Dunfermline Ath 2 Dundee 1, East End Park, First Division, 30/March/10

Dundee dropped three more points at East End Park last night. The gap is now 4 points which is big given the games we have left. The first half was very poor from our point of view, as The Pars totally dominated. They took just six minutes to score when Gibson score from close in, then in 34 minutes they scored again when Bell scored a cracking goal from 30 yards. Dundee failed to create anything of note in the first half.

Second half and Gordon Chisholm made three changes with Higgins, Shinnie and McKeown coming on for Hutchinson, Paton and MacKenzie. With hart moving back to right back. We did open brightly but we could not make it count until the 90th minute when Malone headed home on the 90th minute.

We wish Pars keeper Greg Paterson a speed recovery after he broke his leg in a clash with striker Ben Hutchinson, it looked a bad one, but totally accidental.

Dundee: Bullock, Paton (Shinnie 45), MacKenzie (McKeown 45), Klimpl, Malone, O'Leary, Hart, Kerr, Harkins, Griffiths, Hutchinson (Higgins 45) Subs: Forsyth, Soutar,
