I'll be sorry to see him go,he's done a great job for a couple of seasons but is mebbe's just gettin that wee bit toooooo slow,here's comments fae our site for MFTJ ..........
Club captain Bobby Mann has been placed on the transfer list at his own request as assistant manager David Farrell explained to the press today "Bobby came to see us this morning and, after thinking over his request, we have decided to listen to offers for him, I thought he might have wanted to stay and fight to get back in the team, but he wants to seek pastures new and I can understand that, at his age, he feels he has to be playing regularly."
Bobby has played 95 matches for Dundee, scoring five goals in the process, since signing in 2004 from Inverness Caledonian Thistle where he had just captained the Highland side to the First Division title.
He holds the unique distinction of being voted player of the year by every single one of the Dundee Supporters' Association member clubs last season.
Bobby has been a regular for most of the current campaign but dropped to the bench when Gary McKenzie returned from injury to partner Gary Smith in the Boxing Day win over Partick and has started just one game since - the initial Tennent's Scottish Cup game at Dens v Queen of the South, when Smith was suspended.
He came off the bench late in extra time during Wednesday evening's replay at Dumfries and scored Dundee's first penalty kick in the shoot-out.
