Some of the goading from the Hibs fans that day left thousands of Rangers fans with hurt feelings and dented pride. Uncalled for IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also their women and children were frightened by the nasty Hibees. Terrible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifespud Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 What an absolute pile of shite. What’s more if you’ve a brain in your head then you know it’s a pile of shite. I really hope your current owners don’t f**k you over; that’s happened too often in recent years to supporters of your club. However, maybe you need to consider what their game plan is and if they really are as altruistic as they are suggesting. Which bit is shite GD. Was ET bad for United and ST good? I’m confused. I’m not saying the Yanks are altruistic I’m just saying that there is no evidence to suggest they’re a shower of c***s either. I’ve already stated earlier that running the club at a constant loss is worrying - something United fans do seem to have difficulty understanding mind you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Thomson got United in to a huge amount of debt. He was well intentioned and a real fan but the business brain that had made him a wealthy man stopped functioning once he took over at United. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK now that we know what you think about Eddie Thompson’s tenure at Tannadice give us all a good laugh and let us know what you think about Stephen Thompson’s time in charge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have often explained this over on various Dundee United threads, the proper place to discuss that in detail. However since you’ve asked I’d say it was better than the Marr brothers time in charge of Dundee. Far better. Far, far better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juantwothree Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Love how fans of teams that have no fans (St Johnstone and Hamilton) and teams that have just seen their chairman stand down because they have been an utter shambles for nearly 3 years and seen him pocket how much on the back of selling players(United) have a say on our finances and how our club is run. Bottom line is we want to be a top 6 club, what club doesn't? And if it means running on a loss until that happens I'm sure it's a risk any fan would want to their club to take. The sale of Jack Hendry and potential add ons will make up for losses in the next financial year but if the finances are going to Improve the football and more importantly the home form must improve to get people back to Dens because in the past two seasons our home form has been nothing short of fucking embarrassing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Run the club into the ground to simply be a top 6 club? Nah, don't recommend it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin_Nevis Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 ST has been a decent chairman tbf. Hopefully he's able to trouser the dosh from the sale of Gussie Park as some sort of recompense for being associated with that fucking shambles for the last few years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like most United fans I know you appear happier talking about football matters from years ago rather more recent events. That’s entirely understandable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re the 1st Arab I’ve heard or read having a pop at Eddie Thompson. Looking in from the outside I always thought he left his son in a c**t of a position regards Yenited. Keep hearing the phrase “Eddie will be turning in his grave “ but as soon as I mention it was him who ran up the debts at the dabs the dayglos I know immediately change the subject. As a side issue I hope he achieves his global sporting ambitions Edited March 3, 2018 by Yenitit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the owners are doing is hardly running the club into the ground, the marrs and melville done that and it doesn't compare in the slightest. Striving to be a top six club nowadays imo isn't as risky financially as it was say 10-15 years ago, not many clubs have total idiot owners like they did back then. The majority of owners now are proper business men not con men and charlatans 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How anyone can think their club is well run when a volunteer is able transfer a million pounds to a random caller is beyond me. That’s the epitome of mismanagement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Marr’s ran up millions of debt - ST has ran up millions of debt. The Marr’s appointed a shite manager - ST has appointed at least 4 shite managers. The Marr’s drove our club into Administration - ST, hmm......TBCI suggest it’s not as clear cut as you say and events are far from over at Fundee United. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harry94 Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 I'm very sure that if this stadium goes ahead, United will end up moving in tbh.United have lost ownership of Gussie and will very likely lose Tannadice too. Either of those or Dens in isolation isn't worth much but if you've got potentially three big sites, there's maybe some sort of economy in a residential development. Overnight, it could give Thompson a way to exit with a couple of million. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said where are all in the know people on here , didn't we have people who said they had seen the plans and spoke to Bob the builder ? And why are we speaking about United ? Yawn Are you getting in the know mixed up with people who went up to the ice rink to see the plans? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
