texanwellfan Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Killie v hearts in midweek. 3 points against Aberdeen would be nice, thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underboyleheating Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Watched the game via periscope and from what I witnessed both sides looked pretty poor. However, 3 points is not to be sniffed at. Mon the Well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizoxy Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Great 3 points to keep us in with a chance of top six, and most likely a win away from safety. Nice way to exorcise that killie game. Murder to listen to though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daver Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Great win that must have us nearly safe from relegation which is objective number one for this season. Didn't sound pretty though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milo Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Great to get the win but apart from the 3 centre half’s, quite a few ineffective performances. The ref was absolutely atrocious (particularly when he ignored Caulker throwing Main to the ground twice in quick succession) then ignored a really strong penalty for Dundee in the 90th minute! I don’t think either goalie had a save to make. Big bowman was superb when he came on. Ciftci offered nothing I’m afraid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stv Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Bowman is working himself up towards the Hearts game and getting stuck right in . Ciftic is practicing fallin down for the Hearts game and needs to get his finger out,stop appealing and get on with the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An important result for us. How Dundee must hate Craig Tanner! Onwards and upwards! Going by his post match comments Neil McCann wasn't happy at all. Had a go at match officials and singled out Curtis Main. Maybe he should look closer to home. he's obviously under pressure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assumed their wee pal Neil was going to get the win so had us at 32? First time in years that we've had a team that can grind a result out while playing poorly. Should we just be grateful for it..?

Pepper Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Watching the game on Alba just now. It's certainly not been pretty so far. Great touch and cross by Main for the goal. Another thing to really like about Campbell is he's not afraid to demand more of the senior players when they're not cutting it. He's having none of it!

Should we just be grateful for it..? 2013/14 under McCall was the epitome of that expression. I don't think we put in any great performances all season but just seemed to keep getting results. That smash and grab at Pittodrie summed it up perfectly. Still, the only stat from today that mattered was the result. Makes up a bit for losing last week while playing a lot better. Football's a funny old game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

real dosser Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Is McGowan a moaning wee arse or what ?? Apart from the goal both teams could have played till next Saturday and not scored. Still terrific 3 points. COYW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzyB Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 Good win, gives us half a chance for the top six. Actually, just checking the fixtures and we have Aberdeen, Celtic and Rangers in our last five games. Don't think we can pull it off unfortunately.

Alpha1886 Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 We couldn't make game. Avoided score and watched game 'live' on Alba. Still ended up screaming at ref. Awarded 22 fouls to Dundee and 11 to us. Booked 1 of them (guess who?) and 3 of ours. Fed up that refs do not have to answer to anyone and get well paid for it. ( Maybe Lennon is right for once and refs should be sent off (although I don't recall him having a go at same ref, I think, when he gave Hibs penalty and booked Tait for diving in 2-2 game at Easter Road this season.)) Agree the game was of a poor standard but that can be down to approach of other team and us not being good enough to raise our game to a higher level. But thought we more than cancelled out Dundee and the movement for the goal was at least decent. Their main threat (apart from their right winger) came from free-kicks (see above) and corner kicks which we dealt with fairly well, down to our organisation and concentration (and Carson coming for crosses.) Sympathy for Ciftci. We couldn't seem to get him into game in right area of park. To me we want him with ball at his feet in final third of the park where he's effective. Think he gets frustrated when not involved and is actually trying too hard to make things happen by dropping too deep - not just at Dundee, also against Killie. Although our style of play also asks our forwards to track back. Watching him closely against Killie it's not lack of effort - against Accies he was part of the pressing that led to own goal and he won the ball to make second goal against Ross County but both times in final third. Agree that Bowman was more effective when he came on but that may have been down to how both games developed. And I was ready to put bet on that ref was going to send Ciftci off so it was the right move to sub him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzyB Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 From the three minutes of highlights it looks like we were extremely fortunate to win today. They missed a few absolute sitters, potential foul from Main for backing in (although that's questionable as you can argue he was standing his ground), then he looks offside as he receives the ball and then to top it all off one of the worst pieces of defending this season when the Dundee boy decided not to cut out the cross. Also annoying the highlights team omitted the Kipré handball, wanted to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The African Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Three minutes of highlights would seem to sum up the game. Still, churlish to complain too much about three important points won. We will have to play a good deal better against Aberdeen, Celtic and Rangers in the coming league games if we are to pick up anything, but we are capable of doing so,and we will beat home. Big week coming up with the chance of two good results turning an acceptable season into an exceptional season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I was ready to put bet on that ref was going to send Ciftci off so it was the right move to sub him. Good points. Dundee could easily have had a few players yelow carded. Kusuinga again put himself about and was fortunate not to puck up a card, as was Moussa for standing on Tanner's foot. Murray could easily have been carded for dissent. Some suggestion also that MacGowan was yellow carded again after the final whistle. We were no angels, but Dundee know how to look after themselves and won the physical battle yesterday. I agree about Ciftci and think he's more of a penalty box player. the goal was definitely onside and Dundee knew it. Yet another shut out and 3 away points. I'll take it.

superwell87 Posted February 25, 2018 Report Share Posted February 25, 2018 Might have won ugly, but its 3 points and a clean sheet at the end of the day. Was torture following the game on the BBC live text at work right enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
