Popular Post Dee Man Posted August 2, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 2, 2021 (edited) The Dundee United head coach has quickly written himself into Scottish football folklore as already having spoken more pish than any other manager in the history of our game, having overtaken the previous holder of the title - Ian Cathro - following his post match comments against Aberdeen yesterday. Courts quickly strode into contention for the title shortly after his appointment in June with talk of, "Harnessing and redirecting the energy attached to this football club", and, "The players are being very responsive to our ideas and we're fusing a bit of commonality in what we're trying to do". When asked about signings he replied with that age old cliché, "We're operating in a complex environment with so many variables", as well as, "We are a very fluid club in terms of how communication flows so I have a very good understanding of the signing targets and their profiles". Since then his interviews have been littered with corporate jargon shitetalk buzzwords, like scalability, turnovers, frame of reference and other nonsense like that, however, his post match comments yesterday had even fans of his own club admitting that the guy is an absolute space cadet. Please feel free to add his mad comments as you hear them, which should be roughly every time he opens his mouth.

wearedarkblue87 Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I'm not just saying this because I'm a Dee but it's absolute torture listening to his voice. Waffles the biggest pile of rubbish all the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East Coast Warrior Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 We're five games in and I'm just skipping the interviews. They'll be absolute gold to an outsider but to a United fan they're a total minter. He's so out of his depth it's almost harsh United have put him in that job! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realmadrid Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I first heard him as we drove down from Dingwall on Saturday. It was like listening to a bad book of management cliche's 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He appears to have bullshitted his way in to what is quite a lofty position in Scottish football somehow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 "one of the key reasons for appointing me was i bring sustainability" "the players are scalable" I've only seen one interview with him, 2 mins 35, and he fitted these two gems in. I think he might have meant "continuity" in the first one, from the context. The second has me puzzled though. I'm thinking Ant-Man technology? Maybe for a subbuteo league? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee-FC92 Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 When mentioning talking shite it's always a laugh to think back to Darren Jacksons guarantee of United survival the season they ended up with a pathetic points tally and relegated at the home of their neighbours infront of a record low derby away attendance. Guarantee of their survival when they were rock bottom Madness. Hopefully Tam Courts inspiration this season from Mr Jackson himself. Thank you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardle is Magic Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Looks and sounds like a second-hand car salesman. He’s either thick as shite or thinks everyone else is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 If Courts is going to wind up Funsters enough that one of them has to start a thread about him maybe I’ll have to reconsider his suitability. OK I’ve reconsidered; he’s shite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His "about" bit isn't top bad, but gets horrendous by the end. Extensive global recruitment? Aye 'cos Kelty Hearts were fair struggling to put a team on the park when the ACN & the Asia Cup were on. Don't even start me on that second sentence, when are United signing Dilbert & the Pointy Haired Boss to quantitise their synergenistic fulcrum to leverage tangible benefits to all stakeholders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 This needs merged with the corporate bullshit thread on General Nonsense IMO. He strikes me as the kind of guy that knows his accent makes him sound like a jakey, so he reads a thesaurus to try and use the most intelligent sounding word he can. A bit like a real life Methadone Mick, minus the methadone and living under a bridge. Was there not someone else in Scottish football like that a few years back too? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
