Jim McLean Book

Fellow Arabs.
After the success, and good fun, of last year’s Arabs Away book, I’m working on another title: Jim McLean Dundee United Legend. It is to pay tribute to Jim and recognise his incredible achievements.
It will carry tributes from the greats in the game, Jim’s contemporaries, his players, and celeb United fans. The book will recognise the superb work of the statue steering committee, and I’m interviewing sculptor Alan Herriot, Smile writer Phil Differ, the lovely Lorraine, and Hooly.
Crucially I also have the backing of Jim’s wife Doris, who has given me a lovely interview.
The book will contain never-before-seen photos of Jim.
I’d like to open this to all United supporters. We should all pay tribute to Jim, recognising what he did for the club.
So I’d like to invite every Arab to contribute a few words or a few sentences giving your opinion, your tribute to Jim McLean. It needn’t be much, Indeed, if you just want to say: “Respects to Jim, Joe Bloggs, Beechwood," then that’s fine.
Email your tribute to: jimbook@dctmedia.co.uk
I’m trying to create a little bit of history. A book that might be read in 50 or 100 years’ time that will tell Arabs of the future exactly why there is a statue to this man. That will tell what people, ordinary fans, thought of one of the all-time great figures of Scottish football.
Please share this invitation with all and any Arabs you know.
Thanks.
