Twa Teams, One Street: the football podcast that’s as obsessed by Dundee FC and Dundee United as you are!

Dundee are enduring zero luck on the injury front. Following Simon Murray’s ACL injury, the devastating news has emerged that Fin Robertson has suffered the same fate – and tears flowed at the Dee’s training base. We also have updates on the fitness of Joe Westley and Ryan Finnigan and ask whether the Dark Blues could be forced into the free agent market. And there’s a deep dive into Dundee’s summer business as we ask whether the club were right to turn down £500,000 for Joe Bevan. At Dundee United, we reveal how the Tangerines will be maintaining match sharpness ahead of their free weekend and have fitness updates on Mehdi Merghem and Will Ferry. We also delve into the Terrors’ work in the transfer market – including why Michael Forbes is their signing of the season. And some of the major questions posed by the squad building are addressed, such as: Are there enough goals? Is there enough depth in midfield? Loads to discuss as host Sean Hamilton is joined by Courier Sport writers Alan Temple and George Cran and ex-Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan. NOTE: There was a technical issue in the second half of the Dundee United section – if it sounds like everyone suddenly got a cold, it's on our end, not yours!

Dundee lost the game and lost three players during a galling defeat at Hearts. The team chew over the late collapse at Tynecastle, including two major VAR calls resulting in a penalty for the Jambos and red card following a “stupid” Zan Besir challenge. And why the upcoming break could be ideal for Steven Pressley and his squad. At Tannadice, there’s a deep dive into the debuts of Lyall Cameron and Zidane Iqbal – and the engine room conundrum it gives Dundee United boss Jim Goodwin. We pick the bones out of a dismal opening 20 minutes from the Tangerines again Falkirk, and then laudable response from United as they rescued a 1-1 draw. What went wrong? Then what changed in a contest that swiftly became “Dundee United v Scott Bain”? And we analyse the Jesse Randall penalty claim that so infuriated United. Loads to discuss as host Sean Hamilton is joined by Courier Sport writers Alan Temple and George Cran and ex-Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan.

Midweek football means immediate reactions on Twa Teams, One Street. There’s plenty to discuss but not much of it positive. Dundee United had a tough night at Motherwell after Emmanual Agyei’s early red card – was it the right decision from the ref? And what happened after that? Dundee, meanwhile, struggled to impose themselves on St Johnstone at Dens Park but then threw away victory late on. What isn’t working for the Dark Blues right now? Plus it’s deadline day so there’s some transfer talk too. Loads to discuss as host Sean Hamilton is joined by Courier Sport writers Alan Temple and George Cran and ex-Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan.

What went wrong for Dundee against Hibernian? That’s the question following a 2-1 defeat at Dens Park, during which the visitors dominated large swathes and had control of the midfield. Did some of this season’s star performers like Ethan Hamilton and Drey Wright enjoy a rare off-day and was Nathan Lowe interfering with play for the Hibees’ opener? We also assess what to expect from St Johnstone. United, meanwhile, saw things finally click in the final third as they battered Kilmarnock 4-0 at Rugby Park. There is praise for the likes of Mehdi Merghem and Pan Camara, and some mystification regarding how Neil McCann set up the hosts. With transfer deadline day approaching, what is the latest on Will Ferry, Vicko Sevelj and the Tangerines’ plans for the final days of the window? The centre-back pairing of Bert Esselink and Michael Forbes get their share of the spotlight. And how United’s trip to Motherwell represents a contest against the sort of flowing, attacking unit the Terrors would like to be. Twa Teams, One Street tackle all the talking points with The Courier head of sport Sean Hamilton, Alan Temple and Graeme Finnan. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos

Dundee United will seek to bounce back from derby disappointment at Kilmarnock – a ground where they’ve endured a decade of league misery. The team chew over the Tangerines’ bid for Brad Spencer and whether it could be a busy final week of the transfer window at Tannadice. We discuss why it is too early to write off new arrivals – especially when coming from the other side of the world – after a slow start. And at the very other ends of the age spectrum, there is Lorenzo Sassetti and Sean Dillon chat. Across the road, the mantra is ‘make hay while the sun shines’. Is Sunday the PERFECT time to face Hibernian? Bradley Fink is tipped for a starting berth against the Hibees as George cautions us what NOT to expect from the big striker. And there is the latest on Matai Akinmboni’s impending arrival from Bournemouth as we delve into the youngster's family tree. Twa Teams, One Street tackle all the big with Courier Sport head of sport Sean Hamilton, George Cran, Alan Temple and Graeme Finnan.

