  1. I fear we will be 11th come the end of that first weekend and no faith this group can recover from that.
  2. Funnily enough this popped up today. Think it summarises your point perfectly:
  3. He ran up and down the middle of the pitch jumping in the air taking applause from the crowd.
  4. Guess we have an interest in these ones as well:
  5. Not only did McInnes know about our midfield shape but he said to the media days before the game he knew how we would play and also mentioned the players he was dropping for the game to deal with it! Just insane we just carried on into it. The manager assessment of the team, is that a damming report of all those that were on the bench? If he didn't want to replace those playing poorly then he must think the subs are even worse.
  6. It would be hosted as a Dundee home game and Saints have said they have made contingency for the ticketing of both teams.
  7. You were comfortable? 😅 I still feel the way we emphatically ended that game added to Davidson staying on to cause more damage. Could not believe people were applauding him when he did his solo lap of honour, unless they believed they were saying goodbye?
  8. Not like you to be so pessimistic 🤣 It would be a burn the club to the ground type situation if we finished bottom now.
  9. Football bleeding misery into two days this weekend 😢
  10. What are the dates for the play offs 🙈
  11. Ah the days when the taverns of Peebles were the number one source of in the know gossip. The glory days 😁
  12. No pressure now the top six has been decided.
  13. Hopefully the defence does something decent this season and helps Mitov get home with every single player of the year award!
  14. Some interesting stats, usually they are quite bleak!
  15. I think I read that Gordon is injured and expected back after the split.
  16. Unlikely it would seem: "There is precedent for top flight teams being fined over the state of their surfaces. Back in 2010, Motherwell were hit with a fine of £50,000 for the infamous Fir Park pitch, though it should be noted that was a largely sympathetic verdict from the SFA at the time who acknowledged they had recently invested heavily on undersoil heating and a new surface in a bid to improve it. £45,000 of that penalty was suspended and Leanne Dempster, Motherwell CEO at the time, praised it as a 'balanced and sensible approach.' Dundee don't have the same obvious defence case to make and, accounting for inflation in the 14 years since, it seems likely the Dens Park club will face a harsher punishment if they are found in breach of league regulations." Interesting views for Stuart Kettlewell, which I think ring true, Dundee spent money on players rather than the pitch: "We played here on August 2 in the first game of the season and I came away and said to everybody wait and see the problems you are going to have here at Dens Park over the course of a season because the game was almost called off on the first day. What that is in essence, and I feel so strongly on this, when you invest that money it comes out my player budget." https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/how-much-dundee-could-fined-32560417
  17. The article on the BBC was scant with details about when the disciplinary kicked off but it seems it was only after the 4th time for that Rangers game that was to be on sky! They should be docked points as they clearly invested in the squad rather than the pitch.
  18. "Rangers have accused Dundee of "negligence and unprofessionalism" after the sides' Scottish Premiership match was postponed for a second time because of a waterlogged pitch." 😁 Two birds with one stone, excellent work rain.
  19. Going from what was said in the January window I would assume the management team are going to look to push May out at the end of the season?
  20. What are the chances of the game v County being made our final game of the season?
  21. Chris Kane won and converted A penalty for Dunfermline v Patrick. And, of course, Taylor Stephen was at it again
