stumigoo Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 We now don't have a league game until the 23rd of February and by that point St.Mirren will have played three more games than us. It will be a strange three weeks (with the only football our inevitable pumping at the hands of Aberdeen). Edit - Before then Livingston have to play both Dunfermline and St.Mirren.

It does seem strange that you've still not got dates for any of your three re-arranged matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we should forfeit the games. Keeps a healthier goal difference if we keep it to 3-0 defeats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reverend Maynard Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 With such a gap I'm hopeful Shabba can figure out what the strongest first team looks like and make a strong push for a clear second place finish . Given our injuries , that will be a relative "success". It will now out weigh the total clusterfuk this season has been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing compared to the arrogance of United fans around Christmas, who were all confidently predicting they would leave us trailing, only Morgan would get in their team, etc etc. The difference between our arrogance and yours is that we have a reason to be arrogant.

Demented Zebra Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Genuine question have you Guys given up hope of the title ? There is still the chance of catching us loose to Livie and at your home plus we have yet to beat Morton. which we have not done this season . Do you still think it can be done ? I'm happy but at times feel we play too deep then again our subs bench is stronger than the years following Saints first game 1967 think United were in black & Whilt back then. Just curious?

It's clear the rest of the league are putting in less effort against The Maureens too, due to the financial benefits Dundee United bring to the league. The only team that will be allowed to catch you is Livingston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilbur Posted February 4, 2018 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Laszlo is a clueless pr1ck, totally out of his depth, not a clue about Scottish football. Stephen Thompson is to blame for making such a bizarre appointment. He must act immediately and sack Laszlo. Otherwise Dundee United face a bleak future or a very short future.

The only team that will be allowed to catch you is Livingston. Of course, you're totally right...St Mirren are only where we are because all of the other clubs are lying down to us! I'd love some of whatever you've been smoking! As for the financial benefits, I fail to see where you're coming from. Why would the other clubs in the league benefit from a team who's auditors left last year due to the untenable position; who's assets are being held by numerous holding companies and have multiple loans secured against them; who have very few liquid assets and have relied of loans for day to day cashflow; have only a few players who aren't on short term deals or loan deals (no money to be made by having a fire sale); and have spent outside their means ever since they came down from the Prem, to the point they posted over £1.5 million loss last year. Add that to having a playing squad who have no coherence and are to reliant on players like Flood who are past their sell by date, and a manager with no tactical understanding at all and it doesn't bode well for a club who are "financially robust" (according to Thompson). I hate to see a club skirting close to administration, as I've been there when St. Mirren needed the stadium deal to survive, but United need to get rid of the "We're still the sixth biggest club in Scotland" mentality and accept the reality of the situation, you're a championship club and can't afford to keep throwing money about like you're top six in the big league. They need a wholesale clear-out (board down to the players) and start building from the bottom up. With a fanbase like you have you've got the best possible backing for a fresh start. My only reservation is that by moving all the assets to holding companies the club are already trying to insulate themsleves in the even that administration happens, and I don't see the rest of Scottish football being too forgiving after the SEVCO scenario.
