Listening to commentary BBC usual bias again all about Utd  just as well we are a goal up

 

 

[KennySim93]

Sounds like we've been getting the ball a lot quicker today.  Much better!  Hopefully we can keep it up.

Get in!!

Come on Partick!

[crownjaggie]

Ian Vigurs ya beauty 2-0

[MuirtownJaggy]

Mon.... The Partick !!!!!!!

[ajmack88]

BBC commentators only just worked out that we can make the top 6 if Partick equalise. Top knowledge.....

[caley100]

Top six offski, never mind, with the shyte season we've had staying clear of relegation and hopefully playoff place will do me!

Great result today!

[lightwelter]

Solid result, Dundee United have been on the ascendency recently so an away win is a good achievement. Could have been more judging by the commentary. 

Gutted we won't be in the top 6, but let's focus on winning our own mini league and staying clear of the play-off place.

7 points above killie should be enough

So if we hadn't lost to that injury time sucker punch when we were going for a win v Motherwell last week, we'd have our top 6 destiny in our own hands v Hearts this Tuesday. 

[ICTRoughi]

Cracking win, just keep the momentum up lads and accumulate as many points as possible for the remainder of the season.

A lot of if and's and but's this season unfortunately. If a game lasted 85 minutes instead of 90 we wouldn't be in the bottom 6, but it doesn't, and we are. 

In some ways we've been a victim of our own success last season. I thought at the start of the season that top 6 would be a great achievement considering the number of players we lost in the summer. Taking into account that all our best players moved on in the summer and we lost a significant number of players to injuries this season, we're not actually doing OK. Overall, John Hughes is still doing a very good job in my books, but next season will tell us a lot more in terms of his ability to recruit and keep instilling his style of play.

Anybody no if there's been an announcement on when the remaining fixtures will be released?

[AlexJones]

Vigurs must have one of the best goal / assist ratios per game of any midfielder in the SPL. This from a guy who joined us out of the blue with no pre-season under his belt. Get him signed up.

...and just 1 or 2 more from all the others and we wouldn't have even needed to worry about the Hearts result :(

3 weeks if they can sort it out by then

[Robert]

Listened to second half. Great result. Vigurs goal sounded a cracker and he could have had another. Hopefully we kick on and ensure safety. 

I predicted 8th pre season, but 7th would be nice..

The next 'round' of games are in a fortnight, so I'd imagine they'd be announced early next week.
