ONE of Queen’s Park and Dundee looked the far more likely to return to top flight football for much of a feisty, frantic affair on Friday - and it wasn’t the team that has played in it this century.
While a sickness-hit Dark Blues struggled to click through the gears at Ochilview, it was Owen Coyle’s Spiders who moved the ball around with a slickness that seemed out of kilter with the surroundings.
That was as much down to the bravery on the ball of Dom Thomas, Malachi Boateng and Alex Bannon - playing with all the forcefulness of a hurricane - as it was Dundee’s own sheepishness, but Gary Bowyer’s men did eventually build up ahead of steam.