The bragging rights belong to Dundee following a 2-0 derby triumph over Dundee United. After his sensational opener, the team ask: has Drey Wright been the Dee’s best signing of the Steven Pressley era? There is praise for Ryan Astley’s defensive dominance as Pressley’s tactical instructions fall on deaf ears…no harm done. And where Simon Murray watched the game from as the victory is dedicated to the Dark Blues’ injured skipper. United, meanwhile, were left licking their wounds and ruing a performance of ample possession but little penetration. Did Jim Goodwin get his team selection WRONG and could Zac Sapsford be the answer to their goal drought if given an opportunity through the middle? The Tangerines now face a huge trip to Rugby Park on Saturday as Goodwin seeks to revive his side’s fortunes. Twa Teams, One Street tackle all the big with Courier Sport writers George Cran and Alan Temple, alongside ex-Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan.

Dundee exited the Premier Sports Cup on a painful afternoon in more ways than one. Captain Simon Murray left the field with a potentially serious knee injury and there’s a nervous wait to learn the extent of the damage. Did that effect the Dee display in Aberdeen? We discuss the increasing need for reinforcements ahead of next weekend’s derby with United and why Steven Pressley was not surprised by the defeat. Across the road, United are reeling from their second successive 4-0 defeat. So why is Alan peculiarly positive about the display against Celtic? We chew over whether the Hoops second goal should have been disallowed, Will Ferry’s new contract prospects and the debuts of Kevin Ciubotaru and Abdoulaye Yoro. Loads to discuss as host Courier Sport writers Alan Temple and George Cran are joined by ex-Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos

It’s League Cup knockout time! Quarter-final places are at stake but big, big tests lie in wait for oor twa teams. Dundee United face the daunting task of Celtic with their £11 million striker Kasper Hogh flying high after a hat-trick last week. So what should the Tangerines gameplan be? And what can we expect from latest signing Abdoulaye Yoro? Dundee, meanwhile, are heading up the east coast to face Aberdeen.

Dundee swept aside abject Aberdeen with ease at Dens Park. The team discuss the outstanding contribution of Joe Bevan and the journey of Steven Pressley from meme to messiah. There’s also transfer news for the Dark Blues, with George revealing that they are running the rule over the Matai Akinmboni. The relationship with Bournemouth is certainly becoming a topic of conversation… Meanwhile, Dundee United are licking their wounds after a 4-0 defeat against Hearts. We discuss a defeat characterised by poor goals conceded and a lack of cutting edge on the many, many occasions the Terrors managed to work the ball into dangerous areas. And did Jim Goodwin go too early with his attacking alteration? On the transfer front, is Kevin Ciubotaru a replacement for Will Ferry? And when will Abdoulaye Yoro officially be a United player? Sean Hamilton is on hosting duty, joined by Graeme Finnan and Courier Sport writers Alan Temple and George Cran. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos

Dundee did themselves proud at Celtic Park but ultimately left Glasgow pointless following a 1-0 reverse. George is back from his holidays in time to analyse the Dee’s Premiership opener, including Joe Bevan’s bright display on the flank. What’s next for the speedy winger? And was Steven Pressley’s decision to go with Owen Goodman between the sticks Pressley’s BIGGEST call as boss of the Dens Park outfit? United, meanwhile, started their campaign with a 1-1 draw with Rangers. There is a lingering sense of frustration following a game that was there for the taking – but plenty of positives from the performance. The guys discuss a fine United goal, what Jesse Randall brings to the team – in quality and tactical intrigue – and Emmanuel Agyei’s terrific display. We chat about Will Ferry’s future amid Anderlecht interest and the fitness of Rose, Bert Esselink and Darion Naamo. Alan Temple is joined by George Cran and Graeme Finnan for this week’s episode.

It’s 10 new arrivals for Dundee United. Whether it’s a Perfect 10; only time will tell. We discuss Daniel Bennie’s signing on loan from QPR, the likelihood of him facing Rangers and what other business we can expect from the Tangerines. There’s chat about Emmanuel Agyei’s form and the team take a deep dive into Dylan Tait’s journey, given the classy midfielder is likely to lead the Terrors out against Rangers. And why is Alan tentatively confident about what appears to be an onerous first four games? Across the street, surely there is defensive cover imminent as the Dee green-light Aaron Donnelly’s switch to Dunfermline. Indeed, Steven Pressley wants another ‘three or four’ signings, so what positions are the priorities aside from centre-back? Owen Bevan is backed to stand up to a major test at Parkhead, while we chew over the butterfly effect of Imari Samuels’ injury absence. And could Monday be the right time to catch the Hoops undercooked? With Sean Hamilton and George Cran both away on their holidays, Alan Temple in joined by Graeme Finnan and Iain Collin for this week’s episode.

