dundeebarry Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Just received a fax from man-in-the-know Jim Spence there, apparently Davie Dodds has packed his trunk and is making his way to the circus that is Tannadice with a determined look on his terrifyingly hideous pus. Whether this is to take up a role as manager or resume his playing career is unclear at this point. Davie still plays 5-a-sides with his pals once a fortnight, and given the level United are operating right now he and his fat drunk mates might feasibly make the first team. The rumour mill grinds on. It's hard to ascertain much in the way of truth during these troubling times, particularly when I neither know Jim Spence, own a fax machine or have any verifiable knowledge of Davie Dodds' five-a-side habits. There's no smoke without fire. Good luck, United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GraemePaynesSocks Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Jim Spence @JimSpenceSport 50k compensation for Tommy Wright. @dundeeunitedfc would be daft not to talk to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest Saints Fan Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Absolutely no chance wed only accept £50k he is contracted until 2017! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizfit Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Maybe add another £250k to the compensation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GraemePaynesSocks Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Absolutely no chance wed only accept £50k he is contracted until 2017! Might be a clause in his contract? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honest Saints Fan Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 We have the tightest chairman in Scotland. Absolutely no chance he's putting that clause on the managers contract, especially when it was signed when his stock was highest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 And yet we still win 5-1 Thats a credit to the players and staff tbh. The same media who reported United couldnt afford the compo for Hughes, whos contract out in the Summer, are badgering our manager and players before and after every match about the same job, when TW has double the length of contract. Seems legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banana Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Remember when Scott Allen was absolutely de-fin-et-ley playing for Hibs this season? Sign Wright just for the seethe then loan him out to some diddy outfit imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely no chance he's putting that clause on the managers contract, especially when it was signed when his stock was highest. If the contract was drafted when Wright's stock was at it highest, your chairman wouldn't be in the position of power. Wright could have put any sort of clause into the contract particularly when his wage is unlikely to particularly high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alert Mongoose Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 My sources tell me it's in the form of a 'gentlemans agreement' rather than specific clause in the contract. This was necessary to get Tommy to sign the new contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
