Mark McGhee has revealed he went to a Dundee game to support James McPake – before taking his job as gaffer.
McGhee was named the Dens Park boss on Thursday, the day after McPake was emptied from the hot seat. He admits that long-time friend Gordon Strachan gave him a ‘leg up’ for the job in his role as Dundee’s technical director.
But he’s adamant the former Scotland boss WON’T have an influence on how he manages the team or Dundee’s recruitment while he’s in charge.
