    Ayr

    Beginning of the end for GB (really hope not) or start of one last push for the title?

    Think we defo have to score first to win this, lose a goal and the cretins in our support will take over and it will just become a bit too toxic.

    Looks like we have a few out again.

    Be there hoping for a decent performance but more importantly the win.

    if we take on AYR with the same attitude when we beat QUEENS PARK, we should win.
    Hope GB changes the team tonight and plays two up front,we are due to score a few goals, and a few goals tonight would surely boost our confidence.

    Never one for trying to pick a team or that, we don't see them in training .....but......there's an argument to drop Robinson tonight if he plays one up top.

    I'm no fan of Jak but he almost did enough to turn the game on Saturday.

    If he goes two central strikers it (imho) leaves a bit of a conundrum in the middle.

    Ashcroft looked like he was carrying a fairly limiting injury on Saturday as well.

    I just hope (a bit forlorn) that the fans that attend remain patient, game isn't won in the first ten minutes.

    People want to vent at ft, fine, but 10 15 into game or in some cases an hour b4 kick off when team is announced is just wrong.

    I'll go one goal victory.

    not a fan of Jacubiak either, but he does have a physical presence, plus looking for more from the likes of Mulligan etc,
    we are needing a captain to start kicking arses.
    hope we get a good crowd tonight to inspire the team.
    MON THE DEE !

    Really looking forward to the game tonight, even tho they have not been playing well.

    been in Spain for a month, barely watched any tv, never bought any papers, nae phone calls or e-mails, bliss,
    drunk copious amounts of red wine, had decent weather, and now refreshed, just need the DEE to do the business tonight !

    Surely the manager can see that two up front is the way forward. Chalk and cheese from the isolated striker nonsense we have been seeing. Decent performance overall but title winning form, don't really know. Would take winning ugly right through to winning the title but thoughts go to what players could cut it in the Premier. Personally I would be hard pushed to think of any. Poor crowd last night though, Coxy seemed well down in numbers!

    We had the same problem when McPake was the manager and he would insist in playing Kane Hemmings up front on his own.
    Attendances at midweek games are historically poorer than Saturday games.
    Midweek evening matches at Dens Park used to be played on a Wednesday evening which coincided with the half holiday in Dundee being on a Wednesday.

    Is there still such a thing as a half holiday during the week any more? Just asking I genuinely don’t know if such a thing persists.
