Heard at the time from someone connected to United that following one of the league cup games Watt was on the team bus singing songs about Goodwin. He’s been punted from the team immediately since then so suspect it was true. 

Wow! Please tell me you don't really believe that story. He's clearly no the brightest lad but come on

It came from someone who was on the bus, don’t see why he’d lie but up to you what you believe on a football forum.

I guess you could argue Tony has 'downed tools' to an extent by coming back from holiday quite far out of shape.  Football just doesn't compare to a normal job so I don't think it's worth trying to compare them.

Tony Watt will get a nice job working for BBC Scotland and/or Sky Sports where he can mention his goal against Barcelona every few minutes. An absolute certainty.

This Barcelona goal thing seems to be more of an obsession with other fans than of Watt himself. Not sure I’ve ever heard him or anyone connected with him ever mention it.

Dundee United: Walton, Sevelj, Adegboyega, Gallagher, Holt, Ferry, Babunski, Sibbald, Trapanovski, Thomson, Van der Sande.

Substitutes: Richards, Graham, Moult, Odada, Middleton, Fotheringham, Cleall-Harding, Stirton, Ubochioma.

 

Graham, perhaps surprisingly, drops out to make way for Adegboyega. Holt starts at LCB. Sevelj fit enough to start at RWB and VDS over Moult up front as expected. Meshack on the bench (so Forbes drops out altogether?). Obviously no Watt or Grimshaw.

Watt could be be doing anything with his money. May have several incomes from property if he's been well guided during his career. Maybe he has his money in stocks that have built up through his career or maybe he just wants to spend time tending to his chickens.

Plenty other ways for Tony to be spending his time while the dollar comes in from Utd. Having one stream of income is something nobody should be depending on who makes the money he does. I doubt Tony will be too concerned with the thoughts of a few morons from East Angus as his worth builds over the next year.

Thank you.

 

Do you think your club are immune from situations like this? I would imagine this gives you more pleasure than anything your team do on the pitch. Slavering, bitter, ignoramus.

You seem upset. 

A moron like you probably wouldn't know where to start with investing their money. Nevermind. Hopefully Watt does and can happily sit back and let the pennies roll in from his employer. 

Thank you.

If they did find themselves in a situation like that they'd just go into administration, sack dozens of people, bankrupt some local businesses and screw the taxpayer. Yet again.

2 games where we haven’t been able to hold on for the 3 points, Docherty is a huge miss in this regard. There’s a lack of organisation when he’s not available and the goal we lost comes from 3 players going for the same ball which we fail to clear which leaves the defence totally out of shape. It would be good to get Doc back on the pitch but if we can’t rely on him fitness wise then someone else needs to step up and organise things on the pitch.

The director of football and a boy fae the Dolphin would leather him outside the ground.

Goodwin’s strategy (and thus signings made) for the last few months has been predicated on this 343 formation he wanted to go with.

He had to change it at half-time today as we were overrun in midfield, again.

Chances that he goes again the same way next week? 🙄

Recurring themes in his time at StMirren were we couldn't hold onto a lead, lost late goals and drew a lot of games.

He can spot a player though.

Makes no sense for the guy just to sit on the sidelines for the next year and take the money. That will only devalue his own self worthness as a player, any top club in Scotland will not want to put up with that sort of attitude and there won't be many clubs willing to offer him a deal anywhere close to what he's earning at United next season. 

If he moves out on loan then United will likely be paying anywhere upto 75% of his current wages you would think and then he gets a season to put himself in the shop window for his next deal. 

 

He won’t be going to any top club in Scotland - he’s won a watch being at Utd on this deal. However his profile guarantees a Scottish championship move regardless of time out and if he’s lucky a league 1/2 English team take a punt and pay him the same as you halfwits did.

50% of his (rumoured) wage is £2k a week - not one team in that championship is paying that for Tony Watt. If he goes on loan in Scotland it will be costing Utd 3k a week at best.

There’s a school of thought bouncing around some Dundee fans that a striker we bought from league 2 is suddenly our answer at RWB. It’s lunacy.

This blind faith that “Doc” - a player who has a chronic injury record and has never played a minute above championship level - is going to come in and completely turn your season seems to be the utd version of this.

Thank you
