Not as mental as Willo Flood playing a Cup semi for Utd v Celtic the day before he signed for them. And then that game going to penalties, and Willo taking one knowing if he scored it meant he might miss a cup final. And then him scoring. And then everyone else also scoring so it went to something like 10-10 and he had to take another one and he missed this time. Now THAT was mental. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArabFC Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 3 hours ago, Pull My Strings said: What we really need, ahead of striker even, is a right sided centre back. I'm not against the concept of Ross Graham. He's a solid enough back-up centre half at this level but he's terribly one footed and really looks out of place on the right side. This always strikes me as weird; there are countless right-footed centre-backs across the globe playing as a LCB and nobody ever bats an eyelid, but left-footers on the right never works? It shouldn't matter a jot. If he can't play there it's because he's not good enough, not his foot preference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loemba90 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Yeah think they’re decent additions for where we’re at. Would like a solid centre half in with Gallagher out though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Moult ok for Friday? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. The spine of the team would be adequate in the premiership or at the worst decent back up players. Would likely see a good few additions though to prevent sliding straight back down.. hopefully. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 (edited) The club has managed to make a loss of £2.4m in the 2022-23 season. Yip, no kidding. https://www.dundeeunitedfc.co.uk/news/8206/ANNUAL-REPORT-AND-FINANCIAL-STATEMENTS-FY23.html I hope Ogren doesn’t walk away anytime soon as I cannot imagine anyone else would be crazy enough to fund this financial shit show. Total wage costs increased in the season by 18% yet we were relegated. It defies logic. Full details to aid in the tears of despair (or joy). https://www.dundeeunitedfc.co.uk/uploads/tinymce/DUFC Signed Accounts 2023.pdf ETA - I love this bit of wishful thinking - “Finally, the board are confident that despite the difficulties of 2022/23, we remain on course to achieve the long-term aim of being a sustainable and leading competitor within the Scottish Professional Football League.

The club owes the money to him though doesn’t it, not to a bank or HMRC, or a face painter? He could call it in I suppose but I don’t see how it could be raised, so he could only get whatever a fire sale would raise and his asset would be gone. Can’t see it. If he wants rid he’ll need to take a haircut, and someone to shoulder what’s left. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
