On a fraction of the budget and crowds of both our teams, the latter have not only survived but actually thrived. I would suggest the reason for that is off pitch stability, organisation and structure. Every member of that Club’s staff from bottom up are pulling in the same direction. Contrast that with both United and Dundee the last few years. Chucking large amounts of money at a problem only works if your appropriate systems work well. Otherwise you may as well piss it against the wall.
Yup yer spot on,we had the 6th biggest budget in the league and are finishing worst team in the league.
