Jackie McNamara enjoyed a dream start to managing Dundee United by beating Sevco to reach the last eight of the Scottish Cup.
Three days after taking over the Tannadice hotseat the former Partick Thistle boss masterminded the exit of Ally McCoist’s highly paid side to give the home fans something to cheer about.
The gulf between the two teams was evident throughout the match with the Third Division leaders unable to live with the power and pace of goalscorers Johnny Russell and Jon Daly.
After ten games without a home win United got off to the perfect start when Russell slammed the ball past Neil Alexander with just 15 seconds on the clock.
The Third Division side were chasing shadows as United dominated the game with Russell and Gary Mackay Steven causing all sorts of problems for the visitors.
Russell smashed a shot off the crossbar in the 15th minute with United opening up the visitors defence at will.
The second goal duly arrived in the 35th minute with the Sevco defence once again carved open Jon Daly powered a header past Alexander from a Willo Flood free kick.
Before the interval the lumbering Ross Perry was replaced by Chris Perry with Ross Wallace, Kyle Hutton and Emilson Cribari earning yellow cards.
Despite having a two goal advantage United fell out the game badly in the second half but other than a 25 yard drive from Ian Black that flew past the post there was little to trouble the home side.
Eleven minutes from the final whistle the Russell and Daly partnership struck again with the Irish poking the ball through the visitors defence for Russell to poke the ball under Alexander into the net.
Sevco’s misery was completed in the last five minutes when Kal Naismith and Ian Black were sent off.

Sevco are complete thugs & Black has to be hit with a fine or lengthy ban for his disgusting antics walking off the pitch. My son asked me what his hand gesture was? I said he was insinuating the Dundee its fans were wankers,he asked me what’s a wanker dad? I pointed to Ally McCoist! My son just looked at me nodding!PMSL! OOH AAH!
Ha ha ha quality patter !
Nearly pissed my self reading this lol
Good old sevco, they keep notching up these world records- bookings and sendings off this week.
GIRFUY SEVCONIANS! COMEDY GOLD!
Shite then, shite now, shite forever!
Fat sally tells chucky that ibrox wont be big enough if they reach the last 16 of the CL , chucky says he’s not leaving til he hears the CL anthem playing over ibrox. could be a long wait eh ?
Doesn’t need to be that long a wait. If we turn up the volume full blast next week against Juve, I’m sure Chuckles will be able to hear the CL anthem wafting over the night sky from Paradise to I-brokes. Thats as close as he’s ever going to get.
WHAT IS HE ON? Classic man,pissin ma drawers here,i cant take any more ha aha ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Fat sally looks ill can see a break down ahead.
Hail Hail
At last…something to compare them with….
Instead of lording it over honest part-time footballers…the highly paid players of the Govan Club got a chance today to show what they could do..
on a more level playing field….
They showed us alright…they got HUMPED….
The gulf was there for all to see….
Maybe they and the sycophantic Scottish Media will now shut up and gie’s peace….
Oh and BTW…WE HUMPED the victors today not long ago…Shame they weren’t drawn against us….
Now that WOULD have been fun…
Puts Motherwell’s performance against them in the League Cup into perspective. Hang your head McCall
they wont allow them to play us yet cos the brethren could not hack a good doing,wait another 5 years!!

Lets be honest it could have been much worse for sevco on the card count,ANDY WALKER apoligist extrordinaiare he make a me sick!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA stupid zombies actually thought they where going to win they just don’t get it they might have a wage bill of a spl club but they have 3rd division players. Fair play to the united fans there in good numbers great result for Jackie HH
The establishments finest,what a joke,out played,out classed, ally asks mcdowell “whit do we do kenny” ? kenny shakes his head.
Will this cause social unrest?
Norris will have to explain to his masters,how could he? A
Newco really are a bunch of neds. And that wee rat that got sent off is an out and out thug .
Sally still to fat to fit into his C&A suit and brown brogues doesn’t even have the balls to be interviewed afterwards.
Sevco showed just how crap they really are today and have made a rod for their back by boycotting the game which will now haunt the zombies for years to come (if their still around in the years to come!).
The only Zombie game I have seen this year and it was comedy gold when utd started signing the cramberies tune Zombie i almost wet myself
This is a disaster for my fellow Sevconian Zombie squad. Even with 12 men on the pitch and Chucky Greens slavering rants at hame in front of his TV we still lose! Thankfully none of our drug addicted loyal supporters were not there to see us getting tanned by United. Jabba Traynor must be pishing in his over-sized pants as we speak. Hard to write moral raising guff when your new team is a complete pile o shite.
Roll on the 2nd administration scenario, cos we really are poor in all areas of the game.
Is Sally going for a world record of pie eating whilst getting knocked out of competitions pmsl ahaha,never mind Sevconians you can read your papers ( well maybe get a Tim to read them for you)in the morning about stadium expansions,casinos,hotels with heli pad,£30m war chests,Adidas contracts & 3 billionaires. All reported with DIGNITY! I dedicate this defeat to an old gun boss of mine…i really can’t stop laughing,I see your face & I’m close to pudding myself with laughter. GIRUUY ZOMBIES AHAHAH!
old hun boss
