Gordon Chisholm had the hard task today in informing 15 members of the playing staff that they are no longer required at Dens Park. Derek Soutar, Tony Bullock, Eddie Malone, Jim Lauchlan, David Cowan, Gary MacKenzie, Colin Cameron, Darren Young and Bob Malcolm are all out of contract and were informed they would not be getting new ones. Loanees Ryan O'Leary, Andrew Shinnie and Ben Hutchinson have been told they can go back to their parent clubs, whilst Richie Hart, Maros Klimpl, Brian Kerr, Chris Casement and Brian Deasley have been told they can all find new clubs. Speaking to DFC Online, Gordon Chisholm admitted it was a difficult job in telling the players:
"It's been a difficult day, there are good pros amongst the guys who I've had to let go, but this place needs change if we are going to get to where we want to be."
"It's really not a nice thing to do and I'd like to thank them for their efforts in Dundee's colours."
