Harsh memories from their last trip to Perth are driving Dundee on and Docherty admits it's a big motivator.

Tony Docherty has admitted the pain of their last visit to Perth will drive Dundee on in their push for the top six.

“We were winning the game quite comfortably but at 2-0 we threw away two points. We are trying to regain those points we threw away. Even in the recent Aberdeen game, we showed that sometimes one goal is enough. That is something the team has learned. Dundee are three points behind sixth-placed Hibs but Docherty has insisted that top-flight survival remains the first objective. “It would be a huge step towards us retaining our status,” the Dark Blues boss acknowledged. “It is such a big game but St Johnstone will be saying that as well.

“I want to make sure that this club regains its Premiership status. That is our prime objective. If I manage to achieve that then I will look to the next objective. I won’t get drawn into doing anything on that unless we get into that position.”
