Ludo*1 Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Big fixture for both clubs. I know they got pumped last night, but has there been any sort of resurgence under McPherson? Legzdins has now kept more clean sheets in the league than Jack Hamilton this season. We need to win this to keep the pressure on Raith. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Trips to Dunfermline and Inverness to come after this, so I think it's absolutely must win for Dundee to have a chance of overtaking Raith. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to win this to keep the pressure on Raith. Well, we do actually look like a football team now whereas we weren't even that organised under Hopkin and McElhone. The problem is that we look like a terrible one, and that isn't going to change when you don't have 11 players good enough for the division. There's really no chance of a result here barring a classic McPake brainfart that sees him change Dundee's team to some unworkable nonsense that hands us the initiative. We'll set up with a back three and attempt to shitfest a 0-0, maybe threaten from set-pieces occasionally, but we'll have centre backs failing to pick anyone up from a cross into the box at some point and that'll be us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely this. An absolute minimum of 5 points from those 9 needed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Khaki Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 I think 11 points from our last 5, including a win over Raith at Dens would probably squeak 2nd place, but yes, ideally you want to be going into the playoffs all guns blazing. Huge end to the season. After Saturday we play the teams currently in 4th, 5th, 2nd, and 6th in the table. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikingTON Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Torn between 'shitfest L with an inevitable 85th minute winner from Afolabi or generic 3-0 pumping L' for this fixture. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossBFaeDundee Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 This is our chance to win four consecutive league games for the first time since October 2013, which would be pretty cool ngl. We'll be wearing our "majestic" golden shirts, so here's hoping they're not cursed. Let's not Dundee this one, lads. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately lads, just like near the end of last season he's found a team which works and when he does that he's loathed to change it for any reason. You'll have to do the work on the pitch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Girth Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 McPake (dare I say it) seems to have found his ideal line up. However, Morten are fighting for their lives... We should be able to beat them mind. 3-1 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dundee-FC92 Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 I honestly struggle to take Morten seriously since the 10 -2 match fixing scandal. Wonder how much Imrie pocketed for that. Anyway, if it's been rather miserable being a Dee since that promotion christ only knows what it's been like to follow such a heartless and moraless wee club. Thankfully, this is usually our easiest three points of the season at Dens. Barring a McPake moment of madness in squad choice we'll be winning this and further adding to the Morten relegation cause. I'll be sure to raise a glass to that. Thank you. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spikethedee Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Are games going ahead as usual this weekend?

The cricket went ahead today with a minute’s silence and players wearing black armbands. Plan is for English Premiership to do the same. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/56692293 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
