Dundee turn to Bomber Brown

John Brown news

Dundee have appointed John Bomber Brown as their interim manager!

Brown will be in charge of the dark blues against Celtic less than a year after leading the doomed campaign to starve Charles Green out of Ibrox.

Barry Smith was sacked in midweek with the club sitting at the foot of the SPL with Brown seeing off competition from Billy Dodds, Gus MacPherson and Jimmy Calderwood for the job.

Brown’s only managerial experience was a non descript two year period in charge of Clyde that ended in April 2010 after leaving a coaching job at Ibrox.

Green’s Ibrox takeover last June thrust Brown back into the limelight forcing him to resign from the scouting job he held at Ibrox which helped identify Matt McKay, Juan Ortiz and Mervan Celik.

Green has surrendered,” Brown told  80,000 fans on the steps of Ibrox in July. “I think Peter Lawwell had a dream about keeping Rangers in the SPL, but only if he could make sure they would never have any chance of winning the title by giving them a points deduction for the next few seasons.

“That keeps the value of the SPL for Celtic and means they can maintain a big budget for players, so they can not only win the SPL, but also have a really good chance of getting into the Champions League groups for the next four years.

That would bring Celtic in almost £100million and all the while Rangers would have to pay SPL wages while being banned from Europe for the next three years and also having no chance of winning the title.

By also surrendering and agreeing to the SFA transfer embargo, Green will leave Rangers in with no players and Ally McCoist will actually face a fight to avoid relegation.

Brown added: “Right now I am putting in place the best legal team we can get, so that, we can do this in a proper corporate way, with supporters knowing that when they put money in to buy themselves a share in Rangers, their cash is safe.

My plan will put Rangers men in charge of Rangers. The type of people who will not surrender to Peter Lawwell and Celtic the way Green has surrendered to them.”

    The No Surrender message is Driven and Directed By a Religious Zealot,not to motivate a group of people trying to save their club,but by an individual who lacks intelligence and the oratory skills to make a point.This is a Bigot of the highest order,Mind you the order he is member of celebrate bigotry.I suspect that is why he got the job at Dundee.

    Barry Smith must think it’s a wind up!
    The owners must want “fast tracked” to Division 3!

  • williebhoy says:

    I can see quite a few players looking for the exit gate as soon as the transfer window opens. Dundee have really gone off the radar with this appointment. Doesn’t auger well for any long term strategy unless they think he can kick their way out of trouble.

    Sorry Dundee but you have just sealed your fate and could well struggle to get back next season. Panic must have set in at Dens, blind leading the blind.

    Always hated this guy. If you were playing for Dundee you would want out in July if this walloper is in charge. Lets beat them good and proper tomorrow. And let Neil have a go at Big Bomber Brown. 3-0 tomorrow. Hope the GB come out in good voice tomorrow. 1NL COYBIG

  • Why would Dundee give this Bigot a job He must have friends in hight places Who ware funny aprons

  • Tony B says:

    The northern huns are in danger of becoming as big a joke as their scuzzy southern counterparts with this appointment.
    Ra Bummer is undoubtedly a Class 1 Grade A Fanny,
    his ” Youse boat ra pies” speech on the steps of Aye Broke being incontrovertible evidence of same.
    Still, it’s giving all of us sane people a good laugh.
