    There are a few factors you can point to for this result (not a surprise we lost the final score)

    Bad luck with the injuries recently is the main one, especially season ending ones for our two best players, last time we played Falkirk was our strongest line up, and it could have been ten for us that day!

    Not only have these injuries robbed us of our best midfielder who was only gettin better by the week, it's robbed us of our most skillful and creative player, deflated the fans a bit and no doubt the team

    We've also had other niggly injuries keeping guys like Flood and Murdoch out at times, just Murdoch alone being out has saw us have to use Quinn more often and put Scobbie to fullback

    Murdoch Durnan Scobbie Robson were doing just fine and our defensive record was good home & away and we had started to bang in the goals post Ray and had found a team and system that worked

    Hugely significant theses injuries, as though we have brought in new faces (and way too early to judge what like they will be yet) it's more to get a little bit of strength back and full the void that we have lost through injuries as opposed to adding to what was a decent looking side for a couple months there (a side that was the strongest in the division imo), instead the players not starting who haven't shown themselves to be upto much so far like Keatings are coming in and not cutting it, with the new guys not ready either

    We need much much better in everyway starting next week, play our best team available in the best positions for them, try and hang in there, building confidence and make sure absolute worst case scenario is second place with a chance at going up (two ties to win compared to three last season)

    Freak result or not losing 6 goals to a struggling side is unforgivable and now some pumper in the Falkirk side saying it was for Utd show boating when we beat them, don't recall it myself tbh! In fact have not been entertained by Utd since the GMS et al days! I am not bothered about the 'rubber nuts' Dee posters giving us a ribbing, I can take it like most of us do. But I know one thing I'll always be United first and foremost, whatever league we are in.
