I've heard so much about guys like John Duncan, Jocky Scott, Gordon Wallace, etc but they're just names because you never watched them play at Dens.

I watched a Youtube clip a while ago though of Billy Campbell and he was unbelievably good. Made me realise that Dundee used to play on a totally different level.

Must admit Campbell was one of my favourite players.

Oh I see. Got you.

What a fantastic signing Rab was. He oozed class from his very first game. I'm glad he made it to the top.

Not exactly the way I remember his first game mate! I remember him having a nightmare. Can vaguely remember him being very poor at dealing with crosses. After that though he was immense for us

Billy Campbell was a brilliant player, I was so annoyed when he went in a straight swap to Motherwell for Jimmy Wilson

Maybe I missed his debut then mate. I just remember being blown away the first time I saw him play. It's not often I think a new signing is destined to be an international but he was special at the start from what I remember.

First time I watched Rab play was the first time I realised what a huge influence a keeper can have on the team. Geddes,  Carson, Pageaud, etc were decent but Rab was something else.

I would agree , I remember thinking well he  was a waste of money , soon changed my mind though

We need goals so it would John Duncan for me.

Even the classy Johnnie D on the ground and in the air, would struggle with this lot imo.

That's why I've gone with Bomber (or Cammy F). 

Feck. Can I have Jim Steele as well?.

An on form John Brown would be a good addition to this team. Dig, ability and goal scoring threat. Wieghorst as well. Duffy when he signed for Knox was brilliant at the back after a few games. Bobby Wilson at right back. What a signing he was. Great defender and excellent on the overlap. Picking one for this side, probably Duffy.

I didn't really appreciate what Fraser brought to the team when I first started going to Dens. I just remember the fans loved the guy.

Bomber had a huge impact on big games. Am I right in thinking he was often missing with minor injuries?

He was a colossus. I remember the roar when he delivered a perfect crunching tackle at the start of a game against the likes of Sturrock or McGarvey to let them know they were in for a tough afternoon. Must have been a nightmare to play against.

Can vaguely remember an amazing piece of skill in " that " Hearts game where he flicked the ball over John Robertson and kept perfect control. Would love to see it again.

Billy Pirie was the best poacher in his day, not the quickest but knew where the goal was and rarely missed half chances
