DFC Round Up

Hibernian 0, Dundee 0, Easter Road, Premier League, 18-May-13

Dundee lost 1-0 in the last game of the season at a rain sodden Easter Road, From the highlights l seen the team played okay but lacked the killer touch. It was end of the season stuff and Hibs scored with 11 minutes to go with a good move and superb header which gave Steve Simonsen no chance in the Dundee goal. Earlier Ryan Conroy was unlucky with a volley which flew past the post  after a superb cross from Gary Harkins.

Dundee: Simonsen, Irvine, Lockwood, Benedictus, Gallagher ( Finnigan 63), Toshney (Riley (73), McBride, Kerr (Conroy (57), Harkins, Baird, McAlister. Subs Not Used: Baird, C Kerr, Nish, Stewart.


Dundee 2 Kilmarnock 3, Dens Park, Premier League, 11-May-13

Dundee played their last home game of the season, and it ended with a 3-2 defeat from Kilmarnock who got of to a flying start scoring  after only four minutes. It looked a poor goal to lose as McKenzie was allowed to run into the box with no big challenges being made. Dundee levelled when good play from Irvine and his perfect cross was swept home by Ryan Conroy.


Half time saw Rab Douglas say farewell to the Dundee Fans, the big keeper got a outstanding reception One which was well deserved and we won't likely see many more player play the amount of games for Dundee FC. 303 Games, 99 Clean Sheets and was able to pick up two winners medals with the club. All the best Rab for your future and thanks for giving so much to the club over the years.

Second half  and Kilmarnock scored twice to take control of the game, although Mark Stewart pulled one back with seven minutes remaining but the Dark Blues could not force a draw.

Dundee: Simonsen, Irvine, Benedictus, Gallagher, Toshney (Thomson (75), Davidson, McBride, Conroy, Harkins (Finnigan (70), Baird (Stewart (60), McAlister, Subs Not Use: Baird, Kerr, Nish, Barrowman.
