That was horrendous today, couldn’t believe how bad we were. The Austrian boy, Jesus Fuk.

Telt yous.

Rabitsch was average but he was more effective than Stanton.
Rabitsch is there to protect the back four which on the whole he did
Stanton is there to create openings, he created nothing

Wtf did Aird do to get a fehv 😕

Granted very little but he did provide the cross for the goal.

I was too genorous on reflection with Robson down to a 2 he really is pish he has made no progress on the last 3 years

Aird looks like he might do well. Played the ball back to others too often when he might have done better using his ain skills. Had a close one fae 35 yards and a couple of efforts well over fae distance. Has mair to him than the tactics he was obviously under helped/didnae help him but skyed a couple too. I think he might be important for us if played tae his potential and plays to his confident potential and on form.

Within a draw or pen loss in a pish performance v Arbroath it's hard to give players a positive.

Arbroath played it like a cup match and we played it like a friendly or training game.

Nothing dubious 'bout Tom btw 😃

Has Slabber had anything to say for himsell about this. Surely a Sunday morning soliloquy on Arabzone is the least we can expect. Dying to hear what he's got say about yesterday's conundrum.

Rabitsch looks like a player who's going to elicit some strong opinions* - should take some of the heat off Murdoch at any rate ☺

*personally I thought he did ok, better than many - am guessing that CL wants to play with one defensive CM in front of the back four and Rabitsch and Barton will be fighting it out for that spot

We're fucked. That was fkn abysmal. No two ways about it. We've signed shite. Our players are fkn shite. 40 years of being a fantastic club, fucked.

There will be a very different reaction if this goes to penalties.

It was a very similar start to 2 seasons ago.

RMs signings Bell Murdoch Telfer odebayi

CLs signingd Siegrist Frans Rabitsch Aird

Very similar standard IMO.

Lets wait and see what happens next Csaba will be judged by his results in the league

Sloppy error on my part. Replace Telfer with Toshney and I think the point stands that we are no further forward or back than we were two years ago.

Csaba needa a few key signings in the next few weeks to give him a chance to save his job.

Priority 1 is a genuine target man

Maybe just me, but I think he was carrying a knock from the first half onwards, he was moving awkwardly I thought, unless he's like the treble buster

Don't hold back lol

Sorry to be the boring b@stard guys, can somedy spill the beans aboot what Slabbers got to say for himsell. (that's if the Zones working of course).

Richs2Rags · 16/7/2018 11:33 am

Hi Billy, Csaba just bemoans the betfred as he feels its still midway through preseason, hes not happy with the draw and whats the players to play quicker football, yes it takes him 6 mins to slabber this.

bowers · 16/7/2018 11:43 am

Was reading that slabber wanted 5 subbies in this?

Yet used only 1 on sat

Cant think of any explanation why he only used 1 subby

very few could complain if they were taken off

clearly the team "plan" was not working and needed changed

Mcmullan who looks like he is on the way out played the 90m leaving Smith feeling unappreciated.

He has said the players were tired after a double session on friday
]Lastly it was one of the hottest days Dundee has had in years 25°

Apart from that i can see what your up to Csaba

bowers · 16/7/2018 12:53 pm

It just another thing in a long list of shambolic things with him.

Even tho the footage shows the bouts of good play we had, including our goal and eg. (5 mins at the start of 2nd half ), watching some of that was painful esp . the Robson faux-pas which led to their goal.

17/7/2018 10:17 am

The two pens were ridiculous, the two together didn't make one. Arbroath were as astonished as we were to get either award, the 2nd one their No 2 stabs at the ball then falls on his arse, nobody touched him. They didn't even appeal. Madden's useless, what's his agenda?

We are still surprisingly disliked by the rangers
It would appear they will take any opportunity to remind us.
There is a remarkable lack of accountability for referees in our league as there is no tv coverage

Has anyone mentioned it or did anyone notice?
There was a repeat of the New Douglas Park Watergate scandal at half time.
Didn't help us that much tho.
