IainMorton Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I wasn’t too confident about this game but after reading some awful patter from the United fans, I hope we tear them a new one. 3-0 Morton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P475 Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Ok, so utd beat the Pars. They were piss poor though. A good team would have taken way more goals off us. I think Morton will hump them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Morton will hump them. That sort of patter will get you'ze relegated...... (Dundee United vs Dunfermline Athletic thread for this Pish, but as you bring it up here.......) United beat the Pars, accurate, however United were not piss poor. We can't have been piss poor because Dunfermline were not piss poor, and we won the game reasonably comfortably. The Pars were clearly instructed to press high and not give our players a second on the ball, and they did this with plenty of energy for pretty much 90 minutes, and some of their play I found surprisingly good, given their recent run in form. This hard work off the ball stifled a lot of our creativity, and well done to Dunfermile for that, they had clearly done their homework. United are not the finished article yet by any means, but we have not been piss poor since Inverness, during which time we have racked up 13 points out of a possible 15, only dropping the 2 points to an excellent tactical Brechin display in the second half (a game which should have been out of sight by half time). We are not Ra Sellick; we will lose games, (possibly on Saturday) but to say that Morton will hump us based on our performance aginast you is just a bit silly.

FifeArab Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I thought we’d lose the play off down there last season and we won so i’ll go with 2-1 United. Which means we’re gonna lose this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we were playing to our full ability we'd have beat you lot. "Youse" only won due to us being poor. Morton will hump you lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacArab Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 By your logic, United would win the league easily, as on paper, if our squad, which is viewed (by the bookies at least) as being superior to any of the others in the division) plays to it's full ability, we'll stroll the league. That's not how football works though, which is what makes it interesting. The way to win football matches is to be less poor than your opposition, and on Saturday we did this with aplomb. Next Saturday, we don't have to play our best, just less poor than Morton, and hopefully we can do this. I do not expect a humping , but will be happy to come on there and eat my words if your well thought out football philosophy turns out to be accurate.

He got what he wanted, which was a bite from me, and in taking the bait, I got the personal satisfaction of pointing out (yet again) that my team is better than his. That's what I call a win win.
