Dundee have completed the signing of former Inverness midfielder Brian Kerr on a free transfer. The 28-year-old left the relegated club at the end of the season after a short-term deal. Kerr trained with his new team-mates for the first time on Monday as they began their pre-season regime. He is the sixth summer addition to the Dens Park club after Leigh Griffiths, Chris Casement, Richie Hart, Sean Higgins and Pat Clarke. Kerr began his career at Newcastle, going on loan to Coventry and Livingston, before landing a permanent deal at Motherwell in 2004. His appearances at Fir park were limited due to a nine-month lay-off with a cruciate knee ligament injury. In 2007, the player moved to Hibernian and was a regular under John Collins, but he fell out of favour with the manager's successor, Mixu Paatelainen, and his contract was terminated in September 2008. Looks to be a good signing for the club.

Today I done Cupar-Pitscottie-Peat Inn-Kinaldy Farm-St.Andrews-Guardbridge-Dairsie-Cupar. A total of 26.9 miles. It was very hot, ans the hill up from Pitscottie were tough going. But I enjoyed the challenge, and the views were first class, I stopped at Kinaldy farm when I was growing up we used to come here to stay with our Uncle Willie and Auntie Isobel. In the mid 70's. I stopped at St.Andrews for a drink as well, made good time in 2hrs 24 mins.

Dundee Sign Chris Caseman
As expected Dundee have completed the signing of defender Chris Casement this afternoon. The 21 year old right back or centre half joins up on a three year contract after being released by Ipswich Town. Hopefully more signing this week, and if so it will build up Jocky Scott's squad quite nicely. I will get my season ticket this week. More on the news from Dens from link below:
