    Friday, January 18th, 2008

  • Debut - Celtic 0 - 0 Dundee United

    A battling performance saw Dundee United secure a morale-boosting 0-0 draw away at Celtic Park ahead of Sunday’s League Cup Final against Rangers at Hampden.

    Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

  • First Goal - Rangers 3 - 3 Dundee United

    United travelled to Govan without Andy Webster, as the terms of his loan agreement rendered him unable to play against his parent club, meaning Darren Dods came in alongside Garry Kenneth at centre half. Paul Dixon was also missing after suffering an ankle injury in the previous week’s match with Hearts, so Sean Dillon deputised at left back. Otherwise, Manager Peter Houston started with a familiar 4-4-2 line-up with Jon Daly and Damien Casalinuovo spearheading the attack.

    Sunday, March 14th, 2010

  • Last Appearance - Dundee United 2 - 1 Hearts

    United made four changes to the line-up that started in the defeat to Rangers at Ibrox, with Garry Kenneth, Keith Watson, David Robertson and Scott Robertson being replaced by Sean Dillon, Mihael Kovacevic, Prince Buaben and Jon Daly.
