As a short term gig, he's the exact rocket up the arse type United are perhaps needing.

Much like Motherwell, i don't think someone charging in and labeling everyone shite is what they need.

Come in, make it simple, play players in their best positions.

A midfield of Levitt, Sibbald and McGrath isnt the best but also isnt the worst. Let Middleton and Niskanen be outright wingers in front of Smith + Behich. Try and get numbers up to support Fletcher who needs that.

In saying that its all moot when all your goalkeeping options are dogshit. One way or another itll be that situation that relegates them.

Now that Dundee United have solved their fox problem, I reckon the next manager will be Noel Hunt who is currently Reading’s under 23s manager.

I think we're as good as down given this squad doesn't appear to be the kind that would respond to the type of manager that is needed.

Therfore, I am all in favour of the most banterful appointment possible until the end of the season and just go full scorched earth on it.

Barry Robson mentioned in his interview after the game on Sat that he "would be a manager in his own right soon........somewhere".

So which dugout will he be in on Saturday evening?

I’m fairly sure we’ll make an absolute Noel Hunt of the appointment.

No mention of Goodwin.......shocked and disappointed!

I'm not sure on United's financial situation and what they're willing to pay to get the right man in but getting Danny Cowley would be worth a shot I reckon. Courts is an obvious candidate I suppose. I think Mulgrew might be a good shout purely because it means he's out of the starting 11.

Martindale constantly gets overlooked for bigger jobs. 

Probably cause he’s a criminal, and a baldy b*****d.

There's also that he probably wouldn't want to pack in a job he has for life, to go somewhere and get sacked after 4 months.

[Doctor Manhattan]

Perhaps a hypocritical observation from a 'Well fan, but the word "Permanent" in the thread title seems slightly optimistic in the circumstances.

Jim McIntyre managing United v Dundee in the play off is surely the biggest potential banter scenario?

Mulgrew would 100% play himself though. He still thinks he’s prime Maldini.

Bring him home.

I think most Arabs would tell you they have a fat c**t problem to address first.

Dougie Imrie must be in with a shout. Young manager working with a modest budget and doing well in the championship.

Surprised Karl Robinson hasn't been mentioned yet. Just sacked English lower league jobber who had one decent result years ago so must be ready to 'kick start his career' in Scotland unless a Harrogate or Wealdstone come in for him.
