His attitude's been spot on since he's came here, doesn't let the praise get to him and continues playing his football. Definitley not got a bit more bulk looks like a seven year old.


He fights like a lion on the park and that's good enough for me.
His family has settled in Dundee too so that helps.

Aye - he did very well for us last season after a VERY shaky start. He got sent off on our first game of last season v the Mutton Molesters and then, when he had served his ban, he got sent off again in his very next game for the reserves thus leading to a longer ban!

He took a bit of time to bed in but he became one of our best players last season (alongside Hunt, Gomis and Robson) and even score the goal voted in one of the polls as goal of the season (a snorter versus St Midden at Courtney Love Street)

Out of his depth in The Prem I can understand because if he was anywhere near good enough for that level he would not be with United but he is top class for us little teams.

He wants to stay with us (bizarrely his family like the area) and we are happy to keep him so a good deal for all.

Oh - and on another note - congratulations to Annan Athletic for getting elected to the league. It is made even better for two reasons....

1. They are near neighbours of Gretna, whos' "faithful" fans will be even MORE sick to see a rival doing so well on the back of QOS getting into the UEFA Cup.
2. They beat an Aberdeen team in Cove Rangers in the final ballot. Always a treat to see an Aberdeen side lose.

The only downside is that I now have to visit Annan so that I can say I have been to all senior grounds in Scotland. I have been to Cove several times in the past but never to Annan.

Isn't somewhere over Stranraer way? Girl I used to work with was a Stranraer fan and we looked at the logistics of getting to one of their games without driving. Basically we'd have had to set off Friday to get there for 3pm Saturday, it's that godforsaken.

It is apparently 8.5 miles from Gretna so you are in the right area (i.e. South West Scotland) but a fair trek from Stranraer methinks.

That said, Stranraer is a fair trek from anywhere!

Sorry to disappoint you chief


The sending off in the reserve game didn't lead to a longer game as it was only a second booking but if it was a straight red he would have been banned.
IIRC Flood's second sending off was the day after Christian's sending off at Rugby Park. Floody's sending off was even more bizarre getting sent-off for taking a quick free-kick.

Unbelieveable scenes!!

Smart ar$e



What I meant was that he missed a league game then the pointless (and frankly baffling) sending off in the reserve game kept him out of first team action a bit longer. I just worded it wrong.

Bad start to pre-season mystic eddie. One of our players has apparently broke their foot whilst another player has suffered a shoulder injury. Not good

I was at the Tannadice Open Day the other day and the full first team squad were there training so I reckon we will be OK.

Noel Hunt however has signed for Reading today for a tasty £600 grand.

At least the new Arab Sand Dancer scored two yesterday v Dunfermline and Feeney nailed a hat-trick v Raith on Saturday!

Three days to go till the Barca friendly. Do you want me to get you a programme as a gift and send it down LS?

Congratulations to Annan Athletic who won their first ever league game today coming from behind to beat Cowdenbeath 4-1 and top the embryonic 3rd division.

Oor refs deserve **** all. They are dreadful.

However, on a lighter note, the Road to Hampden starts up here today as the first round of the CIS Cup takes place. I am off to enjoy the delights of Recreation Park Alloa for a clash of the titans between the mighty Wasps and Elgin City.

It should be a richt humdinger.
