That should put a few more on the attendance figures! 😆😆😆

I only saw bits of the 2nd half, but they definitely played like a team lacking confidence. Hope it lasts.

Hearts will drop points, Rangers are on a run of games but are an appalling team and Celtic are a laughing stock. if we get a couple of players in January and get a couple of wins in the next few games I honestly believe we could be right in the mix and sustain it.

Douglas Ross is running the line for this one. Make sure we give him pelters!

Approach Udinese to get lennon on loan, keep Welsh and see if we can get a striker and mount serious title charge. Ps. Certain Dundee victory on Saturday 🤣🤣

Game of two halfs. Celtic should have been out of sight in the first half. They disappeared in the second and could not deal with utds direct up and at them approach. Celtic only playing 2 full backs and one center back is certainly not going to help their cause. We need to beat Dundee and get ourselves in amongst the chasing pack. Get one or two more quality players in and have go for the rest of season. Nothing fear and all to gain in this crazy season.

Celtic are hilariously bad again tonight. They could be on new manager bounce by the time we play them.

Having come across them at DP v Clyde in first game of season, I said I wouldn't willingly go to another away game , manhandling stewards who were trying to take flares off them...hottest , brightest day of the year...surprised they can dress themselves, never mind go to fitba.

I did laugh at that but you know it would be such a Motherwell thing that he gets poached off us before we even get started 🫣

Are you MJC. Are you MJC. Are you MJC in disguise? 🤣

If we beat Dundee and get by Rangers and Celtic without getting beat, I might come back and argue with you.

we're not going to finish above Celtic.

We are 10 ahead of utd in 8th place. A nice gap. A draw tonight would be our best result. Keeps celtic close, utd well back and more pressure on celtic.

Hoping for Utd to take 3 points of Celtic tonight amd keep them within our reach. Pile the pressure onto Celtic but not enough to get rid of Nancy yet. save that for after our game at Fir park.

Depends who JBA's replacement wants to keep

The only 1 that may have better offers will be JK. I'd expect Mcginn and SOD to both get extensions given the amount they've played Welsh will most likely be gone. Gordon I'd expect to leave based on game time and Balmer will be off either in January or the Summer.

Yes they do and as I said in my post the stewards aren't blameless but the Well Bois in front of us in the Q going into Tannadice were foul mouthed abusive and generally being obnoxious and entitled this in turn was met by the same reaction from the stewards. It was a situation that was easily avoidable. I find it utterly amazing that how some of our fans can attend every match home and away for 50 odds years, myself included , and have never been ejected from the ground or had any confrontation with the police or stewards. I guess we must just be lucky.

Time to start scouring the training pics to see if he featured this week! 😍😍😍

🤣 I was sitting at the back of the stand chatting to our group before kick off, when a steward approached and eyeballed me. In an aggressive fashion he said standing was not permitted at games. I replied that I knew and that was why I wasn't standing. I also pointed out politely that 80% of the crowd was standing and he should address that. He then kicked off and threatened to have me ejected for disruptive behaviour. A totally manuactured problem. Over the years the stewards at Tannadice and Dens have earned a reputation for being unjustifiably troublesome. Given that and my experience I'm always sceptical of accepting accounts at face value. Yes the behaviour of some in Block E can be OTT at times, but in my admittedly limited dealings with them they've always been perfectly fine.

Why not? We're in the hunt, could strengthen, I'll still stand by the Motherwell mantra, not last, and not 2nd last

To be fair, you do seem like a trouble maker that stweards need to keep an eye on... When we were relegated to the First Division, I used to get searched by the Polis at away grounds on a regular basis. Not sure why other than I often used to have a radio (for the half time scores) in my coat pocket.

Hopefully, Stephen Welsh will be passed fit for Saturday. Concussion rules seem to be: 1) a graduated return to play protocol means that the player involved can't return to full training or match action for 7 days. 2) A more severe concussion would see a player ruled out for longer Source: Dundee Courier.

Having being victimised by security at Tannadice myself before, I'd like to to hear the Block E lads' version of events before arriving at any conclusion.

Exactly this. We arent conceeding goals because we dont give the opposition easy ball. When a defence of SOD, Gordon, McGinn, Koutroumbis is keeping clean sheets after the evidence of last season, you have to take your hat off to the manager. Welsh & Longelo improve us playing out from the back, but they arent essential to the shape / structure, as can be seen from the consistency in performance despite squad rotation.

It’s the effectiveness of the system, more than the individuals in the back four or the goalkeeper, that prevents goals being conceded.
