  1. From the FT report: ”Trump said in a legal deposition last year that he had about $400mn in cash. Yet, since his company is private, his finances are unclear. Some of the documents published on Monday by Trump’s legal team show that Deutsche Bank, one of his top lenders, had made drastic downward adjustments to his stated net worth and liquid assets in its own credit reports.” That last sentence is very revealing.
  2. We have averaged exactly two points per game with seven games to play. If we can keep that average until the end of the season we would finish on 72 points. In the last two seasons the league has been won with 67 points and 63 points.
  3. This is the press release from Capuano’s appointment in 2022. https://www.dundeeunitedfc.co.uk/news/7414/LUIGI-CAPUANO-APPOINTED-AS-NEW-DUNDEE-UNITED-CHIEF-EXECUTIVE.html This bit is significant: He will be responsible for leading the United Executive Team and all non-football parts of the Club. That seems reasonable given that he doesn’t have any relevant experience to lead the football parts. So in effect Goodwin has free reign and no one will question him when he makes f**k ups like he did last night. As an aside here’s a quote from him from the aforementioned press release: “My role as Operations Director at the Club last season allowed me to implement a number of structural and operational changes leading to increased direction and productivity throughout the Club.” Sound like management bullshitting for beginners.
  4. Who is Goodwin answerable to at the club? I’ve done an online search and cannot find an up to date management structure. Do we have anyone who does the ‘director of football’ role or equivalent?
  5. Can’t get upset by that, we deserved everything we got. When I saw the team selection (Docherty, Sibbald and Tillson all starting and no wide players) I thought it was inevitable that we’d get beat. Our ‘defending’ for Dunfermilne’s third was hilarious.
  6. The FBI informant who lied about Biden started doing so after being paid $600,000 by a company owned by Trump ‘business associates’. I am astounded by this revelation! https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/mar/14/company-paying-fbi-informant-trump-connections
  7. I don’t think there will be any sympathy for someone who lends the orange sex offender money then struggles to get it back.
  8. I’ve avoided this thread for some time now. The ongoing genocide in Gaza actively supported by both our government and our government in waiting is beyond awful. There have been worse atrocities in my lifetime but this is one where we are active and open participants. Nothing is happening behind closed doors, it’s there for everyone to see, yet our elected representatives offer only mealy mouthed platitudes.
  9. Haley dropping out today. Wouldn’t be surprised to see her as Trump’s running mate.
  10. Whilst I have no time for Galloway, seeing him handing Sam Coates his arse was thoroughly enjoyable. People should watch the whole interview and not just the clips. Sunak is a lost cause but anything that has any chance of pushing Starmer into a more responsible position on the genocide in Gaza is welcome. He won’t do so for moral reasons though he may do so for electoral ones.
  11. That’s exactly what we should be doing; they would complement each other. Goodwin seems unwilling to commit to a conventional two up top which, given our lacklustre performances of late, seems bizarre.
  12. Nicholas Watt is the political editor of Newsnight.
  13. I’m pretty sure that in determining these matters the “in living memory” rule is evoked. So unless Dundee can produce a 113 year old fan (with incredible recall as a baby) then their Scottish Cup win doesn’t count.
  14. It would have been David Dorward, former Chief Executive of Dundee City Council, who resigned during that financial year.
  15. As the following extract shows, even allowing for redundancy costs our wage bill still increased by about 10.6% at the same time as the football personnel was reduced by 6%.
