What they're saying

"
Having watched some English Premier League games on TV it's easy to see that they pay less and less attention to the fans. On the subject of derbies, United were well beaten by Dundee last weekend and manager Jim Goodwin is under pressure for a result at the home of football. Killie must take advantage but will need to tighten up in defence if we want to take the points.
