If you could point towards anything other than paper talk to suggest that it isn't happening then I would be keen to see it.

Wouldn't waste my time with him, full of wind and pish.

Thank you.

TDBF seem to think it'll be Lee Bullen and announced after Ayr have finished the play-offs.

I hinted at Lee Bullocks way back.

A Hull City fan signed up to the Dundee forum to suggest that Andy Dawson, a long term coach and multiple time caretaker manager more commonly known as Michael Dawson's older brother, is being interviewed by us for the job.

It makes sense that we haven't announced a manager yet as our target will still be in employment for another week.

Can't see it being Bullen though.

Aye, would be astonished if it's Bullen tbh. He's done well given his resources and we're undeniably in a stronger position than when he first arrived. Not sure that translates to a shot at Dundee yet, irrespective of the rumours of him heading back south to be with his family.

The fact you only approached Ian Murray, for an initial interview from a shortlist of 4, a few days ago, is a massive hint tbh.

If Murray has done enough to merit an interview then I would guess Bullen has too. It would be poor form if he's speaking to them while the play offs are ongoing though.

Is it Ray McKinnon done that to us a few seasons ago.

Especially if he used his club mobile phone to conduct negotiations.

He'd have to be a real snake to do such a thing!

Graham Alexander the latest we can rule out as he's off to MK Dons.

[Trogdor]

I'm willing to drive Bullen to Dundee if it gets it over the line.

Thank you.

You finished 2nd, behind only us who will have a massive budget in comparison to your lot and because you got papped in a 2 legged affair, you're hounding the manager out. No wonder you lot are consistently shite.

You misunderstand, he's done such a good job that I think he's earnt the opportunity at a Premier League club. It would be wrong to stand in his way.

He goes with my blessing, honestly.

Did you watch the game? The moron referee made an arse of it.

[Netan Sansara]

The referee is not the reason Ayr lost 8-0 on aggregate. I was at both games (and the Falkirk one in the cup). Bullen struggles to see what’s happening and make changes in reaction. I’d be very disappointed if he’s the calibre of manager we end up appointing. Shown nothing at Ayr to suggest he’d do well at Dens.