Dundee swept Clyde aside 4-0 to tee up a Premier Sports Cup last-16 clash with Aberdeen. It was described as ‘fatigued and laboured’ by Steven Pressley. Iain Collin, standing in for George Cran at Dens Park, analyses that assessment. We discuss the first glimpse of what Alan Forrest will bring to the Dee, and the other HUGE selection calls the Dark Blues have ahead of their opener at Celtic Park. And who will be between the sticks at the home of the champions following the signing of Owen Goodman on loan from Crystal Palace? Meanwhile, Alan was in Salford to watch Dundee United lose 3-2 in a thoroughly watchable friendly against the EFL League Two title hopefuls. Just how worried should United fans be by the first two goals conceded, and the echoes of last season? Especially ahead of what is now a baptism of fire to start the campaign: Rangers, Hearts, Celtic, Dundee. And we chew over the Iurie Iovu vs Bert Esselink selection question. Lorenzo Sassetti has put himself in the picture to become a Premiership record-breaker on Friday night, while we spotlight the other youngsters who have lit up the last few weeks for the Terrors. There’s also praise for Sam Cleall-Harding and Owen Stirton, who are both on fire at the start of their loan spells, and should be targeting a STARTING place at United next season – not just being part of the first team squad.

Dundee United’s Premier Sports Cup campaign hangs in the balance despite a fine 4-0 win over Arbroath in midweek. We pick the bones out of that triumph, including Lachie Rose’s burgeoning momentum and Zac Sapsford’s blistering start to the season. Lorenzo Sassetti is now the youngest ever Dundee United player, aged 15 years, five months and 12 days, so we chat about the potential of the Italian kid and teammate Cohen Leiper, 16 – and the biggest question facing youth development. On the transfer front, Will Ferry is on Celtic’s radar – as he obviously should be – and United have held talks regarding Abdoulaye Bayo. For Dundee, Fin Robertson scored a screamer, but it wasn’t enough to claim a win at Ross County as as “evergreen” Brian Graham helped the Highlanders secure a 1-1 draw and penalty kick triumph. Did the Dee’s homegrown midfielder do enough to earn a regular place behind the striker? Kieran O’Hara has pressed his claim to be Dundee’s first-choice keeper, but Bear reckons there is still plenty of work to be done in the transfer market. The Dark Blues must get back on track against Clyde on Saturday. The Courier head of sport Sean Hamilton is joined by Alan Temple and Graeme Finnan in our Meadowside studio.

Dundee United are closing in on signing No.10 of the summer. The team chat about what to expect from Philadelphia Union left-back Phillipe Ndinga, who is expected to join the club in the coming days. The Congo U/20 international will provide competition for Will Ferry, who was back in the Tangerines’ team on Saturday and produced a splendid display against Arbroath. There’s also focus on Julius Eskesen, Bert Esselink and why United need to hit the goal trail when The Spartans come to town. Across the road, it was an afternoon to forget for Dundee keeper Harry Sharp against Everton. Graeme Finnan, formerly a fine keeper with Lochee United and Dundee North End (among others), assesses an error-strewn showing – and whether there were any positives to take from the visit of the Toffees. And is there a hint of Luke Graham about Charley Oosenbrugh? Alan Temple is joined by Graeme Finnan for this Monday’s episode. You can also see us on YouTube at youtube.com/@TheCourierUK/videos

Dundee United lost 1-0 at Montrose thanks to Ross Graham’s howler – how bad was it against the Mighty Mo? What does it mean for skipper Graham? And which forgotten star is making a case for a comeback? While United made hard work of things on the east coast, Dundee were making light work of things in the south. They smashed Annan 5-0 with Charlie Reilly stealing the show once more. How did new signing Zan Besir get on? And what is going on with Aaron Donnelly? In the studio alongside host Sean Hamilton are Courier Sport writers Alan Temple and George Cran and ex-Tele Sport editor Graeme Finnan.

Competitive futba is back – and that means so is the Monday Twa Teams, One Street. We have plenty of goals to talk about, some stunning ones too.

The season kick off is upon us – can Dundee and United navigate their way through the League Cup group stage? United start at Stirling Albion on Saturday – is Will Ferry going to feature? And why it’s less of the United nations at Tannadice. Dundee, meanwhile, are very much short of bodies – most notably at centre-back. Will they have any signings in by the weekend? And what is going on with Zan Besir? The A-team is on duty with host Sean Hamilton joined by Alan Temple, George Cran and Graeme Finnan.

George is in Hungary with Dundee and is being kept busy. We discuss whether Billy Koumetio’s move to Charlton Athletic was a shock and how Luke Graham’s impending switch to Stoke City could unluck a future mega-payout. Who is impressing in the Dee’s warm weather camp, and will they be swooping for any of their trialists? Plus, we spotlight the Dens Park prospect who could ‘be like a new signing’. And there’s tales of George’s Budapest joyride and how his phone ended up in a fridge. Back on home soil, Dundee United have completed signing No.7 with the arrival of goalkeeper Jordan Amissah. Could he realistically challenge Jack Walton for the gloves? What positions are the priority for the Terrors now that the goalkeeping department is fully stocked? We also have the latest on Will Ferry’s future after the Tangerines accepted a £1.7 million offer from a club in Czechia, with the Ireland international not currently part of pre-season training as a result.
