Difference currently though is that back in the day, Utd were genuinely getting better and better concurrently, which at the end of the day is why we supplanted Dundee as top dogs. There is absolutely no evidence of Dundee doing anything remotely similar during our current predicament to accurately replicate what happened back then. Yes I know it's all ifs and buts, but if United get back up this season, then there will have been absolutely no change in the City hierarchy. If we were to stay down for 10 years, well that's a different story.............
Thing is it was us making a c##t of it as per usual and letting jim mclean go that started the swing towards you boys.We have had chances esp during archie knox reign but were being run by dafties.If you get up this season fair enough but what if you stay down for 7 seasons like we did(nae play affs then either).
Only time will tell.
