Dundee players 'very positive' about Pressley, says Shaughnessy
Joe Shaughnessy insists his former Dundee team-mates are "very positive" about working under Steven Pressley, despite the head coach's difficult start at Dens Park. Saturday's League Cup group defeat at Alloa was a second straight loss to lower-league opposition. Many fans were against the appointment of Pressley, who is now facing added pressure from the support after a challenging start to his reign. But centre-back Shaughnessy, who left Dens this summer to sign for Newcastle Jets in Australia, says the Dundee boss is making a good impression on the squad. "I've spoken to a few of the players and they are very positive about it all," the 33-year-old told BBC Sportsound. "They're enjoying working with him. He's trying to get his idea across. When I talk to Simon Murray and some of the other lads, they enjoy the training and they are being worked hard. "The fans jumped on him saying he's not going to win titles or whatever, but the players are enjoying what he's come in and started doing. "They are onside and trying to build towards something. Hopefully it happens sooner rather than later." Shaughnessy added that any talk of sacking Pressley based on the League Cup group results is "very harsh".

New Zealand's Ingham, Australian Pelekanos among Sabah's four new signings
KUALA LUMPUR: Sabah have beefed up their squad ahead of the 2025-26 M-League season with four new signings, led by New Zealand international Dane Ingham and Australian midfielder Dean Pelekanos. The quartet were unveiled on Sunday, just a day after the club confirmed the departure of 13 players, including long-serving captain Park Tae Su and Indonesian winger Saddil Ramdani. Joining Ingham and Pelekanos are locals Badrul Affendy and Maxsius Musa. Ingham, 26, is a defender with 12 caps for New Zealand and was part of the All Whites squad for the 2022 World Cup intercontinental playoff. He last featured for A-League side Newcastle Jets, where he made 59 appearances and scored three goals over three seasons. Pelekanos, 24, is a Sydney-born central midfielder who came through the Western Sydney Wanderers system. Known for his stamina and aggressive style, he is expected to add steel and composure to Sabah's engine room. "Welcome to the Land Below the Wind, Dane! Born and raised in Australia. From Newcastle Jets and representing the New Zealand national team. Give it up for our new defender, ready to give his all for Sabah," read a club post. Another post added: "Welcome to the Land Below the Wind, Dean! Sydney-born. Formerly from Western Sydney Wanderers. Midfield engine for Sabah. Say hello to our newest Rhino!" Sabah finished third in the Super League last season and reached the Malaysia Cup semi-finals.
