Dalby Discusses Second-Half Turnaround and Personal Impact

Following a goalless first half, questions arose regarding Jim Goodwin’s instructions that prompted the team’s second-half resurgence at Tannadice. Sam Dalby stated that the message was simply to “Just stay calm and keep going.” The team indeed continued their efforts, scoring three goals in the second half, one of which was the 24-year-old’s composed finish. Speaking to BBC Scotland post-match about his goal, Dalby remarked, “It was good ball from David [Babunski] to be honest, in behind the defence and sometimes that causes a lot of problems for teams, especially when they’re pushing for a goal. So, sort of just gambled on it and then once I was through on goal, it’s about just staying composed and putting it into the corner.” Since his summer loan move from Wrexham, Dalby has garnered appreciation from numerous United supporters, and he considers the transfer to be “positive” for his career. He further commented, “It’s been something that’s been positive for me, you know, the start to the season and our start to the season, really it’s all about trying to help the team get three points at the end of the day, and thankfully we did that.” Sandi Toksvig is featured alongside Gyles Brandreth, Lulu, Emmanuel Sonubi, and Alan Davies.
