Dee Man Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 I thought Harkins had signed that reduced money contract extension. Maybe no. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild theory, but I'm bored, maybe it's like a John Terry situation and Harkins side has let it leak out. Harkins is offered a new deal on reduced terms and told that if he doesn't take it, he's not in long-term plans. Harkins is unhappy with the money offered and puts out publicly that it'll result in him leaving the club. That means that Hartley will be asked about it directly and be under pressure to solidify his status at the club. Hartley will know that he's a popular player and a good option to have and in turn put pressure on the board to up their offer. Otherwise, Hartley just genuinely believes that he isn't a good allocation of resources due to how many attacking players we have and wants the money spent elsewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiderDee Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 I think we should replace him with that Liam Walker who played for that Imps team against Celtic. Very confident on the ball and won't break the bank like Mallan probably would 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chomp my root Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 2 hours ago, Ludo*1 said: Very true although I think in certain situations it could hurt us. For example, I think both Ziggy Gordon and Paul McGinn are better than Cammy Kerr (For the time being at least) and perhaps if he was a little more 'patient' (That's maybe not the best word for it.) we could have a stronger squad right now. That said, I don't know the exact details of what's going on as they could have been ripping the piss - just my view from the outside. My thoughts were that there's the potential for some kind of personality thing, it wouldn't have to be a 'clash', just a manager maybe letting his views of a guy get in the way, same as every walk of life. I'm not passing this off as anything other than a possibility, not trying to stir up anything, I haven't got a clue and its close season so the mind wanders. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Disappointing to see we've only sold 3000 ST's so far. Despite all their schemes, for United to be in the league below and still 1200 ahead (I expected them to be ahead but not by that much) is a tad embarrassing IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping we can get a decent boost before the season commences, and if you're swithering on whether or not to get one, hopefully Nelmsy's plans get you buzzing for the season ahead: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, we can only really compare to last year. If we sell more than the previous season, it's good business and we are on course to according to the statement put out. Think we should step back from the United comparisons as much as possible. They've had 10 ridiculously successful seasons (their top 6 record was incredible), consistently reached cup finals (winning one), made regular appearances in Europe and also beaten the Old Firm on occasion. In that time, we struggled against part-time teams and been a laughing stock with our operations. If we can keep building on our playing squad and maintaining stability - the time will come where we're matching sales. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've got to remember Income per capita is higher in Angus than it is in Dundee. Also, a lot of United fans will be excited about the prospect of seeing their team win a few games this season! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moo Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 I'm paying my season ticket monthly this year as I didn't want to stump up the £350 all at once due to other things. Still can't go as much due to going back to playing Saturday's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
