Could be down to the fans you are sitting with. Edited November 30, 2021 by johnnydun 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well no, thats why I mentioned that even when we've lost I've heard almost nothing from Dundee fans, simply because any noise from the opposing end seems to vanish. I'd guess Dundee fans behind the goal barely hear any noise from the away end too, barring sell outs where they give the OF the ~4k tickets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never heard any sort of singing note actually come from the Derry. Its generally just folk raging for 75 minutes then leaving. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you want us to remove the pitch so the stands can be a bit closer? Edited November 30, 2021 by RossDee01 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 Lee Ashcroft is out for tomorrow. That's a blow. As much as he's quite pish, he's unfortunately probably still our best CH - just can't decide on Sweeney - it's an even bigger blow to see Fontaine coming in. Fontaine will give up at least one golden chance per game so up to St Johnstone to take it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you finally build your monorail new ground you'll probably see the difference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t mind Fontaine alongside Ashcroft but him and Sweeney worries me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossBFaeDundee Posted November 30, 2021 Author Share Posted November 30, 2021 No Ashcroft is bad. Not a big fan of two left-footed CBs playing together for whatever reason, and McPake has about as much faith in Panter as he did with wee Nicky Hamilton. Chris Kane hat-trick to offset Danny Mullen's hat-trick, imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 E2 and Viv against Liam Fontaine. Type of thing you hype up as a total mismatch then its 90 minutes of Fontaine absolutely strolling it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In saying that, over the last 3 or 4 games Cammy Kerr is probably in his best ever form for Dundee. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. I typed in 'E2 St Johnstone' into Google and this is the first link that comes up, directing me right to this post by Biggie.

Ashcroft's deficiencies can probably be hidden with a classy CH next to him to allow him to be the 'rough and tumble' CH, but then I think Sweeney has all the attributes to do that better than Ashcroft with a bit of stability in the backline. I also really like Marshall going forward. Think he's cracking going forward, but he's chronic defensively at this level, no idea what we can do to get the best out of him. Don't think having two no nonsense, rugged and slow CH's helps cover for him though. RB needs addressed regardless of Cammy's form, but agreed that he's played decently of late. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
