Scott is aiming to take Dundee back to the Scottish Premier League

Dundee manager Jocky Scott has been promised a bigger budget for next season's First Division campaign.

The Dens Park board have confirmed that an extra 25% on this year's money will be made available to Scott.

And director Calum Melville has pledged that the club will match pound for pound season tickets bought by fans.

For every full-price season ticket sold, directors will add the equivalent sum to transfer funds as Dundee aim to reach the Scottish Premier League.

Scott was appointed Dundee boss for the third time in October and his are currently fourth in the table, 12 points behind leaders St Johnstone with two rounds of fixtures remaining.

Dundee were relegated from the SPL in 2005 and finished runners-up in last season's First Division behind promotion winners Hamilton Accies.
