Thoroughly deserfed win, but as Hamilton sayed, didn't expect tge margin.

Great match and no just the the result, but the game itself. 50/50 in the 1st half IMO and up to half-time could've been anybody's. 2nd half we ran rings around them. In the main, it was their finishing that let them down.

Couple of moans only. We seemed to be giving away too many free-kicks. Mario seemed to loose possession easily on a number of occasions. But there were a couple of times when he was encircled by Dundee players by himself and nobody seemed to help him. Bit strange it has to be said.

Sorry TEK, but gonna disagree about Bilate who I thought played really well 1st half today. He won almost everything against their centre halfs, bullied then, held it up well and brought our players into it. Best he's played for us and looked a real hanful.

Fair enough bud.Just shows ye how we all see things different.

I think he looks physical enough.

But i just don't think his control or game awareness is uptae much.

That chance (where he was offside) in the 1st minute,i cannae mind him ever getting in space for a goalscoring oppurtunity.And i've thought that about him everytime i've seen him now.

I hope he comes good.maybe a better option fae the bench than a starter.

Bilate's positioning and reading of the game don't look great, but it's still early days.

Pates, Rankin, Dillo and Watson were very good today, can only think of 2 chances they had the whole game.

Onto Wednesday and do the same again, today has made it harder (and maybe more physical) I think. Ciftci and Armstrong in for Erskine and Bilate for me.

I thought Dillon and Watson were superb today, I read Dundee fans on P&B crowing last week about their incredible wingers who had pace to burn and we wouldn't be able to handle them, wtf, did they fail a fitness test or something?

Only GGH looked a danger and to be frank, he's fucking shite, their brilliant keeper is also gash and the boy McPake looks like he's got worse since he left Hibs, and I didn't think that was possible.

Paton our main man today for me, defence solid, Radio 50/50 but didn't have much to do, Ranks was alright, GMS and Dow good in flashes but not up to their usual standards, Erskine done well on the ball but didn't want it enough for me and Mario was okay, nothing better.

So we played alright and should have beat them 0-6, roll on Wednesday, Armstrong and Ciftci in for Erskine and Mario please and hopefully a 5-0.

the exact same mate, just because an average player has a good game against a pub team doesnt mean he is good, in my opinion i would prefer either paton or rankin to play beside a good technical player that has quick feet and movement, having said that i think due to the standard of spl being so garbage this season could see guys like paton prob having a good season

This is class.you see our fans going apeshit for the 2nd,3rd and 4th goals.

RogerTheAlien · 22/9/2014 9:43 am

Fucking excellent day lads, nothing better ripping those horrible bluenose wee cunts apart.

RogerTheAlien · 22/9/2014 9:45 am

Taped the full game, watched all the goals 3 times, could've had a wank while watching it as It was thon sexy. Keith Watson fucking hates them.
