Quite often, guys come out and say 'I'm not interested' when they've already been told they're not getting it ;-)

How can you say job is unattractive esp at £3m plus a season !


because its already killed the careers of two young managers


lmao!

cardiff city didn't kill malkys career, malkys unprofessional conduct did

although he isn't banned from putting himself forward for other managerial jobs so it could be worse.....


The position has become poisonous under Tan whether you like it or not


Tan backed Ole to the hilt, you can't blame Tan for him failing !!!

How is that in anyway true? Malky killed his own career by being a racist c**t, who fucked up majorly in the transfer market and who may or may not have also been involved in fraudulent activity.

Ole has been given everything he could have asked for by Tan and CCFC but it has unfortunately not worked out for him.

poor results killed ole's career here, and poor transfers cost mackay his.

as for this manager 'turning us down', i suspect we only sounded hartley out and asked to speak to him, which he declined to do, and that is not turning down the job. its not uncommon to speak to several managers before deciding which to go for.

They can't fight to keep him though mate.

They literally have no money at all.

They regularly do charity events in the City of Dundee to raise money to keep the club going.

You can actually buy signed shirts and merchandise in their clubshop to order because they are so broke.

Was browing the forum to gauge what you guys were saying about Hartley and felt the need to respond to this.

Not sure where you get your information on Dundee from, but what you have posted just simply is not true.

We had fundraisers and things when we were in adminstration a few years ago - but your comment about charity events and selling signed shirts is just nonsense. We have no debt, are averaging our highest crowds in over a decade and are in the process of developing our own youth academy by our investors. We are not in a position where we need to sell our manager or players so your comments about us being "so broke" are ridiculous.

A very ill-informed and ignorant post.

Anyway good luck for the season, have been down to see you guys a couple of times because Kevin Mcnaughton is a family friend and have always enjoyed my trips to your city.

The Reason Hartley turned us down is that Tan only offered £250k a year! :sad7:
