If there’s no signings by tomorrow then I’m going to hide Tony’s fork and knife. That will get his attention.
They're already in the Tyncastle cutlery drawer, he's currently trying to get hold of some new ones, possibly a brand we've not heard of, and probably only for a shot.

That poster isn't Asghar, and has nothing to do with the club. I'm surprised nobody on that site has had the savvy to look back at the poster's history, he used to write in opposition to the board at Tannadice, and, after a break, reintroduced himself as an ITK type fully supportive of the board.
I think that, as in all forums, there does appear to be a whiff paranoia or conspiracy theory with that username. Wasn't aware of the history of that user.
As a casual reader of that site, itnis funny to read the reactions to that user.

I could be wrong mate but I’m sure he’s been over there since the international break finished. Guess we’ll find out soon enough!True. According to a poster on Tekel Towers who posters there suuspect is Asghar has said Gogic has signed. But who knows. The signing is a big baldy boy, and it was taken last Monday
To be fair it could be McNulty with a shaved head and a bit of stubble!!!

I just thought last season's looked a bit more energetic; had a lot more pizazz.
ETA. It's not important. Just passing the time since we seem to be more concerned with signing up a large constituent part of the FTSE Aim All Share instead of players.
Maybe this new announcement regarding Kairos Sports internal communications app is so that the media team, management team and recruitment teaam can all be arranging new signings efficiently, clearly and quickly without errors!

I have no opinion on Eriksson - unlike some I can't actually form an opinion until I see them play.
The point was fairly bloody obvious - on the balance of probabilities, given that Benji is one of the best keepers we've had in years, whoever follows him has big shoes to fill. Therefore, its wishful thinking that the next guy will be as good if not better.
I hope Eriksson is fantastic.
That's fair. Yes it is wishful thinking. Pedigree wiise, previous career to joining United Eriksson is at a higher level than Siegrist was when he joined, how he'll play and improve we don't know at United, only those that have seen him in training and watch Swedish football will have any idea.
As I said it wasn't aimed specifically at you, but some of the shite being spoken by folk trying to say they are ITK over Eriksson is ludicrous, nudge-nidge, wink-wink stuff, andnis the same nonsence said about Niskanen and others in the past.

Wishful thinking. There’s a reason Benji got a 4 year deal from Celtic - he’s pretty good.
And yet you expect a keeper you’ve never seen play to be better?
Lets ignore the cap - remember the Japanese lad?
I don't think anyone is claiming CarlJohan Eriksson will be better, he may be just as good, he might not be but his track record and history say he should be a decent keeper.
There does seem to be an amazing amount of wind and pish that has been spouted about him though. We've heard so farWe've signed a dud
There are reasons he isn't playing
United are trying to offload him already
Remember the Japanese lad
Easy to answer those. Yes there is a reason he hasn't played, it's because Benji was here. We expected bids for Benji last summer hence Carson signing. We knew Benji wouldn't stay, so we signed one of the top performing keepers from Sweden's top league, a current Finalnd squad member to settle in, play understudy to take over when the top spot was vacated.
Lost count of the number of players over the years that have similar "in the know" stories put out, that they are poor, Not up to the job when no one has seen them play.
He might be good, he might be great, he might be rubbish, can he be seen playing before he is written off?
Now not saying that's exactly what your doing, but your post allowed me mention a frustration I have over some of the. Comments about players we sign & how it seems to spread with no qualifying additional info to support it.

I didn't get from your post that you were talking about him being/not being a fan, just that his only connection to Dundee was being a youth player at Dens.
Carry on...
No worries, was probably badly worded anyway. @Ludo*1has linked to an interview where Ross has explained being a Dee, so as they say learn something new every day!

It comes from Jack Ross himself:
Survival of fittest as Jack Ross plots St Mirren's escape | The Scotsman
OK, thanks for that, I stand corrected
. Did wonder how he was a fan. Easy to see how a fan might not manage a club they support though. Might think with the heart not the head, take things too personally & put themselves under too much stress. Some may be the opposite l, but easy to see why.

That would amount to a pretty significant link I'd say.
It is, has no relevance as to whether he's a fan though. Hundreds of players play youth football for a team from an other town than they are from. Doesn't translate that they would be a supporter. He might be, but the "he's a Dundee fan" I've not seen until he was linked to the job at Dens.

Where does this he's a 'Dundee fan' thing come from?
I played youth football with him for a couple of years and don't recall him being a Dee.
Never seen any link with him and Dundee othher than him playing for Dundee as a youth. Unless of course coming from Falkirk becoming a Dundee fan while a youth player was more palatable than following Falkirk.

I've seen some folk say he was offered lesser basic terms with a big appearance bonus.
Most likely made up nonsense though, surely?
You would like to think so. He can't have been a big earner to begin with.
According to "the player" he expects United to receive money, United expect to receive money. Its only Hearts and those journos speaking to Hearts/Neilson's agent that say otherwise.
If it is the case Hearts aren't due any money its a major failing on United's admin side of the business. I don't see it though, its basics.

Actual load of shite.
As long as we have offfered Neilson a contract before 60 days of the expiry of his existing one, on the same or better terms and for at least a year we are due a fee.

No they wont, contract offer was too late, he leaves for nothing
Only person I've seen suggest that, other than you, is Barry Anderson. The contract was offered in February. Unless there has been rule changes that is within the time frame.

My guess would be close to what they paid up front for him. Was that not about £300k?
ETA
Not saying it's likely, but would United not just be a case.of Beerschot not paying the full fee? They paid an initial low figure, there would be instalments then the add-ons etc. Insituations like this,as you've said in the previous message, all that would be written off by United and. We'd just get the player.
They wil want that from a third party to cover sell on fee and other clauses/instalments to United.

I actually don't mind Harkes. There is definitely a player in there, not sure if its a confidence issue, that you start to see him doing well after a few games that things have come off for him. We did miss him when he was injured.
