The Courier reports that Dylan Tait has set playing for Scotland as his ultimate ambition after a strong start at United. Captaining the side with Ross Graham out, he described the role as an honour for him and his family, and praised the football intelligence of Lyall Cameron and Zidane Iqbal.

Supporters who spoke to BBC Sport after Saturday’s draw at St Johnstone liked United’s possession and attacking play, but felt too many chances went begging. Several said a proven striker is what would turn those performances into wins.

Aberdeen visit Tannadice at three o’clock on Saturday. The Press and Journal reports that Dons left-back Nesta Guinness-Walker calls a top six finish the club’s aspiration. Aberdeen are one point behind United after beating St Mirren three-one.

In the Women’s game, United drew nil-nil away to Hamilton yesterday. The point leaves them seventh in SWPL Two, with nine points from eight matches. It was their first clean sheet since a three-nil home win over Renfrew on the sixth of September. Their next game is at home to Gartcairn next Sunday, the twenty-fifth of October, with kick-off at half past three at Foundation Park.

In the academy, Rangers say their under-eighteens will visit Dundee United in the second round of the Scottish Youth Cup on Friday. The tie is at Foundation Park, with kick-off at half past seven.
