Dundee FC blasted referee Alan Newlands after the official disallowed a late winner for the Dark Blues in their 1-1 draw with Morton.

Alongside Anderson, McGowan has recovered from a costly error in Dundee’s 3-1 defeat against Ayr United last month. His performances since selling the jerseys for Mark McKenzie’s opener that day speak volumes about his character and quality.    As a consequence, McPake has been able to utilise his forward-thinking 4-4-2 with two out-and-out wingers in the form of Paul McMullan – 10 assists and counting – and Declan McDaid. Although Danny Mullen is not averse to dropping back and aidi...

Dundee’s Declan McDaid has scored once this season, away to Alloa in November. He said: “I am buzzing to be back in and helping the boys. Hopefully I can stay there now. “It was a bit of a strange time as obviously I thought I was going out on loan. “My confidence had fallen and I wasn’t playing as well as I should have been.
