Beating Dundee United will never not be enjoyable no matter who their manager is. A more arrogant support you’d struggle to find outwith Celtic and Aberdeen.

Similar to Aberdeen. Still believe the next good manager appointment will bring back the 80's.

Great win and great crowd, over 6400!!.   1st half loads possession without creating much.   2nd half missed good chances before a peach from watt.   I hope Maswanhise not injured as should have been off well before he was finally subbed.

Big decisions for Saturday.   I would start Said or Just ahead of RCC.  Welsh and Gordon centre half because of physicality of St Mirren.  Mcginn great tonight so tough call.

Only my opinion but I think JBA prefers McGinn as he's got more 'fitba' about him than Gordon. Same reason he played Ward instead of Ox. I thought the Welsh sub tonight was weird. Did I miss him getting a knock ? Agree Maswanhise should have been off earlier. Surprised he came back out for 2nd half TBH.

Totally agree. Win against one of better teams in Scotland also.

I have nothing against Utd as a club, but it's always a bit more satisfying when we beat a Jim Goodwin team.

Jim Goodwin was a horrible fraud of a player and an arrogant no mark as a manager. Delighted to beat a Goodwin team but I’ve never like Utd either, never liked the legend Jim McLean and his bullying and destruction of young players back in the 80s and 90s. Their fans are annoying too.

job done…… semi final excitement begins.

I thought I posted at half time but apparently not.

We totally dominated possession in the first half but I honestly thought it was a snooze fest.

Luckily we got the goal just before HT.  Longelo coming a few minutes before gave us so much more attacking impetus.

Second half was much more enjoyable even though Dundee Utd put us under pressure at times.

The game opened up and we had the space to play into and sudden we looked a lot more threatening even though our dominance of the ball was gone.

Thought we defended well tonight, although we got a stroke of luck when Dundee Utd hit the post when they should have scored.

Thought going into these two games we needed 4 points just to steady us a bit and we've taken 6 so that's great.

We've also kept a clean sheet and extended our lead in the second half when earlier in the season teams we're pegging us back.

Pretty happy.

I think i'm correct in saying, we haven't lost a semi to a non OF team since Airdrie. Is that right ?

One bad omen is that I've never seen my team (ok Scotland, not Motherwell) win from that end of Hampden. 

Excited for the semi obviously, but shitting it too. Got a wedding in Blantyre thursday, a gig in Tarbert Friday and the semi on Sat. Three whole days off the rock for me !

A thoroughly professional display. Other than the post scare we completely dominated a United side that has started the season well. I was right behind Watt's strike. What a thing of beauty it was. Well done lads. 

Naturally it's the O'Neill show on BBC Scotland. Shock
