The Master Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 A must-win game if we're to finish in the top 6, IMO. Especially with a tricky March to come. We've had a decent run of form lately, so hopefully we can keep it going. Team picks itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 It'll be interesting to see how Hughes approaches this game. The last two outings we've gone with a kind of 4-6-0 formation with no out and out striker, but that was against the two best sides in the league. It's worked pretty well and we beat Aberdeen and gave a good performance at Celtic Park. We don't really have the squad to make changes so it's really a matter of who plays where. I'm not sure if Raven is still out but assuming he is we'll go with Tremarco, Devine, Warren and Horner at the back then a midfield of Tansey, Vigurs, Draper and Polworth with Roberts and Storey ahead of them. We played Roberts and Storey wide rather than through the middle with breaking midfidlers often our most advanced player. We've dominated possession with this - having four central midfielders in a compressed area will let you do this and relied on breaking at pace or using Roberts and Storey to press the opposition up the pitch. Roberts in particular looks like he is good at pressing and offers a real threat. Storey has worked hard but hasn't scored in seven matches and is maybe running a little low on confidence.

Bigmouth Strikes Again Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 " A must win game" in the words of Biggie during our championship winning era. A win here will go a long way to securing top 6, then we'll be 90 minutes away from Hampden the following week. Rise Dundee FC. Thank you. Correct. Thank you.

RiG Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 If you don't include the Challenge Cup Final I think the last time you won against us was in 2005. 3 - 1 win at Dens Park in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R2Dee2 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Andrew Dallas taking charge of the game this weekend. I'm sure he was in charge in the first game against ICT after which Hughes lost the plot calling into question Dallas' ability to referee at Premiership level. Could be interesting?

The Master Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 Andrew Dallas taking charge of the game this weekend. I'm sure he was in charge in the first game against ICT after which Hughes lost the plot calling into question Dallas' ability to referee at Premiership level. Could be interesting? That's right. He also had the easiest red card decision he'll ever have to make when Mutombo scythed down Nick Ross soon after we equalised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.T Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 The other two dwarf the Celtic match in significance. Infact, i'm not too fussed about that one and fair play to anyone who travels through. Thank you K.T. A very good point. If we could get 3 points against ICT and beat The Rangers for a place in the cup semi final that would be beautiful. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiG Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Andrew Dallas is a woeful referee. Probably as bad as Colum. That said he got the Mutumbo red card spot on that day. A crazy challenge on probably the least offensive player playing in Scotland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifespud Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 This is a must, must win game. These no marks have no place at the top table of Scottish football. Our front line is pretty much unstoppable at the moment. Dundee 0 ICT 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LBC-91 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Inverness looked really good v Celtic at the weekend. Should have been a few up watching the highlights. If we win this were bound to make top 6. Such a big game. Be nice to get 5k home fans. 1-1 me thinks......... Then Hemmings to score 94th min Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 We're due a win against this mob - last match at home was ridiculous - they were total hammer-throwers. Unfortunately the ref that day let them away with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
