Louis Litt Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Serious question for a second, what's your views on the statement released yesterday by the Federation of Dundee United Supporters? Admittedly I know next to nothing about them and had only heard of ArabTrust until recently (are they the same sort of thing?) but there's been a couple of weird statements this year, and reading through the one yesterday it seems to say absolutely nothing new which didn't really require a statement tbh. Bar that, it says they suggest Thompson step down pretty much immediately, but then rules out fan ownership as an alternative. What are they suggesting for the mean tine? Looking in, it looks like releasing a statement for the sake of releasing a statement and feeling important about themselves. To quote the late, great Fat Finnish Mess. What's the fucking point? https://www.facebook.com/Federation-of-Dundee-United-Supporters-Clubs-137285816319849/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"We want Thompson to step down immediately". "Who do you want to replace him?" "We don't know". "Who is going to buy his majority shareholding?" "Why are you asking all these awkward questions?"

Pull My Strings Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Yet you just posted saying Arabtrust should have been buying up shares? Yes, the whole purpose of the Arabtrust is misconceived, likely in no small part because the individuals running the operation are clowns. Which bit are you struggling with?

It's a lovely idea, Granny, but unfortunately I have neither the time nor inclination. On a more realistic level I would be very happy to support the work of the trust if I felt that their aims were worthwhile and that they were an organisation which would properly and sensibly reflect my views as a supporter.

Swello Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Steven Thompson currently holding 1-2-1 interviews with United players at their future at Tannadice. A number of the first team players have been told they have no future at the club, no surprise It's obvious to everyone that Utd need a clear-oot and I'm sure there are some v obvious candidates - but even allowing for that, should that not be done in conjunction with the new manager? Has Thompson proven to be of decent judgement so far? I'm not a big fan of chairman playing real life Football Manager.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which bit are you struggling with? So they are clowns (I don't dispute that) but you want them to have more shares in your club - and therefore more say? That's the bit I'm struggling with.
