Five points from six Premiership games. Six goals scored. Heavy defeats, promising performances, one brilliant afternoon at Rugby Park and a team that still feels like it’s trying to work out exactly what it wants to be.Ronny and Paul take stock of the season so far.Also on this week’s episode:🧡 The Warm Up⚽ The Next 90☕ Buy Me A Coffee🎤 Sold Out Live Show🎲 The Tanna-dice Test🌟 Beyond the First Team📚 From The Arab Archive🏁 Final Whistle🎥 Like, subscribe and click the notification bell on YouTube.☕ Support the podcast at buymeacoffee.com/dodefoxpodcast🎧 Listen now at dodefoxpodcast.com📱 Follow @dodefoxpodcast on social media

A red card at Fir Park, a dreadful opening half hour against Falkirk… and then Michael Forbes popping up in stoppage time to rescue the week.It’s been another eventful few days for United.Ronny and Paul look back at the 3-0 defeat against Motherwell where Manny’s early red card completely changed the game, before getting into a frustrating 1-1 draw with Falkirk at Tannadice.27 shots, 9 on target, 4 big chances missed… and it still took until stoppage time to find the net.Also on this week’s episode:🧡 The Warm Up🎙️ The Debrief😤 Good, Bad and Ugly⚽ The Next 90☕ Buy Me A Coffee🎤 Sold Out Live Show🎲 The Tanna-dice Test🌟 Beyond the First Team📚 From The Arab Archive🏁 Final Whistle🎥 Like, subscribe and click the notification bell on YouTube.☕ Support the podcast at buymeacoffee.com/dodefoxpodcast🎧 Listen now at dodefoxpodcast.com📱 Follow @dodefoxpodcast on social media

First of all, send our best wishes to Jim Goodwin as he deals with an ongoing medical matter.On the pitch… NOW THAT is a response.After 333 minutes without a goal, Dundee United went to Rugby Park and scored FOUR as Kilmarnock were swept aside 4-0.Manny ended the drought, Zac added a second, Will Ferry produced an absolute screamer and Jesse Randall rounded things off with his first United goal.Four goals, a clean sheet and A first Premiership win of the season. Oh and United’s first league victory at Rugby Park in a decade.Also on this week’s episode:🧡 The Warm Up🎙️ The Debrief😤 Good, Bad and Ugly⚽ The Next 90☕ Buy Me A Coffee🎤 Sold Out Live Show🎲 The Tanna-dice Test🌟 Beyond the First Team📚 From The Arab Archive🏁 Final Whistle🎥 Like, subscribe and click the notification bell on YouTube.☕ Support the podcast at buymeacoffee.com/dodefoxpodcast🎧 Listen now at dodefoxpodcast.com📱 Follow @dodefoxpodcast on social media

Another derby to forget.United were beaten 2-0 by Dundee at Tannadice as the difficult start to the season continued.That makes it three games without a goal, 46 shots without finding the net and 11 unanswered goals conceded since Lachie Rose put United ahead against Rangers.Ronny and Paul pick through another frustrating afternoon, six changes to the starting eleven, the mistakes that cost United and Jim Goodwin admitting the buck stops with him.We also ask the increasingly important question… Where are the goals going to come from?Also on this week’s episode:🧡 The Warm Up🎙️ The Debrief😤 Good, Bad and Ugly⚽ The Next 90☕ Buy Me A Coffee🎤 Sold Out Live Show🎲 The Tanna-dice Test🌟 Beyond the First Team📚 From The Arab Archive🏁 Final Whistle🎥 Like, subscribe and click the notification bell on YouTube.☕ Support the podcast at buymeacoffee.com/dodefoxpodcast🎧 Listen now at dodefoxpodcast.com📱 Follow @dodefoxpodcast on social media
