The latest loss will have hurt the most as they fell 1-0 to rivals Dundee United at a packed Tanandice in the big clash of the cinch Premiership weekend.
James McPake will likely be frustrated with his side's second half performance. The Dens Park side were the better team in the first half and went close through Leigh Griffiths but were second best after the interval and couldn’t get their dangerous players on the ball in the final third. Ian Harkes goal gave their rivals the win.

Had the best of Dundee's first-half chances, but could not take them. Looked tired after the hour mark. Needs to be more sparky with his movement. Photo: Alan Harvey - SNS Group
