Agreed but I’m tanning a slab regardless.

Sorry this has no doubt been discussed before but I can’t be fucked scrolling through the whole thread, why is that? Dundee West and East declaring on consecutive days too?

I’ll be honest, back in the day I was insanely jealous that Dundee had their own ZX Spectrum game.

That semi final where the big rolly polly goalie shitehoused our penalty takers - even as a United fan I kind of appreciated the audacity of that. Not to mention that that United side was an absolute shambles and would have undoubtedly folded against the Undead in the final, so for the greater good of getting it right up Sevco it’s not a game I particularly regret losing. Would be nice if we could win this one though.

Anyone listening to this on the radio, can we get an estimate of Willie Miller’s tears in litres?

Worryingly, Pawlett has been having a bit of work done on his house recently. Suppose he can easily commute to Perth.

Respectfully disagree.

Annoys me how McBurnie plays with his socks down. That look is for tricky wingers and mavericks only, not big cart horses.

A shock result for the Wee Rangers. And a great win for Brora.

Dundee United FC is pleased to announce the formation of a strategic partnership with Northern Virginia United FC in the United States. The NVUFC first team participates in the National Premier Soccer League and United Premier Soccer League, while their Academy will begin play in the USL Super Y League. The American club are owned by Dundee United Hall of Fame legend Brian Welsh and the exciting partnership will see both clubs share development, operational and talent ID processes. The partnership will allow the clubs to share visions and best practice and allow Our Academy players the opportunity to experience new environments and a different culture to enhance their development while also offering NVUFC players the opportunity to experience being part of the Elite-level Our Academy. As part of the partnership, NVUFC will undergo a rebrand that incorporates the Tannadice clubs famous tangerine colour and logo brand assets within their improved visual identity. Dundee United’s Sporting Director Tony Asghar said, “This is an exciting partnership that will benefit our Club with shared learning and cultural concepts alongside the opportunity to open other networks and opportunities for the Club as we grow alliances across the world. Working with Brian who is a DUFC Hall of Fame icon is fantastic as he has knowledge of our way of doing things and is an example of the type of player and people developed at United.” Northern Virginia United’s owner Brian Welsh said, “This is an incredible opportunity for us to partner with Dundee United. I know the history, traditions and more importantly the innovative and modern values and beliefs that have developed the Academy at United into the elite professional player development brand that it is now reputable for. We are a progressive and innovative club but we can learn a lot from the staff at Dundee United. This presents a fabulous opportunity for our young talent to step into the European arena through the Dundee United pathway. Likewise, I look forward to working and helping develop future generations of United players by sharing our expertise, environment and culture to improve them as people as well as players.” The partnership has already activated with key personnel meeting digitally and engaging in working groups. Footnote: Brian played 177 times for Dundee United as a centre-half scoring 14 goals including memorable strikes in the Club’s route to Scottish Cup glory in 1994 and a vital stoppage-time equaliser that helped secure the Club’s return to the Premier League in 1996. He moved to the United States in 2012 and since 2018 has been the owner of Northern Virginia United FC. In 2019, he formed the non-profit Northern Virginia United FC Academy that has teams from u11 up to u19 and plays in the Super Y League.

I aM fRog In coffeE.

Can anyone translate this for me? I’m too old to understand emojis. There’s a lot of **** lapping it up, which always concerns me.

Absolutely savage, I pray Micky doesn’t see this.

Loving the ad-lib banter from these two wisecracking jesters on Saints TV commentary, particularly the pie material.

Saw on Twitter we’ve won only nine games at Parkhead and eight of them were with Jim McLean as manager. The other would be Jerry Kerr in 67 I guess.

Dogshit again, get Rory Boulding on.

This fixture’s not the same since Jamie Langfield retired.

All good, bud. Not much to report. Keep on keeping on, ken.

How you doing, mate? Long time no speak. *apologies if you’re no Dee Boy.

I see Jim ‘Spencey’ Spence again saw all this coming but didn’t mention it until the thing that he saw coming actually happened. https://www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/opinion/jim-spence/1391645/dundee-united-robbie-neilson-jim-spence/

It’ll likely be a younger manager who is happy to work under Tony Ashgar, like Neilson was. Would be amazed if Tommy Wright is up for that sort of role, and equally amazed if United went for him.

Forgot about King, jeez, three year deal was it? Other thank Shankland he can help himself to any of his signings actually.

Quite funny really. Scottish Football is aff its nut. Pretty much nonplussed by this. Was never entirely convinced by Neilson, and suspect that’ll be the mood amongst most United fans. Hopefully he takes Pawlett with him.

Over 5000 season tickets now sold. Not sure what our highest ST total is (5500 maybe?) but must be on course to beat it.

“Therefore, Dundee United pledge that if three or more home games are held behind closed doors during Season 2020/21, those who purchase a season ticket they will receive a credit equivalent to 1/19th of their season ticket price for each match missed from the third match that can then be put towards either the overall cost of a season ticket or match tickets for the 2021/22 season. “ Hope we sign a sub editor next season.
