Dee without seven Dundee manager Gordon Chisholm is asking his players to put the financial troubles at the club to one side and put on a show for the larger than normal crowd that will attend for the visit of Morton. The Dark Blues have up to seven players missing with Eric Paton, Rhys Weston, Dominic Shimmin, Charlie Grant and Mickael Antoine-Curier ruled out through injury, with Milan Musin and David Witteveen doubtful Chisholm said, "It was a difficult week and of course it is not very pleasant to tell the boys that their wages will not be getting paid until next week. I have asked the players to get the win that will lift everyone's spirits and I am sure they will go out and show they have a great appetite for the game." Morton's midfield options have been reduced after Falkirk and Hibs midfielder Patrick Cregg, who played as a trialist for the Greenock men last week, turned down the chance to sign permanently. The Cappielow engine room is further reduced with the absence of the injured trio of Carlo Monti, ex-Dunfermline player Graeme Holmes and Frenchman Fouad Bachirou, however defender David MacGregor is available after injury. Manager Allan Moore is telling his players not to be affected by the issues at Dens Park saying, "I am aware that their may be a bigger than normal crowd but my guys have just to get on with their job and go about things correctly. A win puts us level with Dundee and that has to be our aim."
