrie from Morton wasnt among the names listed up there.

When he's not playing Arbroath, he's clearly got a bit of nous about him, and I'm a little surprised a bigger club hasnt taken a punt on him.

Taking away from the fact Dundee fans and him don't tend to get on, I think he's just done a job that can't be labelled as anything more than 'fair'.

Been in charge for pretty much 18 month and to miss out on the play offs with a FT team in this league, regardless of the challenges at the start of their season, isn't something that I think should have bigger clubs come looking tbh.

Morton fans are happy with him and that's fair enough but he's not done anything to deserve a move up the ladder IMO.

In other words you've made an arse of yourself again and you don't know how to respond. 

Martindale, for a variety of reasons, wont walk away from his Livingston job.

So yeah, hes clearly at mind games a large chunk of the time at interviews.

I'm not sure I agree.  Since Arbroath have been promoted, Morton have been a total joke and a basket case, getting in Imrie has really stabilised them and he seems to have had a positive effect at all levels.  Were Morton not also about 5 minutes from doing a Dundee last summer, with their budget suddenly slashed to zero? Under Imrie, Morton are no longer a point and laugh story for the first time in years, which both reflects well on him and is a shame.

Although he's done a decent job, Dens is far too big a deal for the bold 'Doogie', think he'll make the playoffs next season though. That will keep the Morten slavering.

Thank you.

Dougie has done well and players clearly play for him.  However, he hasn’t done anywhere near enough to warrant a bigger move.

Imrie Smimrie. Small time small fish. Dundee is box office.

Right so who the f**k are we appointing?

Nobody knows, especially not those making the decision.

I think they had an idea once. I also think they got shocked just as much as the man who should be in the job still.

Think he's over it. Went to have a snoop on LinkedIn and he was ripping the pish out of Dougie Imrie for wearing chinos.

Apart from Morton and Hamilton fans who actually does get on with Dougie?

Bringing the conversation back to Livi... I reckon that could be his next move depending on when Martindale goes. 

[Pens_Dark]

I see Charlie Adam made a point of crossing the border today...

[Bigmouth Strikes Again]

Charles with an experienced assistant? He's bound to have decent contacts for players, better choice than 'Clum' that's for certain.

Thank you.

Seen someone suggest Vignal/Adam co-managing with Strachan taking an even more hands on role to support them.

I'd still be appalled by it but it's better than the likes of Courts and Davidson if only due to the unknown factor.

Still, the fact that there's even a possibility we could be open to that sort of idea shows what a shitshow this has been.

Player and coach at a good level all his career. Coach and loans manager at Burnley currently and spent the past season watching youth level football around England. Good contacts like you say.

Wouldn't be against it but it's another rookie manager..
