Dundee Round Up....................

Dundee 1 St Johnstone 3, Dens Park, Premier League, 29-September-12

Dundee lost again at home this time to St Johnstone by three goals to one. By match reports it could have been more and judging by the video highlights manager Barry Smith will not be happy with his defence. Perth saints scored first when Tade scored, soon after Dundee levelled when Ryan Conroy scored from the spot after Martin Boyle had been fouled. Craig put the St Johnstone ahead again with a fine finish. Second half and Saints made sure of the points when MacLean scored the third killer goal.

Dundee: Douglas, Irvine, Lockwood, Conroy, Toshney (Benedictus (60), Davidson, McAlister,  Boyle, Kerr, Baird (Riley (52), Nish. Unused Subs: Baird, Gallagher, Easton, McBride, Milne.

Celtic 2 Dundee 0, Parkhead, Premier League, 22-September-12

Dundee went to Parkhead to play Celtic and in the end lost the game 2-0. Dundee should have scored but both Colin Nish and John Baird could not compose themselves to finish. Rab Douglas then made a superb penalty save saving Brown's spot kick. But Mark Hooper put the home side ahead just before half time. Then Celtic made sure the points were safe when Wanyama shot home from 30 yards with the help of the post. Dundee did not create a lot  with Celtic scoring at vital times in the game.

Dundee: Douglas, Irvine, Lockwood, Benedictus, Davidson, Conroy, Kerr, Baird (Riley - 71), Milne (Boyle - 66' ), McAlister, Nish. Unused Subs: Baird, Gallagher, Easton, Webster.
