Docherty on Collum praise, 'relishing' Ibrox trip & Levein shockpublished at 17:28 18 September 2024

Dundee manager Tony Docherty has been speaking to the media prior to his side's League Cup quarter-final with Rangers on Saturday.
Here are the key lines:
Docherty says Saturday's defeat at Ross County "was disappointing" but "we've moved on" and "put it behind us".
He adds that his side are "a good, good team that had a bad day" in Dingwall.
Docherty said he would like to "applaud" Scottish FA head of referees Willie Collum for contacting him to discuss an incorrect decision not to award his side a penalty in Saturday's loss.
Dundee will face a "real, real top opponent" in Rangers, says Docherty, who adds that his team "will relish" the occasion.
He says securing progression to a Hampden semi-final would mean "everything you can imagine" and his players "will be doing everything" to give "a great reward to the fans".
Docherty adds that he was "surprised" to learn Craig Levein had been sacked by St Johnstone and confirmed he has reached out to the former Scotland manager.
