So basically 1 win in 18 years

So kinda blows the theory we were worried by away fans being in the shed XD

We ain't done to bad recently in derbies tho.But for Bain being sent off it cud have been embarrassing.

It's a big game because it's a derby. End of.

Anyone who thinks otherwise is just covering their arse in case their team gets pumped.

United are looking good and dundee are looking good, either team could win this one.....it's just a shame it ain't with both teams up in the top half of the premier league instead.

Mainly due to us dropping to a very poor level as opposed to you getting up to our previous high level (as if lol) and even then it's been narrow, 4 of the last 5 have been at dens too.

Canna argue we that.

I would also like to add that living in Glasgow has taught me just how special our derby is when you compare it to the hate fest that the 2 Glasgow bigots serve up. This is a true rivalry, winding each other up before the game, bragging rights for one set of fans after the match and no one needs to die!

Can see both sides, derbies seem to be must win games as, geographically, they are against your nearest rivals but no more important in the big scheme of things than a win against Qos etc. You still only get 3pts.
