I read it very carefully but its nonsense. So if we don't win the 'must win game' v Celtic for example what happens?

You are saying that every game is a must win but some are especially must wins - whatever that means.

Nope. What I'm trying to say is what's the point in going in with the aye a draw will do when it won't. To make you happy then Utd game is a must win then rcfc & cfc are not cause there better than us and we should accept defeat but the Motherwell game is a must win. Tell me what nonsense about being positive attitude towards a game? But then again if I went the other way in saying we're going to get pumped by utd and Motherwell I'd be classed a doom & gloomer.

I didn't say your positive attitude was nonsense - it's to be admired. But you now agree every game is not a 'must win' so fine.

For me there is a spectrum of scenarios - its not polarised. It's not about positive v 'doom and gloom' or 'must win' v 'doesn't matter'. I absolutely agree there are some fixtures where we would anticipate that we are more likely to pick up points than others and want to target them; but with 13 games to go and with most of our bottom six peers to play twice there is nothing going to be decided on Saturday (although a defeat might see some Arabs disagree).

I'm sure everyone hopes we win.

Get plenty of crosses in on top of that keeper with Tag and Devlin on top of him and we should be fine - worst keeper in the league!

Not only is every game a "must win", every game is a six-pointer!

Saturday is more a must not lose game than a must win.

An Accies win & a draw between Killie & Mwell would be best for us.
Hopefully been a good 2 weeks in training & all available players fit and raring to go.
Can't wait for Saturday.

WTF.......

for once I've got to agree...... :lol:

don't let UTD win and their mini revival will be knocked on the head as soon as its started ( because , let's face it THEY NEED to win , a point and no gain on us or Killie does them no good ).

According to Canning its a Cup Final. If that's the case we will get beat if his Annan disgrace is anything to go by.

This is a must win game..................... if we are to get 3 points before Sunday. ;)

Think MC will stick with 5 at the back but hopefully we have an alternative to Lyon who has struggled with the neither full back nor midfielder position out on the right. Means we give up a man in the middle again but MC seems determined to do so after the multiple goals conceded in Dec and Jan.

Other than the 'planned' absences of Daz and jesus we seem to have all others available but United are reported to be suffering from a flu bug. I still think if we let them play then that's what they will do and would rather we fight it out in the middle of the park rather than in our penalty box. MC's comments seem to suggest Morris up front to start.

A first home win since September would be massive for the team and the manager.

Billy Mackay for me is the only individual player who stands out.

Dundee Utd players are rotten. There should be no threat from them. C'mon canning's red and white machine

We didn't try to win a home game versus the worst team in the league in what MC was must win. We will take the point but he will now try to get a nil nil draw in every game which is pretty pathetic. Canning doesn't have faith in his players or himself. Oh and it was never a penalty
