    Hey chaps, I loiter on the boards a lot but don't post much - last time I appealed for calm over Jmac's results going south, so my perspective is always open to serious questioning.

    First of all the subject 'we won and le fun dinnae' is possibly the best ever written.

    Let's be careful though - part of what makes being an Arab so much fun is the banter with the cheep seats across the road, and one of the things that makes me proud to be a fan of football in Dundee (not a Dundee football fan - obviously) is that the light-heated nature that the intercity rivalry is conducted. Watching the ugly sisters spill bile and venom into each other across Weeg makes me glad everyday I'm an Arab.

    Let's not lose sight of that. We need the Dee, if only to know just how fortunate we are not be be one of them. It must be awful to wake up everyday and know that 100 yards seperates you from trophies and the ability to win penalty shootouts, so let's make sure we appreciate the contribution of our poor relations. We want them in the top league, so we can play and beat them. We want them to be financially stable so they can go mad and spend money on Argentinian geriatrics once in a while. It takes a special kind of person to not understand the difference between a win and a draw in football and give Neil McCann a job. Let's tell them how special they are, and be a little more tolerant of their (many) faults.

    At least they're not Old Firm!
