The first Inductee into the Hall of Fame was William “Plum” Longair who served the club for 33 years, captaining the side in its first ever match in 1893 against Rangers at West Craigie Park. He went on to make over 100 appearances and brought international recognition to Dundee by becoming its first ever-international player when capped against Wa...
The next entry into the Hall of Fame was Doug Cowie who played 446 games for the club in a 16-year spell; a club record. The highlight of his career came when Dundee won the League Cup in successive seasons against Rangers and Kilmarnock in 1951 and 1952. The winner’s medals were overdue after Dundee and Doug sadly lost the League title on the last...
The first ever International Award was given to Claudio Caniggia whose arrival in the City of Discovery in many ways mirrored that of Billy Steel fifty years previously. Both arrivals stunned the Scottish football scene and brought massive media attention and while both arrived with a reputation as controversial characters, they were quickly taken ...
Caniggia’s captain Barry Smith was next into the Hall of Fame. Few would have imagined that when Barry arrived at Dens in 1995 as part of the deal which saw Morton Wieghorst move to Celtic, that the club would be welcoming a man who would go on to be one of the finest captains in the clubs history. Barry’s time at Dens spanned over 11 years and as ...
In September 1950 the next entrant of the Dundee Hall of Fame had developed into one of the first football superstars with 17 Scottish caps to his name and since his wonder goal for Great Britain against the Rest of the World in 1947, he was regarded as one of the best inside forwards in the world. George Anderson wanted the best for Dundee and in ...
Jocky Scott’s place in the Club’s Hall of Fame was never in doubt after a 45-year connection with the Club after arriving as a 16 year old in 1964 and made his debut in a 6-0 win over Motherwell at Dens. Two weeks later he scored the first of his many career goals for The Dee with his double putting Dundee on the way to a 4-1 derby win at Tannadice...
There have been some great forwards in Dundee’s history but none have had a strike rate to match Alan Gilzean, the Coupar Angus born hit-man delivering 169 goals in 190 top-flight competitive appearances in the club’s colours. He holds almost every club goalscoring record – most career goals, most goals in a season, European top scorer, most hat-tr...
The inaugural Hall of Fame Dinner came to a fitting close with the final Legends Award going to whom Dundee supporters simply called Mr Dundee – Bobby Cox. He was born overlooking Dens Park and was educated at nearby SS Peter and Paul then St. Johns,signing for Dundee in 1955 and a year later after only four reserve games he was given his debut at ...
The second recipient of the Heritage Award was Bob Shankly, manager of what many regard as the greatest team in the club’s history. He managed Dundee to their one (and only) League Championship in 1962 then into the European Cup beating the famous names of Cologne, Sporting Lisbon and Anderlecht before falling at the semi-final stage against Italia...
The International Award went to Giorgi Nemsadze, a player who had a nomadic existence in Europe before arriving at Dens in 2000. His ability was without question as he had almost 50 caps for his country but as part of the Tayzurri he had his longest stay at any club in his career and that stability brought the best out of him. The man with the danc...
