Hope Dundee get relegated now. They had one job...

Any result that keeps both teams below us is OK with me.

You must have missed my "not that I'm saying we should have signed him" quote. It was more a case of wondering if we are still in the market for a free agent striker.

More than Paul Slane, less than Allan Campbell.

So's Ciftci.

I'd like Killie to lose all their games in hand.

That's unfortunate - not that I'm saying we should have signed him; only that if Robinson is still looking for an extra striker, someone like that might be worth a punt. In theory, you can play for a 3rd club if 2 of the teams you play for have "overlapping seasons", but that counts for things like the MLS I presume, and not our early start in the League Cup.

Which 2 teams? Wiki says he's only played for OH Leuven in the 2017/18 season.

Tony Watt available as a free agent and heading back to Scotland.

I wish the rest of the media would ban their coverage too.

We could beat them every game for the next 50 years and that game won't be avenged. Just don't show Carson the highlights.

There's a huge gap between League 2 and the SPFL - even in fitness you can see a lot of guys that head north are not fit enough to play. I think the overall point is being missed though. It's not that a player is useless for 6 months. In this case, for me, Dunne was doing OK when it came to the basics of running, heading and tackling. People were judging him negatively on his ball retention and distribution. Now he's been playing a few months, that has improved. He's also had to learn things like how best to play in a back 3 one week and back 4 the next - and with different players in front of him; some who can defend and others not so much.

We beat Falkirk and Morton along the way to winning it last time. Either one of them would be just fine.

It's certainly working out well for them with all those cup wins.

Everybody on here predicted we'd be playing one of them.

It also shows that regardless of the dozens of times that it happens at our club alone, some fans never want to give a new player a chance. Wenger says it takes 6 months for a player to adapt to a new league. The East Stand reckons 1 game is sufficient.

Was watching the highlights on YouTube. No way from that footage to see if Cedric was actually offside, but there wasn't a single Dundee player appealed for it - instead they were arguing with themselves about giving away the goal.

I think Preston have forgotten Louis Moult too.

I always liked Dunne, and given his time out of the game, was happy to let him find his feet. I'm old school when it comes to defenders. You can coach passing and ball retention into a player, but you can't coach big and fast.

Aye, let Killie have another go at them on their plastic pitch.

He'll be hooked at half time for his own protection I imagine, but no protection from ref.

What's this spiel about Dundee liking to play football? From the commentary it seems their sole tactic is to kick Ciftci off the park and hope he retaliates.

Main, Ciftci and Tanner all start. Sounds like a good attacking formation.

You getting Sikh of the pun jabs?

As much as I prefer them to be midfield, we can always bring McHugh or Cadden back into defence. It's only for one game, so we'll cope.
