Way tougher challenge than we've had recently so no expecting anything

When I've seen them recently they look the best side in the league by a fair bit with their January additions making a difference, especially strong at home where their only defeat was a robbery by officials against Hearts earlier in season (shoe on the other foot that day) and think they've taken 10 Pts more than Hearts and Celtic since that Rohl been manager

However they still have weakness there too as saw against Celtic, both games they should have won by 3-4 goals and they won neither

The sheep were poor at Ibrox a fortnight ago but still had chances at 0-0 and we are capable, best bet is no early goals and see if crowd gets a bit anxious as they have the chance to play first and go top before tomorrow, their support will be well up for it today, we need to really hit them when we get the chance on the break

Head says 3-1 them ]]> THE EXEC LOUNGE shedka https://boards.footymad.net/showthread.php?t=38385996 https://boards.footymad.net/showthread.php?t=38385923&goto=newpost Fri, 03 Apr 2026 09:34:21 GMT Always remember that day opening The Courier and on the sport page the headline was 'Exclusive: United set to sign Brazilian superstar Josimar' It was Unbelievable. Josmiar had been one of the standouts at 86 World Cup. United offered ?400k which at that time was huge. It was reported as near completion

Stumbled across recently an article in The Courier that did a follow up feature on this a couple of years back.

https://www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/past...e-united-1988/

A nice background summary which missed one key detail. It was The Courier revealing that United were set to sign Josimar that helped blow up the deal. It alerted other clubs and he ended up at Sevilla. Jim Mclean was absolutely furious with The Courier and if I recall correctly banned the paper from Tannadice.

Anyone else with memories from this? ]]> THE EXEC LOUNGE arab777 https://boards.footymad.net/showthread.php?t=38385923 https://boards.footymad.net/showthread.php?t=38385783&goto=newpost Wed, 01 Apr 2026 07:55:18 GMT I just saw this on the Dundee Culture page on Facebook.

Very good from United both weeks, minus the brain fart couple minutes end of last week

Looks like we've found an xi we can go with for the next few games, barring injuries, they proved it wasn't a one off last week and no sign of a repeat towards the end, showed character

Lots of good performers again today

Looking solid and carrying a threat


Well done JG and the boys ]]> THE EXEC LOUNGE shedka https://boards.footymad.net/showthread.php?t=38384751 https://boards.footymad.net/showthread.php?t=38384550&goto=newpost Fri, 20 Mar 2026 18:26:18 GMT Understandably no appetite for this match from our fans. I am very concerned about this match. I think we could have easily been blown away by them in the match we won and I fear they will be more clinical this time. With how close things are at the top of the table, I think it may well come down to goal difference. Both OF teams will be coming to us, hoping to score goals...and I think we are really fragile after last week's collapse. I genuinely fear that we might get back to back hammerings! Let's just hope that Celtic bottle it and have a Nancy esque match!
