Tough call between the Motherwell game and the St Mirren game but I'll say the St Mirren game. We were brilliant that day. It could have been double that if Brian Graham hadn't missed a barrowload.

Only game I wasn't at was the thumping of Motherwell. Actually had a ticket arranged for that day and then proceeded to sleep in and miss the Stagecoach i had also bought a ticket for (only by about 1/2 minutes too).
I'm gonna vote for 'Match 1' the hammering of a decent St.Mirren side (they had won the League Cup that year).
Ryan Gauld was just absolutely sublime that day. Completely bossed proceedings, despite being just 17 years old. As I've said previously I believe he was the best DUFC player I've seen at that age.

If it's down to 'Favourite Match' out of these personally, it might have been the game against Hearts in 2016. In hospitality, dancing around with Cath Thompson and her group of ladies after the late and rare goal from Paul Paton which game us false hope, fuelled by alcohol of course. Demel also got his only goal for United that day. It was also a big, big birthday for me too.
The other games too, with the display against St Mirren hugely influenced by young Ryan Gauld and fans' favourite Jon Daly's second club hat trick (I'm not totally confident about that...) v 'well stick in the mind, but closest to me to the Hearts game is the Rugby Park encounter.
With a lot less drink in my system, no strange ladies with which to commit offences of which Salmond has been accused, and a far, far better team, I'd have to go with Johnny Russell's perfect hat trick (left, head, right) in Peter Houston's last ever win as a Dundee United manager. How Houstie ever thought he could go on to a better gig confuses me to this day, he had everything going for him at Tannadice, apart from an inept chairman. Had he stayed, with the lads coming through, he would have moved on to a life changing job (in terms of cash) down south. But he appeared to shit it at the prospect of the Rangers tribute act heading to Tannadice for a cup tie.

Have to go game 1 for this one. Watching those highlights reminds me how unplayable Nadir could be. Unreal player, surprised he hasn’t done more with his career.

Gonna go for the St Mirren game, another Gauld masterclass.
Killie game a close 2nd for JR’s hat trick and GMS being pretty sensational.
I'll plump for match 2 - was the only game out of the 4 that I was at, and Paton's winner was a belter!

Tough choice this one. I’ll go for the St. Mirren game.
