    Don't mind the stepping stones bit if they commit while here.....to be fair almost all have
    Agree, if we get a player that we couldn't afford because he wants to put his talents on display and puts in a shift then full marks to him. Docherty must have been shocked at the performance against St Mirren.

    Do players on loan see their attachment to a club like ours as a stepping stone to greater things elsewhere, or do they see us as a desirable club to be associated with. Think the manager is the key. Docherty might be as good as McInnes and I think we should be helping him to build on the players he has brought in and encourage him to play our young players.
    Docherty did not give these players two years contracts as they had been awarded before he was appointed the manager. I think that Tim Keyes panicked and told Nelmsy to get these players signed up on two years contract especially Lyall Cameron, Luke McCowan and Josh Mulligan who could all have signed for another club. We would have received a development fee for Cameron and Mulligan and possibly McCowan if he was under 24 years old.

    I think he wuda been gutted more than shocked.

    In hindsight I think he wuda played 4 in midfield and got Boateng or mulligan into the team.

    Killie and st m strongest part of their sides is midfield.

    I think it was asking a lot for mccowan and Cameron to compete with such a lot at stake.

    Coupled with the fact sylla didn't have a good game.

    I think Doc will be good at tweaking and gaining marginal improvements in the team.....with signings and coaching.

    My disappointment comes from the fact even with that top 6 might not be achievable......wait and see.......but we have missed a glorious chance this season despite overachieving.

    I think that McCowan’s form has dropped since he was appointed captain.
    In my opinion Jordan McGhee would have been a better choice as captain of the team for the remaining games of this season.

    Agree. Still beat Killie and Hearts must be an ambition for our players. Least they can do to justify a new deal ?

    Most of the Dundee players have a two year deal apart from the players here on loan.

    Getting tight now, although demolition of the old NCR building has taken place. Of course that'll be something for the still deluded to cling to.

    Dark Blue Property Holdings Limited were granted permission to demolish this old NCR building in August 2022 which was before the last pre application meeting in the Landmark Hotel.
    I am surprised that it has taken Nelmsy so long to send in the bulldozers.
