    Pathway to first team coach at Dundee United Football Club.

    Playing career of SIX games,

    None for his parent club Motherwell
    3 for Dumbarton(Loan)
    1 for Alloa
    2 for East Stirlingshire(Loan)

    Coaching career,

    UEFA elite YOUTH coach
    Braidhurst high school Motherwell coach
    Motherwell U16 coach
    Motherwell U18 coach

    Then the big breakthrough!!!!!

    Senior Academy HEAD coach at Dundee United Football Club.
    Held back on the pathway by Micky Mellon but once he was away
    First Team Coach(unannounced)of Dundee United.

    A meteoric rise from the worst senior club in Scotland(East Stirling)to showing Lawrence Shankland(Scottish International football player)how to strike the ball.

    The Bandit has only got our best interest's at heart though eh troops?.

    I give you the one and only Bandit Bairn.FACT.

    Yes if only we had a fans organisation who could ask some questions. No idea if the guy is a messiah but we do need answers. Nepotism maybe maybe tam has decided this? Who knows but your prophecies are are coming true GB

    Another great thread 👍

    Does anyone actually think it will make a difference continually bashing the Asghars? I am still to see how they have damaged the club by gaining promotion and then staying up whilst spending a minimal amount of money during the covid pandemic.

    100% guilty and very very proud to highlight it when it was swept under the Utd Mad carpet.

    Definitely veiled in nepotism. However. Ian Cathro was head of academy by 22 and his next role was as assistant manager in the Portuguese premier league - he also never had a playing career. If he wasn’t an ashgar would you have an issue with it?
