saintee in exile Posted December 25, 2023 Report Share Posted December 25, 2023 Thought they were toothless against QP the other night,really woeful up front. They have certainly got a fight on their hands given Raiths continuing good form Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smarmy Arab Posted December 28, 2023 Report Share Posted December 28, 2023 We have hit a real sticky spell, but I suspect RR will too at some point. So far we have lost a single league game, long way to go..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing Dundee's fondness for talking about imaginary new stadiums, I think I'd probably be swapping your "when" for a big "if". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would make sense. I'm not yet convinced this will materialise. In principle it makes all sorts of sense, sharing a stadium, indeed merging the clubs (take over really) very nearly happened in 1999ish, but Mr Marr's bottle crashed and he found a plan B. In the years before that redevelopment of Dens for a shared stadium was Jim McLean's favoured option, but Dee were such a car crash they could never get their act together.

chips Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 So United posted a £2.4m loss for 22/23 even AFTER bringing in £2.6m from transfer fees 😳 A fair lump of cash spent and still got relegated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the start of last season when they were playing in Europe I thought they'd made some strong signings and would possibly be challenging for third place. The fact that they spent all that money and couldn't even avoid finishing rock bottom is an eye-popping collapse. Amazed Jim Goodwin has held onto his job, too.

Cagey Posted January 13 Report Share Posted January 13 Lucky last night. Caley should have won. Caley ran out of steam . Should have used their subs but probably short on numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All looked peachie when Jack Ross signed along with McGrath, Middleton, Levitt, Fletcher et al. But went into a tailspin, and never recovered. I heard Zander was set to sign, but his agent (Former manager JMac) told him to wait for an offer from Stoke, that never appeared. United played hard ball and brought in an experienced, and expensive Aussie instead. It just did not work, not to replace him in January was arrant negligence and we have paid the price for not adequately covering a key position. This season we have lost 2 games, conceded only 10 goals, and have looked to part on league duty. Probably best we did not progress in the cups, we have a fragile confidence are in no condition to go to Aberdeen, or Edinburgh far less Glasgow. pretty confident we will win the championship, Holt, Docherty, Moult have been successful at this level, and we really needed players for this level. blueheaven 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Dunc comes over well, but has his work cut out up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's Middleton been like this season? Always thought he looked a potentially good player if he could get a settled run in the team somewhere.

Middleton has been pretty consistent, 12 assists, 3 goals (I think?) certainly ahead of our academy grads in terms of starts. As you say, like most wingers, needs a run in the team and a bit of confidence. blueheaven 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know most of the old Saints fans take out their angst on Fundee because of historical reasons but I cannae stand Utd. Big headed players and coaching staff who think they are erchie! Must be killing them getting beat from a "wee" team full of "industrial" footballers. Shame then that they get our best players like HH and Spoony when we could have made more use. I played park fitba with both Hegarty bros. Mind Paul came back and helped saints out, no idea where that flashy b Kevin ended up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johndb Posted April 8 Report Share Posted April 8 They've done well in the past like saints and Luggy was one of our better managers. Why worry about them, we have to sort our own game out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
