So how are Dundee under pressure?  After all, they've dropped 4 points to Arbroath this season already, and Queens losing tonight has put the spotlight right on them.  How's their bottle?  How about their fans?   

Feel fine tbh. 50/50 game tomorrow, will be difficult but we’ve been chasing queens for weeks now and a lot of must win games in that period to stay within touching distance. Roll on tomorrow.

If you think the spotlight is on anybody else in this league than Dundee at all times then you're just as doolally as the rest of the fishmen on here.

Tonight has actually decreased the need for a win tomorrow. If we draw then we still have the chance to be three clear by the next round of fixtures.

Tonight it's very much feet up. 

Thank you.

It’s all about The Dundee Derryboys. Always has been, always will be.

A point isn't the end of the world for us tbh.

A win puts us in a massively good situation, but as long as we don't get beat (which should apply for every game for us) then there shouldn't be much more pressure than usual.

Aye, but London is the second or third biggest city in the continent, depending on whether you include the whole of Istanbul (which I wouldn't).

You're still the second biggest club in your city, which itself doesn't rank in the top three in the country by population. 😝

It's 4th. All our record crowds dwarf Uniteds. Next.

Aye, going back 40+ years, maybe. They're a much bigger club. Sweet dreams. 😝

They're 15th in ALL TIME in Scottish football history. Dundee are 5th or 6th.  Rangers  Celtic, Hibs, Hearts, Aberdeen, Dundee, top 6 of all time. United are down in 15th.  Next lesson.

They're one of the last clubs outwith the Old Firm to win the league, beat Barcelona home and away in the 1980s, have won the Scottish Cup twice as many times as you, and once this century, have a bigger stadium and more fans.

I'm trying to establish who you really support.

You are definitely not a United fan, as you would know that carrying on with this argument would lead to failure.

You are not a St Johnstone fan as even they don't hate us this much.

You don't support anyone in the Championship, as you are apparently 'neutral'.

You say you favour West Coast clubs so can't be a Jambo.

Ahhh, you're a virgin from the West Coast, who hates the city of Dundee for voting yes and changing the email response, embarrassed to admit who you really support as you will be ridiculed across the board. You are clearly a The Rangers fan.

Is this how Dundee deal with pressure?  Tell themselves repeatedly that they are a bigger club than Dundee United?

Hilarious, isn't it?

In all fairness, it's a fascinating rivalry with Dundee Utd being the smaller club until the 1970s or '80s. The proximity of their grounds is amazing, too:

But Dundee Utd are a much bigger club now. I would love to see which side has finished highest in the league structure over the last forty years...

Close enough.

Only just started taking an interest in Airdrie, but surely too soon to write off the club's play-off chances already?! 

:lol: 

What a melt.

Another one who thinks History has a time limit, but still shouts about King Billy.
