There has been the appointment of a new captain and a bit of off-field politics at Dundee United this week.

On the pitch, the Tangerines are now faced with a trip to play Ross County and manager Tam Courts is expecting a “frosty reception” in Dingwall.

Jim Spence and Eric Nicolson cover all the Tannadice talking points and assess a crossroads week for the other two Tayside Premiership clubs, St Johnstone and Dundee.

Also on the agenda are Arbroath’s promotion credentials and a feel good factor returning to Dunfermline just in time.
