    The shed

    Apparently Dunfermline have sold out the shed for the game tomorrow. My question is why have we not put them in the fair play stand and then if they sold that out gave them PATG for the shed? Anytime I’ve seen united playing away I always much prefer being behind the goal, I think the fans create a better atmosphere and that helps the team. Why have we not stuck there fans in the heavens of the fair play and sell on from there?

    Totally agree. They should be up at the back of the stands. Having them in shed is madness

    its a surprising move considering last year in the playoffs we didnt give morton, falkirk or accies the shed and chucked them in the fair play.

    never like seeing the opponent team in the shed esp if they bring a big/noise support as it can give there players more of a lift imo.

    Agreed, stupid decision, should have done what we did vs Falkirk last season, let them fill the fair play, and once they did then maybe give them a section or two at one side of the shed

    for regular league games its fine but not for a game like this, saying that our support should be well up for it anyway and on flip side the funsters have had the shed many times filled and not won at Tannadice for 14 years

    Oh think you'll find they definitely are, only a couple times have we fell to Dundee type crowds of under 5000 this season

    When was the last time Utd averaged under 6k in the top flight? Certainly not since I've drawn breath

    Dundee are currently despite 15-20k away fans from Celtic/Sevco/Sheep/Hearts/Hibs and Fermerse combined this season, even last season with two visits each from Celtic and Sevco your average was terrible, whereas we'd be looking at anything from 7500-8500 in the top flight with or without derbies

    Neither have we averaged under 5k/4k/3k in the second tier like the fun have in recent memory

    Whilst above a funster is counting the days since derbies 😂

    Shame united are poor at the moment but normal service should be resumed in a year or two.
