Telfer has left, on the website.

A decent player who will probably carve out a career somewhere but a fucking tragedy that he cost us almost 250k.  Got to be in the top 3 of Jackie related cock-ups in terms of transfers.

£204,000 but still.

He isn't decent he is fucking shite. Same as Spittal, Dixon etc.

Decent players can put a run of half a dozen good games together - not cumulatively over 3 years.

Delighted all this dross is getting cleared out. Slight concern would be is there a thought through plan in place to replace?

Thing is these guys "had" potential or were proven half decent players at one point.

IMO a lot of United fans will have a previously positive opinion on them based on what could have been.

 

What actually turned out though was that they were shite, over payed and cost money.

Telfer and Spittal are both examples of players who probably looked outstanding at U16 and U17 levels but have totally fallen behind others in terms of progression in a first team setup.

Charlie Telfer, He scored number SIX!

That's the spirit.  Look back on happier times when you used to beat Dundee.  Actually it's probably enough for you to look back on the time when you used to play in the same league as Dundee.

Good to see Telfer go, all the best to him. He'll be remember for scoring the SIXTH goal in the derby...

Spittal, Flood and Murdoch probably the best three out all the out of contract players. Wouldn't mind them staying for back up, but think if any of them get kept on McKinnon will be looking them as first choice so would get rid.

I'm sure he'll pay his cut of the losses.

You could look back to when Dundee won the Scottish Cup if you like, although given it predates the concept of time itself that might be tricky.
