    I hope that our current coaching team, and if that includes young Asghar then so be it, do the best they can do, because if they succeed we as supporters will hopefully see some good young players wearing the Tangerine.

    I personally don't really care who the coaching staff is. I've seen guys who I've idolised become manager or be on the backroom staff and we've been rubbish or guys i've never heard of but managed to win a cup so at the end of the day it doesn't matter really.

    As long as they are trying their best for the club while improving the players and making united win.

    extreme circumstances can come into certain appointments but in general this is my thoughts on it.

    Ogren will have to get a massive slice of luck to get any of his money back through future player sales and I wish him well I really do but if thie model is so successful then why isn't everyone else doing it? Maybe they are to a lesser extent but we seem to be throwing an affy lot of money on one hell of a gamble.
    That first paragraph there is exactly why i dont understand why people cannot see parallels in the current goings on when it all went wrong before under ST!

    He has went from an Assistant School Coach to the DUFC 1st team dugout in less than 3.5 years.In a real life scenario its frying the chips in McDonalds to a senior management position in the blink of an eye.
    This is not a simple case of a father helping out his son to deliver milk or pick tatties etc this is Dundee United we are talking about and i'm perfectly entitled to voice an opinion on it.
    He nor Tam are qualified none of them have a UEFA Pro licence neither does our NO2.As far as i'm aware all of them are a level below the required level to coach a professional club in the Premiership.The course to reach the required level costs thousands of pounds and i hope The Bandit will not be using the Ogrens and our money to fund ALL them going on it.
    As an example Micky Mellon funded his own course at ST George's Park.
