I missed the Dundee derby last Friday because of work.
Within 24 hours however a rather wonderful video appeared online that, more than any football video I have ever seen, made me feel as if I was there.
Filmed by a young Dunfermline supporter called Ben, it’s worth 15 minutes of your time, even if you don’t like the game.
And to those who query and occasionally mock the 800-mile round trips I make each season to watch a team I have supported since I was ten, here’s your answer.
The match starts around five minutes in but watch from the beginning because there’s a Gregory’s Girl feel about the introduction.
Scottish football, bloody hell.
