Calum Butcher claiming Dundee are favourites for the derby. 

Strange tactic, but I like it. 

That sounds like it's straight out Robbie Neilson's 'Mindgames Masterclass' handbook. He claimed before the 2nd leg play-off final that St Mirren were under more pressure for that game as they were at home in front of a sell-out crowd. That worked out well. 

Presumably he thinks Utd are under more pressure tomorrow night then?

I think its more about creating an 'underdog' narrative for United, despite them being favourites. All teams like to look at themselves as the underdogs.

Absolutely. That's why it would be tremendous viewing if any even semi-decent journalist brought that quote up in a pre-match interview and watch him try to squirm his way out of admitting that all the pressure is on Utd.

Says it all about Danger that its 15.15pm the day before the game and he needs to add snoozes and naps into his routine.

Absolute bison - makes Mixu look like a bookies pen.

Got the energy of a tortoise on a comedown. No wonder the countries fucked with old coffin dodgers like him  contributing nothing to the economy except mass takeaway sales.

Thank you.
