The 2016-17 campaign delivered a tense fight for survival for Dundee FC, with The Dark Blues ultimately finishing a precarious 10th in the Scottish Premiership, narrowly avoiding the relegation play-off spot. Spearheading the attack was Canadian forward Marcus Haber, whose 8 crucial goals proved vital in the desperate battle to avoid the drop. The turbulent season was defined by inconsistency and a late-season managerial change that saw Neil McCann successfully steer the club to safety, ensuring their top-flight status was preserved for another season.
