    It certainly is in mine. And I would be astonished to see this sorted out in time. Another managerial fiasco, which will likely end with an appointment that is either rookie or dinosaur.

    The Dundee FC board of directors should also be involved in the appointment of our the next manager instead of leaving it to John Nelms who does not have a good track record in this field and Gordon Strachan who appears to be only interested in appointing his pal and former players.

    John Nelms is the Dundee FC board of directors

    Agree with you but I think he must listen to someone because of a couple of things. Why did he not follow through on his decision to appoint McIntyre and Dodds, and how did he manage to persuade Mark McGhee to come to Dens. someone helped him to make these decisions, imo. I don't think anyone yhad McGhee as a serious contender on any of the Furums and someone must have persuaded him that Dodds was a step too far given the universal condemnation of Dodds on the Forums.

    He has someone read the forums and pass the info on to him. That's how he sussed the Dodds feeling.

    Can only have been Strachan that touted McGhee however the decision to sack McPake, at entirely the worst possible time, had Nelms written all over it but he must have known McGhee was ready to step in. He was obviously of the opinion that McGhee could actually make a difference. Had that name been mentioned on forums he'd have known how unpopular it would have been. It wasn't and he didn't find out until the appointment was made by which time was too late. I even doubt he knew about the touchline ban that was hanging over McGhee.

    I think that the person who used to read the forums is no longer employed by the club. Therefore Nelms no longer receives first hand information of what is being posted on the forums.

    Didn't know that Islay. However if that particular person is away then someone else will have been tasked with it.
