Put it this way....having a new manager at Liverpool coming in is going to be a big factor on whether we would see Beck back for another season. I don't really have any care for their fortunes but the new manager coming in will want to hit the ground running and for that reason, with Robertson and Tsimikas ahead of him, I can't see Beck getting much of a look in. We now have proof that if they wanted to keep him and a prospect for the future, that he will get regular game time and the chance to develop further. If January was anything to go on, though, we probably won't be the only ones looking for him either on a loan or transfer considering the old firm were sniffing around.

Courier reporting it. Cameron is our best chance at getting some decent money since Jack Hendry. When he signed a deal last year how long was it for? We need to safeguard ourselves as much as possible...

Exactly this.

Yeah that's a good point to be fair. I suppose my 'free-hit' accommodated for not shipping loads of goals.

Both teams hitting form at the right time of the season, this one will be a lot harder fought than other games this season but I still expect a Celtic win unfortunately. These games are free hits for us. I'd like us to start with a formation and line up that similar to the Rangers game but I think we may go back to a 3-5-2. Rangers punted it long constantly so there was no need to congest the midfield where I think we need to do that in this game. Tiffoney and Bakayoko up front as normal.

Bakayoko staying on with us is a great addition in my opinion. Someone posted earlier saying they think Bakayoko is one of our most underrated players and I completely agree - think I've said continuously that I don't understand the dislike a lot of our fans have for him. There hasn't been many examples of us being a better team when he's not on the pitch. I do think Main will be better with a full pre-season. For now, though, the partnership that has been the best has been Bakayoko + Tiffoney. I would like to say these final few games are a tester for players like Pineda and Robinson to prove their worth...but there is too much hanging on them with us chasing a European spot. Players like Robertson and Sharp aren't good enough for Dundee and that has been clear to me for a long time, as harsh as it seems. Robertson is a tidy wee player but we might as well accept that players like him and Sharp need to move on so as not to stifle their careers. If Donnelly is available to sign then we simply need to do it, he's got a bright future ahead of him. Same with McCracken.

The rest of us can't enjoy a drink at the game because of these muppets. Sectarian bile that just gets passed off as banter at the football by the powers that be. It really is a further kick in the stones when their fans do what they did last year with pyro and get away with it. Two wrongs don't make a right and our pitch has been a minter this season but the double standards by these gimps that pander to the old firm is incredible. Always hit the easy target first.

Ross County v Hibs. Same day our game against Aberdeen was postponed.

Are they going to hold every other club in the league to the same standard? If anyone else has to postpone one single game are they going to receive a fine? If we upgrade our pitch accordingly we are no different to anyone else. It's an absolutely farcical condition to set on the club.

It doesn't but it definitely suggests that. Makes reference to a further breach of SPFL rules - to me that's left to be fairly interpretive. Either way the size of the fine is an absolute joke if you take in to account Motherwells fine previously. Amazing what a tantrum from Rangers can do...

McCowans work rate is far better than Stewarts was. Stewart was a magician at times for us so I'm loathed to try and say which one is better. What I would say is the similarities between the two are crazy. McCowan in my opinion is captain material and that is what separates him from Stewart.

This is all 100% spot on. Bakayoko did well for us, though his final pass at times let him down, Cameron is brilliant and Main is still not fit; he also does this really frustrating thing that when the ball is punted in the air for him to challenge the first thing he does is stare at the player he is challenging and doesn't even care where the ball is. He's just there to hassle the opponents and bring others in to the game, which I think Bakayoko does better.

The premise of this is fine - but it has to come with balance. His lack of credit for the performance of Dundee and to basically suggest that we just clogged Rangers out of scoring was completely laughable. He described us as being lucky ffs. There's a balance to be struck between keeping the morale of your squad high when the tough gets going but you can't do that at the cost of delusion.

Dundee got £500,000 for Greg Stewart when he was 26 back in 2016. If you're talking about a figure close to a million for McCowan, then no, we probably won't be getting that but given he's under contract and wants to sign a new one with us then we should command a similar sort of fee as Stewart.

Very good performance last night again. This team just continue to impress with their work rate and patterns of play. McCowan is just a magician - having the composure on the ball of him and Cameron is so important to how we play. I just want Cameron to be a wee bit more physical. McGhee, like others have said, deserves a mention. Not been his biggest fan over the years but he is one of those that epitomises the work rate of the team. I also thought Dodgson was very good. Tiffoney is just a total pitbull - he put the fear in to the Rangers defence all night with his hassling. Costelloe when he came on...f**k me...just complete a pass mate. He could easily have been subbed back off again.
