Got to be the best team available but I’m not sure what that is anymore as a draw there would set us up for Saturday.

2-1 Utd

Think I counted 4players on the park yesterday who have contracts for next season so really hoping Utd have big plans as I don’t want us to go down the Dundee route with loan players as it didn’t work out well for them in their 2nd season back in the Premier League.

0-1 Celtic ☹️

SFA official Alan Muir has been told his VAR career is over after the former referee blundered by disallowing a Celtic goal against Hibernian in February that should not have been overturned. (Scottish Sun)
Nothing about the cheating against UTD!

“The minutes he’s actually managed is something you’d expect a Cleall-Harding or Owen Stirton to have for their development. Not the phucking club captain.”
I agree with this and if he misses any more games this season with Injury then it’s a definite no from me

0-1 Utd

Luca fouled before their first goal and according to former referee Keith Hackett ( BBC Scotland football gossip ) it was never a  penalty for there 4 goal so it was a really a 2-2 draw and not an absolute battering for Utd.

Saw Will Ferry running into training at the RPC in Dundee yesterday with the rest of the squad!

Any signs of Graham, Gallagher, Moult or Docherty?
 

 
Didn’t see Graham or Docherty but Gallagher and Moult both there could have just missed seeing the first 2 also.

Gallagher, Ferry, Moult and Docherty all described as 50/50.

Knowing the type of cautious Manager, Goodwin is, i doubt he'll risk them, particularly as we have another two week break thereafter.

Absolute joke that Docherty and Moult are still out, particularly the latter. Always a 'knock' that seems to keep him out for a month at a time. Gave up on Docherty a few weeks back.

Goodwin keeping his cards close to his chest regarding Ross Graham injury and/or illness to others.

Saying we have 'great options' regardless of injury. Sorry, but i'll have to disagree there, Jim.


 

It's so dispiriting,  every week you are just waiting on the news that another key player is unavailable after picking up a knock at training.

What are they doing in St Andrews or what are they not doing, there can't be anther team that has to contend with the amount of injuries.

Jim said that ' it's been a long season and the guys are feeling the effects'.

League games- Docherty 14 games, Moult 13 games, Gallagher 27 games Ferry 26 games,  Graham 13 games.

We got pumped out of both cups early so we have hardy had a gruelling run.

 
This is kind of what I was alluding to when questioning why certain players could be tired after playing 60 minutes of football!

I still can’t understand how professional sports players can be gubbed after playing 3 games in a week and can only manage 60 minutes.
What am I missing here ?

These last 2 games the standard of refereeing decisions has been shocking but thought again last night Jim brought on like for like substitutions apart from replacing Will and we got away with it on Saturday but not last night. We were cheated out of the 3 points but let’s go and try and win the games.
