Do You Have Dab Mates?

[Riodee]

I do. Do I feel sorry for them? No I'm laughing my wullie off. What about the rest of you?

[Attilio]

Gloating. I love a good gloat in situations like this. Can it get any worse? Of course it can and lets hope it does.

A basket case of a club that was being held up as the example of a provincial, well run club less than 12 months ago.

tum te tum, or whatever.

I do, and from the 80's generation, am definitely in the minority, I'd say about 80% of my mates are DABS, piiiiiiiish!!

[Souppie1893]

My bro in law is a DAB aswell as his 6 year old son and I have been ripping the pish oot o both o them no holds barred 😂😂😂

[Boba Fett]

I don't have any DAB "mates" at all.. Mainly because I choose not to socialise with beasters and I don't stay in Kirriemuir.

[Derry Drummer]

To be honest I don't think its funny....

.it's fucking hilarious.

[Derrygunner]

Half of my family are dabs on my mums side.. I'm fucking loving it 😂😂 my granda never has a bad word to say about us so not so much a laugh at him but my uncles ect.. Are a different story always telling me when I was younger that I chose the wrong side and my reply was always 'nah there's something seriously wrong with your lot, to the core, nae thanks' glad my old man brought me up right to support the right side of the city!

I have a couple. Good lads away from football, but they think that the Arabs are Man United. In terms of size. Also, strangely never seem to have been to games that Dundee have won.

[Verbal Kint]

Mates no aquintences yes good to see that arrogance slowly disappearing.

Pleasing

[Dee_Dee]

I don't live in Dundee so it's easier to avoid them. I wouldn't have an Arab as a close friend as I look on supporting United as being a basic character flaw.

[Deefiant]

Got loads of good pals that are DAB's - most of them don't actually go along to games though (Derbies and cup semi's / finals apart of course).

Never stopped them commenting on our predicaments. In my experience they are generally not "football people". They can tell you when they won the league, they can tell you the name of the most popular players but start talking tactics or trying to compare Dundee players to DABs and they start getting a bit lost.

I can only really think of 1 of them I can have a decent football discussion with (laced with obligatory swipes at each other of course) and he is, in his own words, "heartbroken" at the minute - the rest of them seem to think it's a matter of time until they pick up and finish above us.

One thing I will say is that I always turn up in the boozer after a derby (if we have arranged it) and take my medicine - the 3-1 game and the 2-2 game none of them showed up. I liked that more than anything else.

We also have a WhatsApp group of Dees and DABs and the first reply from a DAB since Saturday came in this morning at 10AM - they really are bad at dealing with failure.

[JoeCovenant]

Not a mate - just someone who's wee lad plays with the same team as mine.

Was talking to his mate about how the Dabs are going to finish above us and that he had bet 'a mate' £50 to that effect....

Must have money to burn!
