14 MINS: Penalty to Dundee Utd as Nelsen brings down Goodwillie in the area. The Dundee striker takes it, Robinson dives to his left to make a great save.

I am glad that I didnt make the trip after just learning that we have picked up 2 major injury issues with Nelsen and Samba, all we need now is McCarthy to get a kick and we are struggling to put a team out next Saturday.

No - according to radio report Samba was limping heavily with ice pack strapped to knee, Nelsen clutching his right thigh (hammy again?).

Bloody hell! Week to go until the City game, hopefully its nothing serious with either player.

Didnt need to play this friendly, and should realy have given the reserves a game. Could have Zurab and Givet, still not a bad combination. Worrying times though. Any more knocks, and we fooked!

Where's Givet? He wasn't involved in the Hibs-game either.

Would have liked to see us win our final pre-season game to take some form going into our first game of the league campaign. Its not ideal that we are getting beat, but whats far more worrying is the injuries we have picked up.

Pre-season is really not that important, although the lack of creativity during it is alarming and I hope Sam sees the need for a playmaker.

Overall i agree but you would expect performances to get better even if its only a small increase as the pre-season campaign goes on. With your final pre-season game you want to be getting close to being 100% ready for the new season. With a week to go Sam has a hell of a lot of work to do, especially with the attack thats been rather toothless.

It's purely about fitness at this stage, the only important thing is that the injuries weren't too serious. Next week has an importance on the footballing side of things, today wasn't about that!

Meh! 2-0 defeat is not good heading into the season. I know people think it's about the fitness but by now surely it should be about ironing out the things which didn't go right last season and during pre-season. They should be going into this game fully fit and ready to go.

Oh and the result also makes the people who slated Burnley for losing 1-0 to Killies look even more stupid.

Awful game and awful result.....thank god it was a friendly.

Next week will be fine because we will STOP trying to play football.

Once we get back to catapulting the ball at the opposition, we'll be fine.

Who's gonna play in central defense vs City if both Samba and the captain are knackered? Zurab and Givet? vs Robinhio, Tevez, Adabayor, Bellamy, Santa Cruz............
