5 Facts, Findings And Thoughts About Beating United

1) Ok, I thought all Kris Commons did was score goals. I understood his value to the team but was unsure of his overall ability. Yesterday, he gave – for me – his first perfect 10 all round performance. He showed ability of wing play unseen before plus he scored, again. This humble pie tastes surprisingly sweet.

2) Commons was not the only experienced member of the squad that gave the type of calm and assured performance that will be needed to see the team over the line. Danny, Wilson and Broonie also were calm when we were having wobbles. Mention to Mulgrew as well, he was vocal.

Though, our goalie looks and acts like a stoned giraffe.

3) It’s fairly obvious that we are a danger to ourselves. When the tempo dropped we started misplaced passes and getting sloppy. We need to concentrate for the 90 mins. On another day United would have put us under serious pressure if they had took their chances when they had that spell on top.

4) How many off you like me, cast their mind back to a goal the other Dundee team scored – in injury time – in season 2002/03 when United scored? That team never had Messi Murphy though.

5) Gary Kenneth is rapidly replacing Zander Diamond is may favourite clown like centre half. He seems like the type of bloke that records Celebrity DIY with Craig from Big Brother. Mr Potato Head also had a justified grievance with the ref. Beram Kayal should have got booked. But Jon Daly also deserved to be booked.

At least Dundee United put in a bit of effort to look that bad. Can Murderwell say the same?
