Has the Ultras/Casuals scene not disappeared from Scottish football? I thought it was happening in the 1970's which was 50 years ago. Are senior citizen supporters from that era who still attend today carrying the the same sort of threat?

You have forgotten two important facts.
1. There is a gap between Dundee supporters leaving the Main Stand at the end of the game as sections A,B nd C are empty so the Dundee and Motherwell supporters will not be ‘cheek by jowl’ when they empty into Sandeman Street.
2.Dundee supporters sitting in the Main Stand know how to behave themselves.

Apart from the DJ.😂

Re - The Derry, still do not understand why it can't be reopened ?
We were in the Derry before Covid arrived, and now it's sat empty for over a year, and a half.
Nothing has changed, the safety security changes are all still in place, plus there has never been hot water, it was only closed when the water was frozen in the winter.
I am getting pissed off with the situation, I purchased a season ticket in my usual seat and I can't get in.
Feel like going in to ask for my money back.

You can still go online today and buy a season ticket for the Derry despite it not having anyone in it for 18 months. Seems odd to keep selling tickets for an unopened area now

At lunchtime today I sent an email to Jim Thomson stadium manager at Dens Park asking
1. Why is a staggered entry system still in place for the entry to the Bobby Cox Stand for the Motherwell game this Saturday when social distancing ended on Monday 9th August 2021.
2. Why are Motherwell supporters able to sit in the Away section of the Main Stand but Dundee supporters are not allowed to sit in the Main Stand.
3. When is the South Enclosure going to be reopened to allow Dundee supporters sit there during home games.
So far I have not received a reply from Jim Thomson.

No but perhaps something will be done? Hoses got shifted so wondering if we shut up about the SE something might get done. You know the mentality, if you keep going in about it, I am not going to respond to bullying etc.

Remember the old saying “If you don’t ask you don’t get”.
In my email to Jim Thomson I also said to him that there was a lot of disquiet on the Dundee Football Club forums about the South Enclosure still being closed with no information from the Club advising when the Dundee supporters are going to be allowed back in.
It does not affect me if the South Enclosure is open or closed as pre Covid I sat in the Main Stand and will be going back there when it eventually reopens.
However I am happy to do my bit to try to find out when the Club are planning to reopen the South Enclosure to allow Dundee supporters to sit in their chosen stand at Dens Park.

I would.

There will be little chance of any trouble as the Motherwell FC fans are being held back inside the stadium after the match to allow the home support who are in the Shankly to clear the area.

This was stated in one of the letters given out when puchasing a ticket for the Motherwell game.

Can't be right gen, a simple solution like this.....if only eh, Dundee cuda been occupying the bottom end and having a better atmosphere for years.

Stop making things up.😁
