You are of course correct Scotty, the erses that think up and try to enforce these rules are entrenched in the OF mindset of only "big" clubs should be able to join the "big" boys. I think i'm correct in saying we were the first to suffer to any great extent having to get our stadium "SPL compliant" to get promotion, which was the start of years of financial woe, culminating in the near demise of the club.( i appreciate we were the architects of our own downfall in many ways,but believe this was forced on the directors who gamled, and lost,persuing the dream) Whatever folks opinions regarding DFC's "big spending" this season, there is absolutely no doubt in my mind there would be one less club in Scottish football today, due to the intransigance and shortsightedness of the SPL,were it not for the will and determination of Dee4life. Footballing ability and results should be the ONLY criteria when it comes to promotion and relegation.

WHOOOOOOSH! Some light reading for ya Caleyrule clicky here.... :024:

Piece of nonsense sacking Mowbray, the guy had them second top of the league,then a few bad results followed by a humiliating doing from a team struggling at the foot of the table and he's oot the door,some fans just expect way too much!! ............................

The limited budget is apparent though. They don't do much in the way of replays of incidents/chances. Agreed, but with the budgets involved i was impressed,shame they have been knocked back again from going on Freeview, which i would have thought was the obviuos platform for Alba. I think they should loosen the Gaelic only grip and move to a more general Celtic channel encompasing all areas of Scottish heritage and broadening the appeal. edited to add.. Kinell JB, we nearly agree on something :004:

Gaelic or no,it was great to be able to see the game live and i easily blocked out the foreign commentary (shame the result wasnt better) Thought the camera work and presentaion was very professional and if Alba are the only Telly company prepared to cover lower division footy, so be it, we'll just need to indulge them for our own benifit i spose.

No doubting that JB, at the moment.

Fair play guy's, good result and exactly what any team with idea's of winning the league should be doing to the bottom team. Momentum deffo on your side now,will you's handle the pressure and expectation? We'll see. Well done to County as well, great result for them :D

Was billy dodds not chisholms assistant? Dodds was strikers coach at QOTS,he's now assistant to Chisholm at Dens

Kenny Brannigan who was Chisholms assistant was moved up

JB NOTHING will EVER meet with the approval of all on that board, GAURENTEED

Thought my smiley at the end of my last post indicated my thoughts on this appointment JB.Chis was being actively sought as a manager prior to Jocky's appointment but opted for an extension on his contract and went on to take QOTS to a cup final and europe. Could personally have stomached Jobbie McCall but think the division amonst fans would have been detrimental, so all things considered,whilst disapointed things didn't work out for Jocky I'm hopeful the timing of this appointment will prove positive. Surely you learned about getting confident on collecting yer bets too soon eh?

Official announcemet of new manager at 7pm from Dens

Didnae see that ane coming.

Probably correct Pele McCall in talks

What, your going back to watching Dunfermline?

For anyone interested (and going by the number of posts on here about us, there's a few) Dundee V QOTS is live on BBC Alba on Tuesday night

Jose Muriniho?

Fair do's JB

I've supported Jocky wholeheartedly all season and argued with the naysayers but todays result on the back of the recent run made his position untennable in my opinion, and i agree action had to be taken.It's obvious problems have developed behing the scenes and taking no action was not an option,so Yes, i am happy with the decision.

ICT win league i give you botle of the above mentioned DEE's win league, you purchase same for meh consumption :( :(

Same thing happened in 98 when John McCormack had us 5 points clear but it was felt he couldn't finish the job.The man that was brought in to get us promoted..............? Jocky Scott!! Never a dull moment

Yep.

ya fife tightwad,eh'll tak that as a NO then? if back peddling was an olympic sport you'd be in a medal position the noo

As the banker would say " deal or no deal? "

Cyber handshake on a 10 year old bottle of Glenfarcles it is JB
