Mr Meeker Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 I enjoy the banter with our neighbours from up the street, in the same way I can have a laugh in the pub or work when there's a deserved slagging on the go. There's times you have to suck it up as you dished it out in the past. This is our glorious moment. I think it might last a while though. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I'm personally not prepared to let it go without telling you all to gtf. Just like I'd expect you lot to do if I was posting on the Dundee thread. The difference is though you lot would probably do just that and stick up for your team. United supporters seem to be happy getting powered without offering any sort of comeback. It's rather depressing. A noble quest, sir. You will go down in United folklore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well said, the important thing is that we are Arabs and (thankfully) not Dees. Form is temporary, class is permanent… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArabFundamentalist Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 The biggest issue for me at the minute is still the goalie. Replacing him should have been the first piece of business done this summer. That fact it wasn't is a massive concern. I've already had the fear about Goodwin and this transfer window, so far, isn't helping alleviate that feeling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loemba90 Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 I think Newman will be in goals until we get a new keeper signed. Birighitti won’t be involved IMO, just be a bit of brinkmanship until they agree on a deal for him to leave. When we get another keeper in and he becomes third choice hopefully that will be the hint he needs! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Birighitti will be gone as soon they can find someone to take him and, eventually, if they can’t find someone he’ll be paid off. Can’t be starting the season with the keeper being booed from minute one and he would be. United have made some particularly thrawn decisions in recent years but surely can’t be that obtuse. Surely. Right? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArabianKnight Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 No they are deffo getting rid. He's basically gone already the club are doing pre season with him solely so he's fit and ready to move nothing else. Newman has looked exceptionally good in training btw and Parish seems to be a decent coach by all accounts. Feeling a bit more confident about Newman certainly, so much so if we get someone a bit more experienced for cover I'll be happy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely the fact were looking to bring in a keeper it'll be as a starter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's where I'm at, luckily for me only one Dee drinks in the same pub, and he's a good lad. And I think you are correct, our troubles may last a while, I'm usually quite balanced about managers but Goodwin hasn't gained my confidence........ (yet?). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainkev Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 (edited) Tbf the only howler that Newman was involved in last season in a competitive game* was the opening goal in the 4-0 against County, and Mulgrew was partly responsible in that cock-up too. The rest conceded in his brief run were mostly because he was hung out to dry by the defence. I still would prefer to see another keeper come in rather than stick with Newman purely because our only other alternative offers about as much protection as a traffic cone plonked on the goalline. *He may have flogged one in a friendly too.

You could find a real gem or you could find the next Sean Goss for example. Best thing to do was to get him off the wage bill asap as that will be the real drain on the club. Sean Goss is brilliant. Thank you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the keepers looked pretty engaged on the clip on the Clubs you tube channel. MB was conspicuous by his absence on it although he was there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
