Mark McGhee promises to go in the SCUD if Dundee beat St Johnstone

Dundee boss Mark McGhee has been challenged by his Dark Blues stars to go naked for a week if they defeat St Johnstone.

It's must-win for the Dens Park side as they aim to cut the gap to the Saints to just two points in Saturday's mammoth encounter.

McGhee is in the zone and he revealed earlier this week he's going cold and hungry in the search for an edge ahead of the relegation scrap.

But the 64-year-old has grand plans if Dundee land a signature result in their quest to remain in the Scottish Premiership.

He said: "Some people might understand what I was trying to do and other people think it's funny.

"The boys made me promise that if we beat St Johnstone then I've got to go naked for a week, which is not going to help anyone.

"You've just got to do something.

"You've got to do something to psychologically remind yourself and put yourself under a bit of pressure because there's a big game coming.

"I think the players understand the message that I'm trying to give."
