Ross: Painful but it'll spur us on v Celts

ROSS GRAHAM insists Dundee United must use derby dejection to drive them on to another result against Celtic.

The Tangerines’ five-game unbeaten run was snapped by Dundee, with Jim Goodwin’ side second best as their city rivals celebrated in front of them on their own patch.

Terrors captain Graham said: “It was tough.

“You never enjoy losing a game, never mind a derby.

“We can use that, what we saw out there, to fuel us and spur us on for Saturday's game.

“We will be looking to make amends.

“The players in there are just as disappointed.

“It’s always a hard one to take but we will use it as motivation for the Celtic game.”

Dee were the better team, their goal coming from Ashley Hay just before the break after a couple of defensive blunders.
