DENS UNDER CONSTRUCTION - #1

Got a batch of photos showing the new Stands at Dens being constructed around the new millennium. Here we see the flattened area where the old Provie Road enclosure was, and it's replacement being pieced together.

ALAN COUSIN - A DECADE A DEE

Alan Cousin was at Dens from 1955 to 1965, and as a consequence, has him in Dundee's top 10 longest serving players of all time with a whopping 384 appearances. Being a striker, he has also banged in rather a lot of goals in his time - 141 to be precise - the club's 4th highest scorer. He was the Dees top scorer 3 seasons on the trot - 1957/58 - 1958/59 - 1959/60. The era he played saw him win the Scottish League title in 1962 and take part in the following famous European Cup run. In 1959 he represented Scotland twice at international level.
The above photo was taken in his final year with Dundee in 1965.
