Seems our chairman was correct to offer him a deal based on actual appearances as he is out injured long-term again!! (Thankfully Dundee Utd picking up tab this time) He has been paid quite handsomely for lying on physio couch over last couple of seasons.

Jeez that's harsh,  suppose your a spring chicken

Almost as handsomely as Macca, Midge, Ando and Muzz right enough,probably the saddest post of the month

Scobbie doesn't often get niggles, but has been susceptible to quite a few bad injuries over his years with us, and obviously now at United too. Feel sorry for him - the United fans seem to quite like him and he's clearly a decent guy. Hope he gets himself fit soon.

Jamie Robson, is a braw young player.....we have had loads of braw young players the last couple  of seasons.....we badly need big strong experienced players....we signed Quinn as cover, just as well!

Quinn is a bombscare. Don't build your hopes up.

Heartbroken for tam, was looking the part, and made captain! Be back around xmas, hope it's not any longer, would hate him to miss the Scottish Cup final, or the promotion run in!

It shows the gulf between The Arabs and St Johnstone when someone who hardly got in our starting eleven unless someone was injured was made United´s captain. Then Paton who was your captain previous takes a whole season to stake a chance at a regular starting spot. The biggest mistake we have made with retreads United this season is not signing Blair Spittal.

When a team can barely win a match for 18 months the players must all be moved on. Raymond moved half out last summer, the rest out this summer, imo it had to be that way.  

 

Spittal is all gifted footballer whose development was arrested during Mixu's disastrous tenure, and all couple of injuries.  He will perform well in the top flight whoever he plays for, and would have been a good signing for Saints, but i would agree with Andy Rhodes, MOH is just that bit better in everything he does.

 

Whilst there may be a "gulf' between United and the top of the SPL,  it's astonishing how quickly such a gulf can be closed....as an eternal optimist  I am confident the gulf is temporary, I anticipate us being much closer this time next season......;)
