Busy day for Dundee FC
Dundee sign three players for next season and beyond for two of them:
Jon McCracken sign a two year contract after his spell at Norwich City came to a end. Well known to DFC fans due to his two loans spells last season. Jon will wear No 1 next season and is a great signing for the club.
Defender Clark Robertson has signed a two year deal after leaving Israeli side MS Ashdod after his deal finished. Clark previously worked with Docherty at Aberdeen where he made 68 appearances, scoring three goals.
After Aberdeen he moved to Blackpool where he spent three seasons and was a regular in their side, he then moved to Championship side Rotherham United where he also spent three seasons. It was then onto Portsmouth for two seasons before a move to Israel with MS Ashdod where he spent last season. A good signing and will help our defence to be stronger.
Striker Seb Palmer-Houlden on a season-long loan deal from Bristol City. He played on loan at Newport County and done well, playing 42 games and scoring 9 goals. He works hard and has pace which will add to our attacking options for the coming season.

Dundee 1, Kilmarnock 1, Dens Park, cinch Premiership, 18th May 2024
Dundee made two changes to their team when Aaron Donnelly and Josh Mulligan came in for Ryan Astley and Malachi Boateng who were on the bench.
The game started slowly and both teams stuggled in the first 20 minutes. From a poor corner Kilmarnock broke up the park and scored with a simple goal. Dundee continuted to struggle giving the ball away too much in midfield.
Dundee scored on 37 minutes when Scott Tiffoney took a long ball in his stride to race clear on the right. He sent a low pass across goal for Luke McCowan to smash the equaliser past Will Dennis. The assistant’s flag went up for offside against Tiffoney but after a VAR review the goal was correctly allowed. Tiffoney timed his run perfectly and the video evidence showed he was onside.
It took two minutes to confirm the goal which why l'm not a big fan of VAR at the moment.
Killie looked the more dangerous team until half time.
Dara Costelloe replaced Josh Mulligan at half time. Dundee did have a brighter start than in the first half but soon it was Kilmarnock who were creating more danger. Murray shot from the angle of the penalty area. Jon McCracken would have dealt with the shot but Marley Watkins applied the slightest of touches with his head to divert the ball against the bar.
Killie hit the bar again and McGhee headed it clear for another corner to Kilmarnock.
At least Dundee stepped up their game and were the better side in the last 30 minutes. Curtis Main and Malachi Boateng came on for Amadou Bakayo and Mo Sylla.
Kilmarnock werereduced to ten men when Deas was sent off for a silly tackle. Dundee had a great chance to win the game after Costello was fouled in the box, up stepped Luke McCowan and put the ball well wide of the goal.
Dundee kept going to the end and had efforts which were not too far away.
In the end it was a typitcal end of season game and both clubs have had a great season. Both teams were able to salute their fans in a nice sunny day.
