    Are you kidding mal?

    WILLIAM “PLUM” LONGAIR.
    The first Inductee into the Hall of Fame was William “Plum” Longair who served the club for 33 years, captaining the side in its first ever match in 1893 against Rangers at West Craigie Park.
    He went on to make over 100 appearances and brought international recognition to Dundee by becoming its first ever-international player when capped against Wales in 1894.
    After his retirement from playing he helped train the team, including the Scottish Cup winners of 1910 and in over 20 years of coaching he never missed a game. A ******* legend!

    Feel sorry for our two lads tonight. Winning 2-0 and second goals set up by Costelloe but ended up getting beat 2-3 with one of the goals a penalty given away by Dodgson for a push for which he was booked and Costelloe was also booked.
    Nothing like making them feel at home.

    Of course BT Bobby Seith not only played for both clubs but helped Burnley win the League title in 1959/60 before going on to secure a SFL Championship with Dundee in 1961/62. Both clubs currently have American owners and this partnership is no longer idle speculation but very much a Dundeed. I trust there will be no need for a William McGonagall epic to be written about this historic link up on the Silv’ry Tay.

    Apparently ALK are going to send people up to help them run their club, lend them some of their expertise. Seems a bit presumptuous to me, as we head for our 2nd relegation in three seasons you'd think they'd try to get the hang of running their own club first.

    Maybe they need some advice or help with business side.Our creative accountancy team-by all accounts are a formidable force in that department.

    These my sentiments exactly Sinkov - get your own house in order first and then you can look at other options.

    I’m thinking our house is no where near in order

    Are we growing our fan base in the US? Are we selling merchandise like never before?
