Easter road all over again, two set pieces, needless fouls given away. Should have killed the game off at 2-0. Absolute tragic our defending all season,

Im not giving Goodwin blame for this even thou still want him out . 2 up in 95 min and cant see the game out because defence is s**t at defending include so called captain and keeper

..that is 100% on the players. JG didn't try to see the game out and was actually trying to get a third. Clear your lines, do the basics and be professional. That is 100% on the defence.

Agree - I don't think we can hang this one on Goodwin.

Definitely a defensive calamity! Dundee never looked like scoring; we get gifted a penalty, score a good goal. My criticism of JG is that the team seem to sit in too much, when we have the lead. In saying that we had enough chances to put the game to bed and we didn’t; poor finishing and strikers off form. Watters and Farrugia did nothing today!

That losers mentality has been allowed to breed because our manager is a defeatist,his f*cking fault

I would put our captain out to face the press interviews.

Dundee United manager Jim Goodwin tells Premier Sports: "It's impossible for me right now to put into words what I'm feeling. How you can go from such a high to such a low.

"It was one of our best performances of the season, one of the most one-sided Dundee derbies that I can remember for a long time. The result should have been 2-0 at worst.

"We had three or four really good other opportunities in the game. We should have been out of sight going into added time.

"It just about sums up our campaign, why we're in the bottom half of the table. I've lost count of the amount of times we've been leading games and dropped points.

"There's clearly a fragility there. We've identified it. We know where the problems are. And it's my job as manager to put it right."

Absolutely its on Graham at the end, it wasn't JG that made a stupid foul then headed into his own net, gutted

Well if he has identified the problems why hasn?t he did something about it. We are 30 games into the season and as far as I can see his basic line up hasn?t changed. Going by the number of goals we have conceded the problem would appear to be our defence yet we still play three at the back. The personnel changes occasionally but it?s still the same system. Why did he remove Iovu and put Svelj in his place disrupting the midfield. He could have put young SCH on and kept the midfield intact.
Today was on the defence but JG has instilled in them a defensive mindset and they tried last 5 to shut up shop. We can?t defend so why do it?

Agree he brought on sap and Russell. It?s the defence that are absolutely sh ite!! And there isn?t many more options we can make at the back. Weak mentality lost us that game. Graham gives away a needless foul then banged home the equaliser!

Apart from the last 5 mins we were the better team. Their keeper kept them in the game.

Gutted again though feels like another defeat.
