    Name a couple of things that would give us

    Best chance of being champions.

    I know it devalues season tics but I'd lower the price of admission for rest of season.....prob to oap price for all.

    GB to be less loyal to those who seem incapable of being dropped.

    I do fear if we don't go up this year it cud be another very long stint in the wilderness, probably at a 2 stand dens or tannadice

    Play Byrne and Wiliamson from the start. Drop McGhee into a back three. Drop McMullan until he gets his finger out, move Cameron out into McMullan's role. Too many wee and soft guys in our midfield. We can't afford that.

    Tje manager should play the team had their seven game winning run after Shaun Byrne was brought back into the team.
    The manager should by now know his best starting eleven and if he does not then it is time for him to resign and get someone in who knows what they are doing amd does not fall out with players.
    Incidentally Shaun Byrne who Dee4life sponsored last season was not sitting at their table at the Sponsors dinner last Sunday evening in the Invercarse Hotel.

    People have short memories if they think Byrne is the answer

    Wee and soft.......a recurring theme over the years.

    No sure if McMullan is in the cream puff ( hope not) but it will be an abject failure not to win the league.

    Certainly think QP are favs now but the upcoming fixtures may suit Byrne ( although I'm not one of those who think Byrne has to be in team ) hopefully we win Saturday but even cove away has danger written all over it when confidence is on the floor.

    Walked past Byrne at half even on Sandeman street
    He was speaking to a boy outside his car
    Doesn’t look like he’s near any starting 11 as long as bowyer is here

    Don't believe that Bowyer is still trying to get rid of Byrne? Why would anyone do that considering the run of decent results we got when he was playing. On TDB forum they have a thread where you can select the team . Had a wee look and 9 of the players that had the highest number of choices were in Bowyers starting line up. Byrne wasn't quoted at all and the two players Bowyer selected to start the game were McGhee and Hamant. TDB posters had Jakubiak and Williamson. Interesting?

    I think that Tim Keyes has stopped bank rolling Dundee Football Club and that is why Gary Bowyer was trying to encourage Sean Byrne to look for another club at the start of this season.
    GB needed to get the high earners off the wages bill to allow him to sign his own players.
    That in my opinion was obvious during the January transfer window when Niall McGinn, Derek Oesi and Joe Grayson were are allowed to leave to allow the manager to bring in a hat full of loan signings. Incidentally yesterday morning (Wednesday) Niall McGinn, Derek Oesi and Joe Grayson were still listed in the first team players section of the Dundee Football Club website.

    McMullan has been poor the last two games. Perhaps he has not received the offer of a new contract which is distracting him.

    Play more players with a goal threat and give a settled side a run of games.
