UNITED DETERMINED NOT TO BE BELOW PAR

4th December 2002

Looking ahead to tonight's SPL match away to Dunfermline, Manager Paul Hegarty was in confident mood about his team's prospects: "If we play the way we did in the second half versus Aberdeen, our chances of taking something from the match are good. It was disappointing not to take the three points last Saturday, but with the same attitude and commitment we should be causing Dunfermline some problems. Needless to say, our hosts are very strong opponents, currently third-placed in the League and particularly strong at home, so we have to approach this evening's encounter with full conviction."

On the selection front, Mark Wilson (pictured) is back from injury, whilst McCunnie is still out of action due to a virus and Gunnlaugsson because of a thigh knock.
