Who is being linked for the managers Job and who is likely to get the managers job? Will we see Archie Knox? Jim Duffy? Ketsbia? or Sombody Else?

Former player and Manager Jim Duffy has been tipped as the favourite to take over from Ivano this week.

Jim Duffy is still on holiday and is meant to be coming back to Scotland within the next 24 hours to talk with Jimmy and Peter Marr.

There are a lot of Dundee fans who dont want to see Jim Duffy since Jim Duffy has walked out on us in the past and the exact same could possibly happen again. But Jim Duffy did get us to the cup final in 1995 and if he has high expectations for Dundee then i say Dundee should give him his chance.

If Jim Duffy does take over it is expected that Dundee fans Favourite Temuri Ketsbaia will be his assistant manager. I would love to see Temuri as an Assistant manager which would make the players try hard from him and i would hate to get on the wrong side of Temuri's temper.

This would possibly also have future stars like Zura Khizanvilli stay at dens plus other future stars from Georgia wanting to join us.

Georgi Nemsdaze had this to say "I spoke to Temuri yesterday and I think the club want him to be the second manager.

"But it's difficult for Temuri because he is still very young to be in charge.

"Temuri must learn from an experienced manager then in a few years maybe he can be a great manager himself."

There is also some more news which has been around for a while that Parguay coach Francisco Ocampo is in the line for a Job at dens in a Director role or to maybe buy the shares from the Marrs to become Chairman of Dundee.

There has also been news of Former Southampton goalkeeper and current Crotia Assistant manager Ivan Katalinic is currently also being linked with post as Manager along with Former Scotland Assistant Archi Knox.
