How do we see this going?

Hopefully we can continue after last week but Clyde could be buoyed by their last-minute equaliser last week.

As for the Dundee team, could be no change from last week if the trialists opt to stay:


If Davidson is fit, stick him on the bench in place of Mearns.

Rae said this morning “We can probably keep two of the three so there are decisions to be made over the next day or two" so i don't think they'll be trialists by Saturday, if they are going to sign they'll sign before that.

I'd keep Mearns on the bench regardless of if Davidson is fit, but apart from any last minute recoveries i think the side will be the same.

I'm confident we can keep our feel good factor up after last weekend and get a win at Dens.

Apparently Mearns played really well last night, so I dont think AR will risk Davidson just yet.

Apart from that, if the trialists are still here, I would say the same team. Although, Torres did well as well against Violet, his fitness seems to be a problem, so I dont think he will get ahead of Pozniak.

Looking forward to this one. We seem to have a not bad record at Dens since Dundee came down. Anyway I'd expect us to line up something like.



Subs: Cherrie, Ohnesorge, Roddy MacLennan, Clarke, McSwegan.



1-1.

Agree with the team but would rather have Daquin on the bench. Daquin didn't impress against Alloa or Ross County and in the pre-season games that he came off the bench in he gave 5 minutes work and stopped. I don't rate Daquin at all. I seen Pozniak against Ross County and he didn't get in the game much, I wasn't at the game last night but from some reports is seems Torres would be the better option.

Anyway, I reckon we'll win this one. 3-1 Dundee.

We should win this one but I'm not going to make any predictions.

Can probably see Rae bringing Torres off the bench to see how he would cope at this level.

That's not going to happen, he has been released.

No place for Kiko

Yup sure has http://www.eveningtelegraph.co.uk/output/2...11762790t0.shtm

It'll be interesting to see who Brown picks, as Roddy MacLennan and McSwegan both played well last night. Wilson is suspended and McCusker and Waddell aren't fit, not sure if McGregor will have recovered from his injury either.

Either:

Hutton
Gibson Brown Higgins Ohnesorge
Roddy Ruari Kettlewell McLaren
McSwegan Gemmill

OR

Hutton
Gibson Brown Higgins
Roddy Ruari Kettlewell Trouten McLaren
McSwegan Gemmill

subs: Clarke, McKay, McGowan, Ohnesorge/Trouten and Cherrie.

We have quite a good record at Dens, but we are quite unpredictable at the moment.

Is Lauchlan fit for Dundee?

If so, Brown'll have McKay up front with Gemmill. I don't think big Jim could cope with their pace.

Unlucky......he's injured.

Dangnammit!

There goes our only hope of beating you.

Not really, any team who plays against Rab Douglas in goal have always got a chance of scoring a few, he is a total bombscare.

2-1 Clyde.

It's evident you didn't bother to read about our game on Saturday.

Rab Douglas is one of the best keeper's in this league and could probably still do a job in the SPL. Rab, Gallacher and Main are the best three goalkeeper's in the SFL. He was amazing on Saturday, AMAZING and even with the defence looking vulnerable at times (first half especially) I thought we'd still keep a clean sheet because of Rab - he was immense.

I would go with that. Would be happy with a draw.

FUXAKE!!!

It's the 'Going into Administration' Six pointer!

Who the f**k do I want to lose more?

Come on the .... no, I can't do it.

I suppose whilst they are all in the one place I should be hoping for a suicide bomber?

Hi MR R

I would've thought that last night would put our entire support off playing 352 - clearly not

I'd go with:

Hutton
Gibson Brown Higgins Ohnesorge
Ro. McLennan McGregor Trouten Kettlewell McLaren
Gemmill

Ruari in for McGregor if he's still injured. I fancy us to nick a point on Saturday.

who Mr Chicken?

Lauchlan wouldn't even be able to cope with Gary McSwegan's pace.

Not too sure about Trouten in the middle of the park.

Will Clyde be bringing their usual 'busload' or will you maybe have a half decent support through on Saturday?

Zimmer Vs Zimmer

I honestly not sure what I'd play in this one.

I'd go for a back 4, but Ohnesorge has made some concerning slip ups.
I want to give Roddy a game, but who do you drop? Problem solves itself if McGregor can't make it though.

I know one thing for certain, I'd start McSwegan in place of Gemmill. While Gemmill is energetic and skilful, but I don't see him scoring. I mean his record from last season was well... horrific.

Glad its not down to me

He had his best game in a Clyde shirt when playing in the middle against Annan when he was deployed behind the front two in the second half. I'd say he'd be pretty good there.


I don't know. As it's the first away competitive game this season, I think there should be a fair amount.

Going back to Dens for the first time since Imrie had the cross land over your 'keeper. The game ended 1-0. Big Tam Brighton ran Boaby Mann ragged that day!

Back in the good ol' days...

Also, Ohnesorge had a bout of food poisoning on Friday night. He really shouldn't have played at all on Saturday, according to Brown.

History lessson gemmill actually scored 8 goals last season, he played in a crap team that were relegated, and missed about 12 games due to injury not a bad return after all.

The website said 6, and I can't be arsed checking it up.

I remember when Paul Brownlie was our top scorer (in division 2 when we finished 8th) with about 7/8 goals? Did he do well in division 1 when Arbroath came up?

That Roddy MacLennan looks ready to snap! He could struggle with the physical side of things in this league.

The thing you notice straight away about Trouten when he plays in the middle is his ability to find space. He's got a cracking first touch and goal scoring ability, so I think he'll work well in there.

yeah your correct the website did say 6, but he scored a double against peterhead to make it 8. Been a gemmill follower since he was a boy, glad he is at clyde now should do a job.

Ah! I missed the Annan game due to being abroad so I wouldn't have known. Thanks for clearing that up

With the fact the Dundee stewards in the away end prevent us from using our mobile phone, that's why we always bring a pish support up.

Don't you know it's illegal to use camera's without permission from the club

That maybe true if anyone could catch him.

I heard it was his Dad that is paying part of his wage as we couldnt afford to sign him.

Goals in that order gents

Can't really see past a Dundee win so ill go 2-0

unless a miracle happens and either Bob Davidson,Gary Mackenzie,Jim Lauchlan,Craig Mckeown,Darren Young or Colin Cameron are back we will line up......

4-1

When was the last time we played at Dens Park on a Saturday? We always seem to get punted to a Sunday or midweek so sod that. Haven't been up there since Dundee got relegated in fact and last night's performance against QP didn't exactly having me desperate to change that statistic.

I'll take a point now and that's probably how Brown will set us up. Not too optimistic but it's not impossible.

Keep on taking the 'happy tablets'.

Let's see!

We've had five home games in two weeks, which has put some wallets under a bit of pressure.

We've not played at all well in our three competetive games.

The general "ambience" at Dens is not welcoming.



Hmm.... don't really anticipate any more than our "usual busload"!


As for the game, I can't see past a Dundee win, unless the pieces of the jigsaw finally fit together on Saturday.



(The last time I felt this way was just before our 4-1 win )

OOOPS same as County then.

Whats the news on MacKenzie and Cameron?

3 ZIP The Dee................bombscare my arse

I can't imagine too many people will want to pay £17 and listen to bigoted songs coming from the home end for 90 minutes.

Pwik alert ...........Miles/ Mr Bob

Songs from the home end...You are joking right?

That sounds like a wonderful afternoon for me. Bit of bigotry and pump the weegie one shoes ....nice one and cheap at the price..

Oh you bitter child.....................nice pic of yer midfield by the way wee man ....annnat

Funnily enough it was the last time you played at Dens Park, period.
