  1. Steve McClaren has also finally realised Dundee United are shite - and has withdrawn from process. https://www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/sport/football/dundee-united/1413560/breaking-steve-mcclaren-turns-down-dundee-united/
  2. I've got mine and son's through, but not my old man's (not on same account as we have different barcodes/addresses). Sure it will be sorted out eventually but it's not a great experience. I'm not getting anything when I try phoning, not even engaged tone.
  3. I've actually heard Tommy call them "Dundee Uni-tit" on more than one occasion. May just be his accent, but I'm not so sure!
  4. Sincerely hope Tommy does not go to THEM, that would be most upsetting!!
  5. I know the SPFL shambles is discussed elsewhere, but the suggestion United wouldn't get up is quite amusing. Tee hee!
  6. Horrendous news. Can’t quite believe it.
  7. He’s from Kinross. May well have a KY postcode.
  8. I cannot get through on the phone. Anyone else had any issues?
  9. Really worrying stuff. Haven’t felt this glum since Stark was manager.
  10. She had previously worked at Kilmarnock, but I don't think particularly recently, so not quite accurate to say she was recruited from them. I agree it's odd so little has been made of her appointment.
  11. Genuinely surprised anyone can find a reason not to pay respects to someone who has succumbed to such a nasty disease. I understand what you are trying to say Random, but afraid I can’t agree, especially, as Soulful stated on radio yesterday, given one of our own legends (Don McVicar) also suffered horribly from MND.
  12. Disagree. But for the sake of discussion who would you bring in?
  13. I have it on good authority that Stevie May is to take up a new player/chief executive role and will announce himself as a new signing. This is thought to be a first for Scottish football but is a well proven practice in other sports such as ice hockey, polo and powerboat racing. Saints have been keen to keep this under wraps for fear of other clubs copying this new model and it seems the shenanigans of the past few weeks have in fact been a well planned and executed smokescreen. If this turns out to be accurate, Saints may have played a blinder. Exciting times!
  14. Next up Killie, who have arguably had a worse couple of months than us. With signs of improvement from Saints and the possibility of a new striker this could be a cracker, or not.
  15. Ok, so the issue is not the donating per se, it’s the funding of a specific player. I understand that. others would feel they would only donate if the club was in trouble. I’m genuinely interested in how fundraising might be used to help the club, so a very useful thread.
  16. Fair enough, and I apologise for suggesting you don’t care. Still don’t think it’s a bad idea though. I would consider donating to the club as part of a structured scheme for the first team squad and there may be others willing to do so. what I don’t understand though is why the strong reactions against doing so? Genuine question.
  17. Correct, in fact the Directors have had to put very significant amounts of their own money into the club. Given this and the huge amount of unpaid work they do, I don’t think we can begrudge them a bowl of soup and a wee steak pie!
  18. Why not. Don’t you care about your club? Nobody would force you to do so, but if you could afford it why shouldn’t fans offer to help the club out?
