    Foot.ie! Dundee in Adminstration

    I hear that Dundee of Scotland have gone into adminstration. I remember Drogheda picked up a few good players from Airdrie when they ran into trouble. I'm sure we could pick up a few good players......Maybe Ravanelli!!

    Definately. Shame about that though. I hate when clubs are threatened with closure by money-grabbing owners and bankers etc, who don't understand what it is to support a team.

    It's a pity to hear about Dundee as I thought they were making a real effort to try and get a bit closer to the Old Firm or at least establish themselves as 'The Third Force' of Scottish football in recent years with the signings of Caniggia, Ravanelli and the interest expressed in Davids. Clearly it was all built on sand though... a lesson for any club in there somewhere.

    I bet they're smug in Tannadice though!
    The ball is round and has many surprises.

    Any club could do what Dundee done, but they would be foolish people. Soccer nowdays is run by money, if you haven't got it success will be hard to find, sad really. What simple mined people lent them 20 million?

    Better off lending it to Kildare County. I'm sure we would have made Europe
    Any condescension detected in this post is fully unintentional and is solely the perception of the reader. If I think you're an idiot, I'll tell you that. You won't need to intuit it.

    If he played for a Dub team, i'm sure nothing would be done. Especially if Oily Byrne got hold of him... He'd have to change his name-

    How about nicking some of rovers players, I hear a lot of them are out of contract come the end of the season.
    I'm gonna take a blow torch to everyone who writes "any info on......." on the desks in the ucc library.

    Who's with me
