Queen of the South 3 Dundee 0, Palmerstone Park, Division One, 09/May/11

Dundee lost 3 nil today,but really the score did not matter too much. A big Dundee support travelled to Dunfries and backed the team for the whole 90 minutes and more.
Team wise goalkeeper John Gibson made his first team debut, and Graham Webster came in for Rhys Weston who pulled out late due to a injury.


I missed the game due to work so a match report Here

Dundee 3 Partick Th 2, Dens Park, First Division,


Dundee played their last home game of the season, and it  turned out to be a beautiful day in the sun. A big Dundee support came out, and were treated to some great football.

Team wise Leighton McIntosh was missing due to a hamstring injury, Connor Rennie came in and Nicky Riley played upfront as a striker. Not too much goalmouth action in the first half, l suppose Dundee missed having a main striker to link up their good play.

Second half and with Dundee shooting down towards the Bob Shankly stand, they started very well and got the breakthrough on 58 minutes when Nicky Riley done well and fed Craig Forsyth in to finish well with a well placed shot. A couple of minutes later and goal no two came along, from a Douglas throw to Harkins who turned his marker with ease, his sublime cross found Forsyth who's shot was saved by Fox but Fozzy was quickest to react to head home to send Dens wild with delight.

 
Minutes later and Connor Rennie was unlucky not to make it 3-0 but keeper Fox made a great save to deny the young defender. Soon after Thistle pulled one back when Stewart finish with a fine shot catching the Dundee defence cold. But minutes late Dundee got their third goal when after Forsyth was fouled in the box, the Partick defender getting a red card as well. Up stepped Matty Lockwood to blast home with ease. Dundee had a few more chances but could not get the fourth goal. Partick did score deep into injury time when Doolan at the back post, but the game was well finished by that time.

So a happy Dundee support when home to enjoy the evening with a few beers, I know l did. Well played Dundee today the whole staff deserved their lap of honour.

Dundee: Douglas, Benedictus, McKeown, Weston, Lockwood, Rennie, O'Donnell, Irvine, Forsyth, Harkins, Riley (Tulleth 86). Unused Subs: Gibson, Bartlett, Webster, Carnegie.
