Surely there must be a promotion clause. United’s then chairman must have realised that up to that point he and the board had shown little or no ability in choosing the right person to be the manager. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuine question. I'm surprised at the number of comments from fans from a variety of different teams, accross our multitude of theads just now, slagging us off for not taking things too well. I'd be surprised at any real fan taking the events of this season (never mind the last 3), happening to their club well. I'm happy we're all quite cross tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If truth be told I don’t think there would be as many comments if it weren’t for the fact that the response of so many United fans seems to be along the lines of ‘Dundee used to be worse than we are’. A genuine acknowledgement of where it went wrong with no attempts to deflect how bad a situation your club finds itself in would be more appropriate I would suggest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew very little else as a lifelong Dee.But some of the DABS comments about "our rightful place " etc encourages mockery . Ok my time as a Dee on this planet could have been timed better but these things always come in cycles . It's just most dayglos want to start the cycle in the 80s 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the amount of input you lot have had in our threads over ther past 3 years, I am surprised that you have not spotted the multiple references and acknowledgment from us, of what has gone wrong at Tannadice, and where we have pointed the finger of blame.... never at you lot. The problem is, that the level of banter coming from you Dees will naturally have an effect on people who will circle the wagons and strike back. Whatboutery is a fact in football and life, and unfortunately for you, your history gives us plenty of ammo to fire back with, however relevant to not it may be to our current situation and however justified or otherwise it may be. Also, naurally, when the present is not looking so rosy, people have a tendency to look to happier times in the past, and we did have plenty of those, especially in the 80s. My reckoning is that the vast majority of Arabs on here are well clear on our position, and there is a lot of tongue in cheek, which has riled people who maybe have not picked up on it,but also huge levels of self effacisam on our part I would say. Again, if people were taking all this well, I would be far more worried. Edited May 13, 2018 by MacArab 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee have finished 10th and 9th and have finished no higher than 5th (once) since the early 60s. I suppose it's all relative. As I've said before, they'd be delighted to finish 9th in League Two, as long as United were 10th. It is all they care about. Until their club achieves something of its own, they will always be the Fun. You are aware Yenited have only ever finished higher than 3rd once in the entire history or Dundee Hibernian and Dundee Yenited....

Reverend Maynard Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 This seams like the place to be compared to the other 2018/19 thread so I am officially making this my home for next season. Hopefully once Mike Martin et al have negotiated with the plethora of agents and lawyers at Tannadice this weekend we will get a bit of news tomorrow with regards to player departures and (hopefully) a managerial departure (although I've got a horrible feeling Laszlo will still be in a job). Popped in to see the old boy today and caught a piece in the papers about the chairman’s statement- the piece said that long time assistant to laszlo, Werner Burger was due to join him at Tannadice. Either excellent misdirection from our chairman, or a firm indication laszlo is here for next season.Also an interview with “united star” ( boak) Stuart Murdoch, extolling the virtues of Lazslo. I like the quote “ I’m sure he knows exactly what changes he wants to make”Well I’m glad you’re sure Stuart, because the rest of us fucking aren’t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
