*** Official Dundee vs Heart Of Midlothian Match Thread ***

[joondalupjambo]

If a game is on TV do they have to decide early on game day if on or not so the company broadcasting can set up or do they do that the day before and take the risk of a postponement?  No idea.

 

Cannae see it being off for heavy passing rain and sleet showers, which seems to be the forecast.

I'd like to see the 4-4-2 return. Don't think Chesnokov will start.

 

I'm torn between wanting to see Kerjota in there and just going for two wingers.

 

or having the more staggered midfield. So Kyzi provides the main attacking thrust down the left and we have the Altena overlap on the right, with one of our midfielders to bounce off

 

[JJ93]

I would like to see Kerjota. 
 

I want to see Chesney in some form.

Think your last one will be tomorrow's team with Magnusson instead of Spittal.

 

Hopefully Chesnekov on the bench.

[Fort Vallance]

It's a beautiful day up here just now. I know there's rain forecast but it would have to be a monsoon to put it off.

I suspect that also I think McInnes will want us to be fairly solid. I do think having six defensive minded players and four attacking players will give us a better balance but expect McInnes to be cautious in throwing Chesnekov straight into the team.

[Turkishcap]

Have my doubts Chesney will start but hey, if he shows up well at training who knows.

Answer is Del knows.

Dundee seem to have possibly, maybe slightly turned a corner losing only one from their last five and winning their last three. However this game is about us, we have to turn up and win now if we want to be in the frame at the end of the season. We had a great first half against Livvy then shat it after they had their first over the top punt second half. If we start like we did against Livvy and put a couple of chances away we should do OK if we don't it could be a sticky afternoon for us .

[Jambof3tornado]

Don't see a way that chesnokov starts but hopefully involved from the bench.

 

Don't see us playing 2 wingers but altena and kyzi will provide good width. Massively important we keep our noses in front in the league.

Amber warning for monsoon incoming...

[Lambert Simnel]

Honestly I would be very surprised if it wasn't:

 

                 Schwolow

Altena   Halkett  Findlay  Kingsley

           Beni           Cammy 

Magnusson                     Kyz

         Shankland    Braga

 

with Chesnokov to come on for Mags for the last half hour. 

 

Hardly an exceptional take, I know....

Agree with that team , depending on how the game is going of course but may see Braga may make room for Chesnokov in the later stages.

I’m hoping Kerjota starts too. I think Chesnokov will get the last 15-20 minutes hopefully. Although I think he’ll go with the same team that started against Livi. Other than Milne, of course.

[Macros]

Schwolow, Altena, Halkett, Findlay, Kingsley, Magnusson, Devlin, Baningime, Kerjota, Kyziridis, Shankland

Subs - Gordon, McCart, Steinwender, Spittal, Braga, Chesnokov, Kabore, Forrest

Just one striker?  As a 4-3-3, I guess?

Wouldn’t be surprised line up with that from KO. Plenty options from the bench. 
 

[dodedajambo]

Hey folks, has anyone got 2 spare tickets by any chance for the dundee game? Cheers in advance

Looks sold out on dfc website and their ticket office is shut today.

[Hertz21]

He’ll want Magnusson height I think but would be pleased to see 2 wingers and 2 strikers.
 

Now we have Altena I think we still get that option wide right without a winger infront of him  hence why Magnusson will likely start.

It’s now an amber warning for snow for Tayside from 3am to 2pm tomorrow as well as high winds.   Beginning to look more than a bit doubtful.

Still nothing on Milne?

Looking at the map the amber area appears to be north west of Dundee in the higher parts of Tayside which makes sense  Yellow in Dundee and in the east.

 

The footballing authorities I guess will want this played if at all possible so that they do not need to contend with any back logs and rescheduling of games.

 

As for the travelling fans, last thing to be considered.

[Debut 4]

Tayside is a big area.  Dundee specifically is still a yellow warning but it looks like mostly rain tomorrow.

If true and have heard nothing of substance to suggest it is then we would almost definitely have to play a 3.

No idea, but the possibility does highlight the stupidity of the "Kingsley will do fine" attitude in response to the Milne rumours this week.

 

I'd imagine Findlay or McCart would have to fill in at LB.

I was in Dundee yesterday and there is no snow at all. Only way game would be off is if there is heavy rain and affects the pitch but did they not get all that sorted after the carry on a year or two ago? 

I'm sorry you had to go through that.

I’m sure the Kingsley out rumour came out at the same time as the Milne out for the season chat

No so sure. Would he maybe just stick McCart in at LB?
