Fun fact, Daley Thompson's Ma was from Lochee.

Leigh Griffiths has entered the chat.

Correct.

I really don't know how to explain this any clearer. We both have exactly the same Major honours, the only measurement of success.

Of course he isn't. I get a Yorkie Rasin and Biscuit egg.

Apparently he lived there for a bit.

....and the 3 years he will have left on his Aberdeen one.

He is right, Jim Clark does have a statue near Cupar.

Here he is standing next to some small chap...

Why am I the only person to recognise Tom Stoltman in their top 10? Not a gripe just curious. Crowned the World's strongest man two years running and Britain's strongest man for 3 years running. That's got to count for something?

It was initially to do with comparing success of Dundee and United. Kilmarnock are level with both on that front. But some diddy Morten fan derailed it to 'bigger'. If I told you I was 115 would you believe me? I'm 43 and, apart from a few Championships, I've never seen Dundee win anything. Although there are others on here like @Eednud and @Wee jeemie who did see the top league win. Just because I didn't witness it, doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Are you saying that you don't recognise Kilmarnock's top league win?

Thank you, I will take this as a compliment!

10. Thank you.

Sure, why don't we use the last 10 years? Oh because Kilmarnock have won absolutely nothing in that time period. It's all selective to suit narrative.

Ah the Perth chat with time limits. So it depends your age on how you determine how big a club are? Gotcha. "They’ve spent most of the last two decades in the Championship/First Division" I understand you want to have a pop with it being your big derby week, but stop telling lies min.

Might be developing a lactose intolerance.

OK, why don't we just go back as far as 28-March-2023? Dundee - 1 Promotion. United - 1 Relegation. See what I mean? It’s ridiculous to set a time limit as if nothing before has ever happened.

No, as explained before, records don't have a time limit.

Yeah, she popped in to my head today too.

Yet to hear an argument that they are. Because there isn't one.

It's when you start moaning about how cold it is, is when your body starts to become old......oh.

Dundee have exactly the same amount of major honours as United, including the top league as you point out. Therefore are not more successful than us. Two of your reasons is that they have made more money in out going transfer and have a slightly higher match day attendance? Fairly clutching there chief. With Dens highest attendance being 43,000 and Tannadump's being 28,000, that probably evens your flying Unicorn stats out. Who hasn't beaten Barca? In fact Dundee were the first club from outside Spain to beat both Barcelona and Real Madrid at their home grounds. We have also got a perfect home record against AC Milan, but they are shite of course. "I'm just cherry picking facts here but it's hard to find an argument that Dundee FC can better that." We have won 344 more league games than United. But I won't use this fact as I see as as pretty equal over history, as these records will never change or have a time limit on.

Fixed it now, ta.
