Top tier McMullan today too. The guy next to me kept saying "I think McMullan might do something today" and my reply was "We spent about 4 years saying that till we punted him".

Aye, McMullan looked like the same guy as we had but without decent players around him feeding him the ball he had to keep dropping deep to pick it up thirty yards from his own goal. Pointless and shite. Did he finish the game? I don't recall him touching the ball after about 50 minutes.

So many missed chances by Griff today. Two missed from six yards out and one cleared off the line.

Adam looks a bit daft now!

 

 

overall that was a quality game. If you want to watch football the quality of Bayern or whatever that isn’t for you, but it was end to end stuff, some proper challenges and a great atmosphere. Really enjoyed that. That Mulgrew tackle at the end was amazing. United’s defending was great

This is the worst take ever on this site.  That game was awful.

When he did get on the ball, maybe except once, he either took a heavy touch and lost it or dribbled and over ran it into a United player. 

He wasn't in the game enough to be considered involved enough to be shite imo. 

Absolutely standard.

 

Eta and his free kicks are still shite too.

Prediction time. I wouldn’t normally go balls out but I can see no other result than the DB’s winning by at least 2 and it really wouldn’t surprise if we scored 4 or 5. In Griffiths and Cummings we have 2 quality, prolific strikers. McMullan is in the form of his life, in the top 2/3 wingers in the country (certainly outshone Boyle when we played Hibs) and he will want to show the DABs what they chucked away. Marshall is brilliant going forward and provides the danger from wide left. We have McGhee (will be the best player on the park IMO), Adam and Anderson who all love a goal from midfield. Fontaine and Ashcroft have scored more from corners than any CH pairing we have ever had. Together McGhee and Byrne do not get overrun in midfield, very solid and in the case of Sean Byrne downright nasty. Since the Legend came in our biggest weakness, the defence and GK in particular, have massively improved. COVID and injuries have prevented us being at full strength all season, tomorrow we will be and these cuntos are getting a hiding.
ETA - dead ball situations - Leigh ‘The Dee’ Griffiths and Charlie Adam?? Also our team is Derryied out of its nut. f**k the DABS.

This gets better every time I read it.

🍻 cheers Fifespud

At what? 

Perth was full of folk in kilts as I drove through and I've no idea why. 

Women's team won 2-0 against Hungary in their WC qualifiers. Faero Islands Tuesday night at Hampden and the eldest is going through with her team so she's buzzing.

I think my muckers daughter is in the same team (so she is but)! 

There's 3 u11s atm, my eldest is in the Tangerines which is the middle skilled group but they'll soon be the top dawgs as the better group all go up to u13s at Christmas. 

They've all came on a lot recently their first game was a double digit to nil pumping from Dryburgh 😨 they've put the work in though and been playing well and scoring goals for fun this season!

This idea that you must have gritty players in a derby (Butcher, McGowan) to succeed is utter pish. Levitt was clearly the superior option to Butcher, and it proved on the pitch in the 2nd half. Thought Pawlett looked very good today, certainly the best performance I've seen from him in some time.

For us, Marshall was clearly our MotM, and until the goal which he should've done a lot better on Legzdins looked to be having a solid game, but that matters not a bit now. Once the dust had settled, it's fucking baffling that we're starting Griffiths over Cummings right now. Completely lost without Charlie, our midfield were thoroughly outplayed on the day, and the subs McPake were strange at best and just shite at worst. This loss is purely Dundee's fault rather than United being clearly superior.
