Excuse after excuse. We’ve just had 3 tough games, 2 tough games coming up, McCanns players, McCanns fault, Nelms culpable, McIntyre blameless, performances have improved.

Reality is Dundee have only beaten 1 team in the league this season before Christmas.

6 points needed in the next 2 easy home fixtures or McIntyre should be punted. Signing ex Ross County players in Jan won’t cut it with McIntyres limitations.

Livi away hours after getting the job, top of the league Hearts, Celtic, top of the league Killie away, Aberdeen away and Celtic again. Those are the games Macintyre has lost. How many of those did you honestly think this squad of players were capable of picking up points in and which manager is it you think would have done a better job? 

If we do win the next 2 games, will you then give Macintyre breathing space to get on with the job? Or will the game after that then just become a must win otherwise you’ll call for him to be sacked again?

He's done better than I expected so I don't think this is a conversation we need to have.

He's here until the end of the season. That's the reality.

Was intrigued when I saw a thread titled 'reality thread'.

Then I doubled up laughing when I saw who started it. Seriously folks this guy's at it, just don't react to him.

That's my take as well.

Reality -

We're the worst team in the league and have been all season (not by a mile but by a fraction behind St Mirren. The table never lies)

McCann assembled this team.

We were awful beyond belief under McCann hence we lost every time we turned up against anyone not called Hamilton this season

We're still pretty awful under McIntyre with McCann's team but not as awful as draws against Rangers, Hibs & St Mirren have shown (all improvements on McCann's results against the same 3 clubs)

There's been signs of improvement under McIntrye (settled XI until Saturday. 4 games unbeaten run. Come backs. More organised and better to watch etc)

We will be beaten by Aberdeen, Killie (this season) and Celtic under McCann/McIntyre/Pep/Zidane/Shankly etc as we are fkn miles off them in terms of quality/players/points on board etc.

Fully behind JM in this extremely difficult task he's taken on in turning round a shambles with only one difficult transfer window to do so in.

If we go down, he'll have played a part but it will not be his fault. Anyone would be struggling to turn round the results we were getting under McCann with the squad he left us after 3 transfer windows.

Absolute head scratcher seeing boys criticising a manager who has improved us slightly and is playing with several players who in the squad who aren't up to standard who he didn't sign.

There's your reality.

Merry Christmas.

In my opinion JM can only work with the players he has until the January transfer window opens. 

Neil McCann should hang his head in shame at the number of players he let leave Dens with no equivalent replacements. In McCann’s time as manager we have gone backwards and John Nelms should have sacked him immediately after the 3-0 defeat by Ayr United in the League Cup.

I was at that game and we were hopeless. If the game had lasted another ten minutes we could have been beaten 5 or 6 nil as Ayr United were scoring at will.

It is time for John Nelms who is Chief Executive of Dundee Football Club to state publically that FPS are giving the manager substantial funds for this transfer window to try to sort out the mess left behind by the previous manager and hopefully avoid relegation at the end of this season.

What will happen to wage demands and any transfer fees if the club announces it's making substantial funds available? That's why the board should definitely not publicly announce any such thing.

Even with a large pile of money it can be slim pickings in January even for clubs like Celtic and Rangers . McIntyre needs to work on what he has - if he’s a good coach , he will improve individuals .
