Dundee United travel up to Inverness to take on Caley Thistle at the Caledonian Stadium this Saturday and hope that the weather won’t put the game off.

Boss Gordon Chisholm is under extreme pressure due to bad results this season and really needs a victory here.

It won’t be easy though, ex United man Craig Brewster is the player/manager at Caley Thistle and is doing a fine job and has turned Caley into a strong side.

Vital Quotes:

Dundee United manager Gordon Chisholm: ‘All the comments surrounding my job are just rumours and speculation, so that is how I will treat it,’
