Surprised by it. Looked solid in the other games. Sometimes everything comes up gold for the other team and you just get pumped (ie us vs Falkirk) and that's certainly what's happened tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigOutYourSoul Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 How did you lot find a keeper worse than ours?As much as he’s hated on here I don’t think Hamilton really done much wrong tonight. Decent interview from McPake who’s clearly hurting. He also needs to go back to see his hair transplant consultant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EpicMike Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 (edited) Brilliant game for a neutral, but since I'm not a neutral, gonna get steaming now. But first... When that United attack shows up like they did today, they'll give a hiding to most teams in the Championship, they'll punish any mistakes and pounce on any piece of good luck. Today also showed they're not completely dependant on Shankland. Despite the score, Dundee were not completely outclassed. Controlled their own half in midfield and created chances, a mix of bad luck and poor defending against a very dangerous attack was their undoing. Set pieces are difference makers at this level. United looked dangerous (and scored) from theirs, Dundee did not. This has to change. I like Forster believe it or not, he's a tough as nails blood and thunder defender who throws himself in to everything but after that performance he needs a spell on the bench. Who ever threw their scarf on the pitch can f**k off. Edited August 30, 2019 by EpicMike 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Throwing under the bus" is a term generally used when a manager tries to deflect from his own deficiencies and blame the players. McPake was absolutely correct to say the defending was shite because, well, it was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it wasn't 5-0 when it was 0-zzzzzzzzzzzz Because the game had been mentioned a few times in this thread as you will have read. Off you pop to bed now. You'll need to be up early for your coal round in the morning. 19 minutes ago, 7-2 said: Calm down pal you follow St Johnstone who are crap right now. Was just pointing out that's it's pretty irrelevant on a Dundee Derby thread & no one in Dundee gives a crap if you want to talk about the game post it on the actual thread . I work in a four star hotel you absolute Muppet is the reason that you are on the Dundee Derby thread is cause you want to know what a proper local derby is all about? I'm just here to see the meltdowns Nevermind I'm off to enjoy my Chinese ain't got time for people from Perth. Enjoy watching St Johnstone play dire football against Kilmarnock tomorrow that should be fun 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Jaffo Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Shankland could’ve sat tonight out and Dundee Utd would still have ran riot. I thought he was pretty anonymous or is that how he’s been this season and still pops up with a goal? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 This has certainly been coming. The first half-decent team we've played that's actually played like a half-decent team and we're steamrollered. Play-off at best for us now. Although I'm not sure I'd even fancy us in that against the League One teams. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdyteejay Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 I’ve got to congratulate your miserly defence for a sterling performance tonight. I can understand now why you guys have gone on about how few goals you’ve conceded. Well done and as you say thank you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
