He was probably far too young and inexperienced to be a manager back then. I can remember a young manager getting sacked after 4 months or so , his name Dick Campbell who has done not bad since then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point. Fox's appointment at Cowdenbeath probably gave him a good foundation to learn from that experience. Clearly it's went in favour for his development and fair play and good luck to him at Dundee Utd. Big club who are currently underachieving. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be right. Personally, I don’t like him. He was standing up the back of the terrace 2/3 years ago , presumably to scout on loan players in the game. He was sniggering away like a wee gimp to his mates at a few of the Cowden fans going tonto at the ref/opposition. A swift warning and a few stares later he kept himself to himself. Ironic as he was a car crash at Cowden and thinks he can come to central and laugh at the locals. Definite cheap options at the DABS as they have severely overspent. I hope he’s sacked by the spring. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Pit_Owns Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Surprisingly Fox's policy of signing ex-Livingston players (Burton O'Brien, Gary Glen, Craig Sives, David Robertson, Shaun Rutherford, Dale Carrick) and playing strikers at centre back didn't work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. Utterly useless for us. I like the statement from DUTD, "I have no doubt this coaching team will bring much-needed fresh and innovative coaching and game models to Dundee United". Really? They are talking about Fox and Crawford here. They will take them down, if they are there long enough that is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular adult admission seems to be £8 and £5 concessions. Their wiki page suggests only 44 seats(!) which could well be taken by officials and maybe season tickets holders. That might be less seats than even Bonnyrigg had last season. I've been to a few Belters games and the seats tend to be used by auld gadgies and folk with mobility problems rather than officials so I can't see any problems in getting one other than a suggestion you turn up early. Incidentally you've reminded me of a Tranent v Meadowbank pre-season friendly 30 years ago. We'd just signed John Coughlin from Newtongrange Star and he was playing Anyway there was an old lad in a bunnet standing on the terracing and I thought "That's nice, an old gentleman watching his local team" Coughlin put in a crunching tackle and out of the mouth of the sweet old gentleman came the words "COUGHLIN YA BIG NEWTONGRANGE C*NT!" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually thought Nish was unlucky. I think with just a little bit of better luck he would have been ok. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
