    One thing we know for certain is that the coach/manager position will as usual only be temporary as the inevitable outcome will be the sack, the same as there are no guarantees with any manager appointed that they will be successful even after achieving success elsewhere.

    I'm excited to see what he brings, as it may be different and perhaps just surprise us all, nobody knows.

    Give him a chance.
    Agree

    We sounded like an old firm fanbase yesterday, talk of not going back, wanting a refund on season ticket was hysteria on stilts.

    The most important thing at a club like ours is recruitment, let?s see where we are in 8 weeks time at the end of the transfer window.

    Some also re writing history on Doc.

    145 goals conceded in two seasons

    Let that sink in

    You are right. He has to be given time. I just hope that he will not allow John Nelms to interfere in team selection, because he will be judged on results. The reaction yesterday was way over the top. I would say he needs at least three months. We will all have an idea by then.

    Not my first choice by any means and a very risky appointment, but it?s bizarre watching people get so excited annd upset especially the ones that rarely go.
    Some boys getting out their pram about a team they rarely go and see.

    Zoomers.

    See the tragic thing about all this, there will be some ?fans? and I use that loosely that will want him to fail.

    I will never understand why people who watch DFC through a dodgy stick and contribute absolutely nothing to the club, can get so excited about a managerial appointment.

    He wasn?t my choice by a longshot, but I don?t think I?ve wanted a Dundee manager to succeed more than him.

    Said it before, we have some of the worst supporters in Scotland.

    Still unsure and even more so after the Nelms interview, why he was not given the Technical Manager (head of development) role and another person the Head Coach role?

    Given his successful role at EPL Brentford.
