Shows how poor the teams are at the bottom of the Prem, Partick were woeful over those two games, Livi was more difficult tie for us
Our clown manager lost us the tie in the home leg when we were 2-1 up going on 4-1, yet decided not to make any subs when we were tiring from the Dunfermline home tie 3 days before, but then we should never have had to play, a decent manager would have had us 2nd at worst
No really,just think if the keep their squad they will be challenging. No really bout the doh as u boys had biggest budget last season. They have 2 inexperienced managers tho so might also struggle.Quote:

I think the decision by Thompson and his monkey to keep on the manager is the final nail in the coffin of Dundee United Football Club in its present form,Livingston with one of the lowest budget's in the league have shown hard work for very little pay is all you needed to get up.
The supporters who are saying that Shabba deserves more time to build his own squad are wrong as are the worst owner,chairman and BOD in our history,he came in with the remit to get us promoted as champion's and failed by 14 points,worse than that he failed to finish above a team promoted from league 1 last season.
In my opinion next season's league will be tougher than this year's because,Ross County and Partick Thistle are financially stable and ICT and Falkirk will be stronger,its worth remembering that our manager came in when we were in pole position to go up and with by far the biggest budget and squad he had enough to work with to get at least 2nd.
I know we had the 2 injuries to F and F but that surely doesna mean that Livi were good enough to finish ahead of us and beat us in the play offs?.
You were right to want him out though as we were brutal to watch under him,but the appointment of Shabba has been a disaster on the Mixu scale,if i could travel back in time the manager we should have kept was McNamara when hindsight tell's you who is to follow,but his position was untenable due to Thompson giving him a cut of the transfer fees.Quote:

yes - wrong decisions time after time. We are making another one now as it doesnt matter who we sign we will continue to get bulliedQuote:

We knocked back Hopkins last year because he was too inexperienced.. That was a sliding doors momment and in hindsight a mistake.. Problem is an experienced manager that does an excellent job gets taken up by bigger team and is unobtainable.. Jack Ross an example and now looking like going to Ipswich.. Now Hopkin has got Livi to the spl theres no chance hell ever be our manager..
Is ST still making decisions?
For this season alone, there are a number of mistakes that took us to another season of failure. For me the 18 man squad, the Lewis deal if suspicions are right, and some of the players. Then the January window that brought Lyng and Mason here!
Signed - I am sick of being tagged as negative about the club I love too - we were right - and, we are rightQuote:
