The Old Tolbooth Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 On 11/04/2021 at 23:14, The White Cockade said: You do realise that the Dundee fans had no say in last season’s vote and anyway most of the comments I read were pretty reasonable Short memory, or you don't read very much social media, their fans were mocking us at every opportunity, along with Dundee United fans, they had a mini love in at the expense of ourselves at one point, not to mention that every time we play them they remind us of the only trophy they've ever won in recent times, the Albert Kidd cup, and their love in with Hibs is vomit inducing too, they're a pissant, paltry, stinking cesspit of a midden type of club, and if anything bad happens to them, I'll raise a glass! If ICT can keep up their good form with hopefully a little help from us, then one of Scumdee, Rat Rovers, or Scumfermline will be losing out, and I can live with that, but out of that lot my choice would be the spoon burners.

Still struggling to comprehend someone presumably from Edinburgh saying anywhere else is like turning your watch back 40 years. One look at the waterfront in Dundee and Edinburgh literally looks medieval. However, this isn't about cities its about a football club riddled with absolute diddys who's fans are arseholes.

Actually, you might be onto something In all fairness, it gets a horrific reputation and it really isn't that bad. Have loved living up here. Whitfield has totally changed. I lived there from the ages of about 13-18 which was 15-20 years ago and even since then it is totally different. The shops are gone and new HS and new houses put up everywhere. Fintry and Downfield havent changed but don't really have a bad rep. More Kirkton and Hilltown that i'd say were bad areas tbh but the playground slagging of places people live and are from is pretty poor like. I was born in Edinburgh, then moved to Glenrothes, then have lived in Dundee since I was 11 with a 2 year stay roughly in Edinburgh in between. Dundee has definitely changed even since I moved here and it's only getting better still with the developments to the waterfront, new Esports arena getting built etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's still an absolute shithole and you only realise how big a shithole it is when you've left. Junkies everywhere. It's absolutely filthy, rubbish everywhere, bushes overgrown and practically over pavements. The buildings are falling to pieces. The majority of folk live in pre-1919 Tenements or pre fabs which are falling to bits. Just because they've updated the front does not mean it's much better. It's not, the front is nice but it's like putting lipstick on a pig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee has definitely changed even since I moved here and it's only getting better still with the developments to the waterfront, new Esports arena getting built etc. I stayed in Coldside, and it was a bit rough but I loved staying there before moving more into the Centre. Worked in a bookies in Charleston, Lochee and out toward Downfield for the best part of 6 years so I've seen the worst those areas have to offer and it still didn't put me off. I think there is a difference having a laugh about it as someone who lives here, rather than someone slagging it who's never even set foot in half of the places. 13 minutes ago, Cruyff said: I stay in Dundee from 2018 until about October 2020.

The West End is great, and it's the fact that it feels more like a Big Town, rather than a Busy City is quite appealing. I like it, and I'll be sad to leave.

No Idle Talk Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 I have an ingrained dislike for Dundee ever since that fateful day in 1986. The e-mail fiasco exacerbated that feeling. I have to say it would be better for Scottish Football to have them in the top division rather than clubs like Hamilton or Ross County being there but if Dundee aren't good enough to win promotion then that's their problem. I certainly won't be feeling sorry for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
