    Not the only fan group member that will think like that. Guaranteed.

    Spence kept sanity and just plain humanity together at the club in so many ways. Derek too.

    FYI - i have previously enquired about ownership and investment into utd. I was treated like a leper and wont be back. You probably know who I am given some of your insight and comments.
    Wow. This is an interesting thread.

    Says a lot. Potential investors are shunned. Running of the club elsewhere in thread is said to be toxic.

    No wonder we can't find a buyer if this is true. The longer ST involved the more it seems the lose chance of good potential owners / investors being interested

    Leadership comes from the top.

    It seeps into every area.

    I wish the club’s staff that interact with other clubs or media folk would learn a little humility.

    That would be a start.

    Not sure if others have been. Some points made are that its is difficult to deal with utd in anything just now. We arent the family club we built are name on to be honest. Most clubs chairmen despise us now - even ICT. did you know Yogi was illegally approached and had signed a contract only for ICT to see right through it. I posted he was coming here well before press got onto it. A total shambles.

    Anyhoo we are still gelling

    Agree - my best mate is editor of a tabloid he has sympathy for utd mainly because of rangers (he hates both the twisted sisters) but cant abide utd and their comms. Bizarrely there are posters on here who work for him and are arabs 100%

    what is the starting position then what now?

    It's a real mess and so much that needs to change. It is top to bottom job needed.

    I don't think fans have done enough to indicate unhappiness with how club run. Fine coming on here and posting but rarely hear anything chanted etc against Thompson at tannadice.

    There does need to be one organised group like in United for Change times

    Most useful thing would be for fans groups to sacrifice their own personal egos for the greater good.

    Organise and get one focus.

    Get control of the trust board and get publicity as third biggest shareholder, resign board position if desired, call club EGM with 5% of shareholding.

    But that won’t happen.

    I’ve zero confidence in any fan group.
