| 61. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 11:15 He is a keeper, so he won’t be expected to do the same running as an outfield player. Yes, losing a bit of weight will help his agility, but on the flip side, he’ll be able to come for corners and crosses and bulldoze opponents out the way?

| 62. Author: GJS93 Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 11:17 ^^ he got pushed around at most of the corners yesterday doesnt matter if its part time or full time, a pro footballer should not be in that condition, i seriously doubt 4-6 weeks training will make much of a difference either. Terrell is injured but presumably the club knew they could have played a trialist if need be? too many questions around this but this better not be a sign of things to come.

| 63. Author: Clapham Par Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 11:18 Pretty sure I saw NL interviewed when the keeper was signed stating he needed `conditioning work`. So the management team clearly know he needs work on fitness/weight. I only watched the highlights so can`t comment on how he, and others, looked re overall movement. NL said they looked like they had an `extra layer` and looked off the pace and might need to look at the fitness plan. That doesn`t sound very encouraging re what is happening on the training pitch. Head scratcher how EK can look just so far ahead in terms of sharpness and movement. That Malik Zaid looked a very decent player. Reply |
| 64. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 11:21 Clapham Par, Sun 12 Jul 11:18 Zaid was impressive. Only 21 and bags of improvement in him. I hope NL was impressed too? NL also said that we may have been undercooked and then at the end said possibly overcooked. Can’t be both ? It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply |
| 65. Author: Clapham Par Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 11:27 Yes I picked up on that as well. Bit puzzling although I could see an argument that it could be both ie last seasons players still not recovered from end of season exertions and new p/t bit part players who aren`t up to speed for this level? Overall though it did just sound like he was deflecting a bit to protect the players after an unexpected humping. Reply |
| 66. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 11:28 Clapham Par, Sun 12 Jul 11:18 Yes I thought the same re Zaid. Overall EK looked to have better movement. The 2nd and 3rd goal were defensively very poor. I thought our keeper should have made himself big for the 2nd not small. He is out of condition in my view, should have done better with the 2nd but is was two goals due to poor defending be the centre backs. G Wardrope Post Edited (Sun 12 Jul 11:29) Reply |
| 67. Author: Sacktheref69 Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 12:17 Playing devil`s advocate here, but all our goalkeepers seem to get worse since we signed them. Do we need to look at bringing in a new goalkeeping coach? We can`t just keep signing keepers and not see any real improvement (seeing a decline) from them. This is Andy Tod`s world and we are lucky to live in it. Reply |

| 69. Author: Bertie Paton Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 17:22 Just noticed Aaron Donnelly`s mother started following us on X. I have seen it many times when a family member starts following us on X the player turns up not long after. Post Edited (Sun 12 Jul 17:23) Reply |
| 70. Author: Buster_Brown Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 17:41 Bertie Paton, Sun 12 Jul 17:22 We were linked to him in January but it never happened (obviously). Hope so, I like what I saw of him when he first arrived at Dundee Loving You, Is In My DNA Reply |
| 71. Author: desparado Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 17:43 Left sided Central Defender…. What an opportunity we missed in 2014. Reply |
| 72. Author: GJS93 Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 17:54 and in part so is Robinson with Lennon quoted as saying "he is going to play", IF it happens, could he play in the middle of a back 3? not sure on that. Reply |
| 73. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 19:31 He was told he could leave Dundee in the summer as not in the clubs plans. G Wardrope Reply |
| 74. Author: red-star-par Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 19:33 Bertie Paton, Sun 12 Jul 17:22 I still find it mind blowing that someone would even know stuff like who Aaron Donnelly`s maw is on X Reply |

| 76. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 19:46 He has alot of potential so a permanent signing would be best, but could be a season long loan deal. Depends on Dundees financial.position. He would get regular first team football. Given NL and the coaching staff have improved players chances of international.football, this would be a good move for both parties. At 23 he needs regular football. G Wardrope Post Edited (Mon 13 Jul 10:50) Reply |
| 77. Author: CitizenPar Date: Sun 12th Jul 2026. 20:29 Malik Zaid was impressive with Edinburgh City, first as a loanee from Hibs before signing a permanent contract with EC. He`s only recently joined East Kilbride, but if our remit is to develop good young players he`s definitely one we should be keeping an eye on. Reply |
| 78. Author: GJS93 Date: Mon 13th Jul 2026. 10:44 maybe he will sign but after a 20 minute sub appearance, he is cup tied for the league cup so that puts to bed the rumour thats going round of him signing and playing tomorrow night Reply |
| 79. Author: Indiapar1 Date: Mon 13th Jul 2026. 11:10 Noticed that too. Seems a bit odd to play someone in a cup game even for 20 minutes if you have told them they can leave. He had a 3 year deal when he signed so maybe trying to put him in the shop window, sell for more money, cup tie him for other clubs in Scotland, take another look at him before letting him go?
