How can it be right for Hearts to be gifted £500k when it's possible that the likes of Hamilton St Mirren etc etc might be in much more financial difficulty? I accept that would have taken time and effort but the arbitrary gifting of £500k to all the clubs does raise the question.
I'm much more concerned about a total T W A T like Mike Barile trying to make himself sound like he's representing the opinions of all United fans when he doesn't.
Do you think it was wise of Adam to get involved? If I was Adam I would have just been non committal, saying "I'm not in a position to comment on the internal matters of Dundee United".
Especially given the losses that Dundee FC have made, and there's no doubt Mark Ogren is not the only Chairman of a Dundee based club that is writing a monthly cheque to cover the shortfall?
