Podcaster on Twa Teams, One Street 🎙️

Queen of the South and Man U fan in whichever order is least painful 😭

Views are mine, hands off ❌
🚨TWA TEAMS, ONE STREET NEWS🚨

Sadly our host with the most, Tom Duthie, has decided to hang up his microphone at the end of this season🎙️

This week's episode is his last & we wish him all the best 💙

We'll be taking a wee break from recording but will be back before long 👍

Team lines at sunny Dens Park

Huge game - win secures safety, a loss doesn't bear thinking about

Clark Robertson is back in, Aaron Donnelly out of the squad entirely. Tiffoney out for Adewumi on the wing

Pitch looking 👌
May 14, 2025 at 6:00 PM
Team lines at Dens Park

1 change for Dundee - Adewumi in for Seb Palmer-Houlden

Portales continuing in midfield

No place in the squad for Garza or Chespi, both training on the Dens pitch ahead of the game. Both fit but not on the bench

FT Hearts 0-1 Dundee

What a win, massive 3 pts for Dee

Simon Murray with the winner, huge defensive performance, players leaving everything out there

And the fans enjoyed it too!
April 26, 2025 at 6:06 PM
Doc ringing changes for Dundee at Hearts

In: Cameron, Astley, Palmer-Houlden, Portales

Out: McGhee, Adewumi, Sylla, F Robertson

McGhee, Adewumi injured, Sylla benched is big call

4 cbs & a lb in that team, looks like a return to back 3 with Astley on the right

Scott Fraser!
April 26, 2025 at 1:06 PM
Teams at sunny Easter Road 🌞

It's a copy & paste job for both teams - no changes for Dundee after the St Mirren win, no changes for Hibs after beating Rangers

Lyall Cameron & Scott Fraser both trained this week but not ready to return

Sunday names on the teamsheet seems apt
April 13, 2025 at 12:35 PM
Dundee v Rangers

No Lyall Cameron for the Dee at the end of a strange week. Unsurprising.

No big surprise tho to see Fin Robertson in his place - Docherty likes Fin against the Old Firm

Otherwise same again after the derby

Koumetio back on the bench but still 2 goalies
March 29, 2025 at 4:36 PM
Getting ready for kick off - a semi-final spot at stake

Dundee fans filling up the away section, starting to make some noise 🗣️

Team lines for the big cup match

2 changes for Dundee - Cameron (ban) and Sylla out for Fin Robertson and Astley

Back 3 is back, bit of a surprise after improvements with a 4 recently

Looks like 3-5-2

Hearts without McCart, Lewis Neilson in for him
March 7, 2025 at 7:00 PM
Dundee v St Johnstone

Tony Docherty goes for experience in this massive contest at Dens Park

Carson back in goal, Shaughnessy in 1st start since April

Also in is Garza - Saints like to play so another ballwinner in midfield makes sense

Looks like Mulligan out wide in a 4-3-3
March 1, 2025 at 2:53 PM
Motherwell v Dundee team lines

Massive game for both sides - the Dee have to step up

They do boast a 100% record against Well this term tho

Changes due to injuries but will it be a back 4? Depends where McGhee is playing, I reckon he may be right-back in a 4-3-3
February 26, 2025 at 7:00 PM
Sunny day in Dingwall and a massive game for Dundee

Docherty makes 3 changes as Mo Sylla, Tiffoney and Donnelly drop out

In are Astley, Fin Robertson and Palmer-Houlden after his goal last week

County unchanged from the win over Motherwell
February 22, 2025 at 2:21 PM
Dundee v Airdrie - massive game for the Dee

Doc rings the changes - 6 in total

Big call in goal

Garza & Sylla out of the midfield, McGhee probably in there

Larkeche starts, Lyall Cameron back

Palmer-Houlden has a knock and misses out, Ingram missing for personal reasons
February 8, 2025 at 2:10 PM
Team sheet for tonight

McCowan on the bench for Celtic, Jota starts and new boy Schlupp on the bench

Two Premier League winners in the Hoops squad and a whole lot of cash spent

Dundee just can't be putting in a repeat of Saturday
February 5, 2025 at 7:15 PM
No Lyall Cameron for Dundee tonight

I'm told he's been carrying an Achilles injury & isn't being risked. He has travelled with the team though

1 Robertson in, 1 out - Fin in, Clark benched. Ingram at rb, Mulligan adding strength in midfield

Portales back & Shaughnessy on bench
February 5, 2025 at 7:05 PM
Lovely day for a game at Dens Park

Mulligan is back & there's a first start for Imari Samuels on the left. Fin Robertson and Ingram drop to bench

Larkeche, Portales & McGhee back on bench, taking it slow with Shaughnessy

Shankland back for Hearts - loves a goal against Dundee
February 1, 2025 at 2:11 PM
Derby day!

Cameron is back in XI but there's no Mulligan - he had flu at the end of last week. Hope was he'd be fit but obviously not

Expecting F Robertson to go to lwb & Ingram back at rwb

Larkeche not ready to return

Utd start Moult & Dalby - new boys Paton & Fiorini subs
January 20, 2025 at 7:11 PM
Team lines at Dens Park

Fin Robertson is fit to start after his knee injury, man in the news Lyall Cameron fit enough for the bench after flu

New boy Samuels on the bench, Ingram sticking at lwb

A full bench!

Plus a certain Luke McCowan in the Celtic starting XI
January 14, 2025 at 7:25 PM
Team lines at Dens Park

It's a new-look Dee line-up with Donnelly straight in, Cesar Garza gets a 1st start

Lyall Cameron is ill

Trying to figure out the system - Ingram may be at left wb

FT St Mirren 1-2 Dundee

That's a hell of a gutsy win from the Dee

Murray double earns a 2nd away win of the season with bodies dropping all over

McGhee & Koumetio lost to injury, Cameron and Ingram limping at the end and probably more knocks

Massive shift and a massive win
December 29, 2024 at 4:59 PM
Dundee fans enjoying things so far at St Mirren

'Simon Murray, he's one of our own' ringing out 🎶
December 29, 2024 at 3:34 PM
Teams for St Mirren v Dundee, complete with my spilt tea 🤦

No Portales after injury but McGhee shakes off illness to start. Palmer-Houlden & Fin Robertson back, Tiffoney drops to bench

McGhee dropping into back 3, Mulligan & Robertson at wb

Response needed from Ross County

Team lines at a soggy Dens Park for Dundee v Ross County

Adewumi and Murray return to the XI, Carson keeps his place in goal

Ex-Dee Jack Hamilton dropped to the bench for County

Looks like the same approach for Dee as Motherwell game - 3-4-3 with Adewumi and Cameron as No10s
