DERBY PREVIEW: Injuries, transfers and where the Tannadice tussle will be won and lost

Derby day approaches once more and the season bragging rights are at stake at Tannadice. 
The result has much different ramifications for either side – a United win settles them in seventh spot but a Dundee defeat could put them in a spot of bother. 
So where will Sunday’s clash be won and lost? 
And what can we look forward to in the summer? Transfers, new contracts, new goalies? 
It’s an all-in again for this derby special – hosting is George Cran alongside Alan Temple and Graeme Finnan.

Silly old sport

Lots of goals and last-gasp penalties.
Dundee United took their chance from the spot and grabbed all three points against Livingston.
Dundee, meanwhile, missed theirs and had to settle for a draw against Kilmarnock.
Plenty to get through on both sides of the street, including maddening VAR delays and injury worries at Tannadice.
Tuning in are Courier Sport writers Alan Temple and George Cran alongside ex-Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan.

Dundee United release the handbrake and Dee demand top dollar

United host rock-bottom Livingston ahead of their bottom-six campaign – and Jim Goodwin has promised attacking football.  
We posit how the Tangerines can take the handbrake off against opposition lower in the table – something Goodwin’s charges have struggled with, especially at Tannadice.  
Could we see a debut for goalkeeper Ruairidh Adams, who might or might not be slightly shorter than your average keeper, during the run-in following injury to Ashley Maynard-Brewer?  
The likes of Owen Stirton, Sam Cleall-Harding and Scott Constable could also be pushing for action.  
Alan has a Zac Sapsford prediction, while the panel pay tribute to newly retired ex-United ace Barry Douglas.  
Across the road, Dundee travel to Rugby Park knowing one simple truth: win and Premiership safety is all-but secured.  
However, it’ll be a testing task against a side boasting four wins from their last five matches – and showing real signs of life under ex-Dens Park boss Neil McCann. 
We discuss how Steven Pressley will cope with the possible absence of Tony Yogane, the definite absence of Ryan Astley and ponder whether scourge of Killie, Ash Hay, should get the nod ahead of Simon Murray.  
There’s also talk of what price tag Luke Graham should command and, with Rangers’ interest in the player increasingly obvious, where his future may lie.  
This weekend’s action is previewed by The Courier head of sport Sean Hamilton, Dundee United writer Alan Temple and ex-Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan.

Dundee let Hoops off hook and United’s Ibrox agony

For the first time this season, Celtic claimed victory in the City of Discovery – but they were made to work for it.  
Did the Dark Blues ‘have Celtic exactly where they wanted them’? If so, how did the points end up back in Glasgow? 
We spotlight an eventful afternoon for Ryan Astley, praise Jon McCracken’s interventions and ask whether the Dee are getting enough attacking impetus from out-with the wide areas.  
A day earlier, United succumbed to defeat against Rangers.  
Defensive deficiencies were again on show as the Gers claimed a 4-2 triumph, with Ashley Maynard-Brewer making a costly error before suffering a dislocated shoulder – what does the future hold for him? 
A similar question can be asked regarding Amar Fatah, who is increasingly establishing himself as one of the most dangerous wide players in the Scottish Premiership.  
And why don’t midfielders make tactical fouls anymore?! 
This weekend’s action is discussed by Dundee United writer Alan Temple, DFC writer George Cran and ex-Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan.

Dundee United face a testing trip to Ibrox – can they shock the Gers and derail their title bid?
They will be without Kristijan Trapanovski after news of his knee injury needing surgery. He’s out of contract this summer – will United keep him?
The same question goes for goalie Ashley Maynard-Brewer – will he stick around?
Dundee, meanwhile, have to wait an extra 24 hours for their own date with one of the Old Firm.
Celtic come to Dens smarting from their loss at Tannadice a fortnight previous – can the Dark Blues pull off a historic victory?
And will they look to keep Clark Robertson beyond this summer?

United shock Hoops as Dee fail to break Hearts

Celtic don’t like our wee street, do they?
Three times they’ve rocked up in the City of Discovery this season and three times they’ve been beaten.
Dundee United registered their first back-to-back home wins over the Hoops since 1991.
How did they do that? And who has been a game-changing signing?
Dundee, meanwhile, lost narrowly at table-topping Hearts.
What went wrong at Tynecastle and is Steven Pressley right that other teams are showing his jobby outfit more respect?
Alan can’t join in today but has kindly sent in his thoughts on Dundee United’s impressive win over Celtic.
So tuning in from home is host Sean Hamilton alongside Courier Sport writer George Cran and former Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos

Scotland snub for Dundee ace and United’s Rose-y future

Should Jon McCracken feel aggrieved about not getting a Scotland call ahead of Liam Kelly – as the guys talk “vibes”. 
What does the future hold for Fin Robertson at Dens Park, and what sort of player will he eventually emerge as? 
And we look ahead to a testing visit to the league leaders, Hearts, and point out some weaknesses that have emerged in the Jambos’ armour.  
Across the road, it’s been a busy week of transfer news.  
Lachlan Rose is set to arrive on a free transfer from Newcastle Jets, following fellow A-League standout Jesse Randall.  
Formerly a young tennis prospect, what will Rose serve up at Tannadice? 
We chew over the Craig Sibbald-to-Falkirk signing pictures furore, and tip one Terrors standout to be in contention for PFA Scotland young player of the year. 
And how can United beat Celtic? 
The Courier head of sport Sean Hamilton is in the big chair, joined by George Cran and Alan Temple.

Dundee derby DRAMA – what happened at Dens Park? And did Bear leave early?

Sunday’s Dundee derby brought drama never seen before in this famous fixture.
Dundee United dominated the entire 90 minutes – but somehow contrived to give up two goals and two points in the final two minutes of stoppage time.
What belief do Dundee get from this and how can United pick themselves up.
Plus Bear is quizzed on video evidence of him leaving Dens Park early.
And there’s plenty of chat about Amar Fatah, Jon McCracken and the late, great Gordon Wallace.
Tuning in from home is Courier Sport writers George Cran and Alan Temple alongside former Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos
