you could say thats the team that played against Morton (A) but then pretty much the same team played against Dunfermline and it was the worst performance of the season.

The Morton win has gone in to folklore as some kind of great blueprint of how United win matches when in reality is was an awful match in which we managed to score a goal and Morton didn't, which is perhaps not surprising when you consider Morton are off form and have scored only one goal in their last 6 games, that is 1 solitary goal in over 9 hours of football. JG was even puzzled after the Dunfermline defeat saying it worked against Morton. Its a different game of football FFS.
I dont want to hear JG prematch again saying I told the players 'to be calm' or Grieve playing up front or we will have to play long balls because of weather conditions etc. Anything short of a pumped up United team, playing with a high tempo will just not be good enough.
I think we can get a victory on Saturday; we have the players who are capable of winning this match. I just hope all of them turn up in a positive manner
Come on United!!
I thought the Morton game showed a bit of team spirit and fighting quality...but not much else. It would have been an entirely different game if they had scored first. Over the past few games, I have really struggled to see where our goals are coming from, we will definitely need our forwards to have their shooting boots on this weekend!
Morton’s main striker has been injured the last few weeks. Can’t recall his name off the top of my head. Agree with weegiearab assessment though.
Every week its like watching talented boxers going into the ring and told to use one hand only and not move from a particular corner. Then when they get pummelled to feck having no way to respond...
It's quite simple....win the next 6 games and win the league. Fail to win on Saturday and our destiny is out of our own hands. It is a massive game for us.....and we all know how that normally goes! Saturday would be a great time to get the "bottlers" monkey off our back.
quite nervous about Saturday, Think the majority of our fans think were not going to win.
Hopefully the boys can prove us wrong and for god's sake score first.
