Not getting backing from the club  on social media over the recent dross in the local rag about him but the club has done so Over Glen Kamara 

I read it slightly differently. I read that he hadn't had any backing full stop. DCT's offered Dundee Football Club an apology, which they accepted, DCT's then belatedly offered Jordon an apology after asking if he'd like one. As far as I can see Jordon Forster is the victim here. I've no idea why the club were offered an apology and why they felt the need to accept one. The player should've been contacted by the club to gauge his feelings and a public statement backing the player should've been issued. We've backed a former player on a separate issue but failed to back a current one.

I've got a hell of a lot of sympathy with our player over this and I hope he's alright. The club certainly haven't covered themselves in glory.

I am sure I read that the club had talked to the Tully about it and they and Jordon had received  an apology? Could be wrong though. If not its time Nelms grew some.

The club accepted an apology. Jordon was asked via twitter whether he would like one too. Shambles. Too little too late.

That will not help his mental state.

Exactly. On a topic relating to the players mental status too.

Does the forum have a Twitter ? Maybe a message of support could be sent from us as a collective

Totally agree with you m8 just can't believe the club haven't supported him. Or put out a statement to complain about dct

Not sure if your being serious or not but I haven't insulted him personally. 

His ability is allowed to be judged and questioned. 

I am a massive advocate of mental health but society has ruined the ability to judge peoples abilities without the mental health card being judged. 

Shocking tbh.

So he is immune from being judged on his ability now? 

I said he was slow. Which he is. 

Getting a bit ridiculous now.

You did, but then you used a derogatory term to describe him, and another player.

Ridiculous. 

 

Can't believe this is the route things are going down.

Your comments are ridiculous. I've called you young, naive and immature on a topic which was loosely related to this one. I firmly stand by that.

I won't reply to anything else from yourself mate. I have no issue with you personally and I'm sure you're a good guy who's just viewing things through the eyes of a 20yr+ individual. I find some of your views offensive though. I'm sorry if you feel like I've went to town on this but as I said it's nothing personal.

A 20yr plus individual. 

Not sure that matters tbh. That's the complete opposite of society these days. 

They say young people are snowflakes and the older generation is rock hard. 

I have my views on this, yes, which I'm entitled to but what I say is alot less offensive than stuff you read on here and you and others don't give it a 2nd look. 

You seem to target my views on things tbh. Even after I apologised for my comments that were maybe out of order. 

Foster is not a good footballer anymore. Not comparing him to anything, or insulting him as a person or anything. But he is done. To slow and tbh is a liability. 

By all accounts he is seen as a nice guy, which I'm not denying. But I'm allowed to judge him and discuss his ability.
