    We'd all love to see pretty football but it rarely wins you trophies look at Spurs (my team by the way). Chelsea too won the EPL last season playing a tedious counter attacking style of football... again.... do you think their fans care?

    Even though it ain't good on the eye I feel we are still beating our opponents at home because we are better than them, it's our away form that's worrying and could be Ray's downfall rather than his style of play. Still early days yet though, we have the players to entertain and it might just click given time but I'd rather win the league ugly than finish in the play offs Spursesque.
    If we were to win this league playing as we have been then I'd agree that not too many of our fans would care.
    The problem is that as we continue to struggle in virtually every game then more and more fans are beginning to doubt that it has any chance of happening.
    And has also been said we'd be right back down again.

    I don't think we'd be minding if we were playing the way we are in the Prem, i.e grinding out results with little conviction.
    But we're playing in the 2nd tier & we should be lording it over these teams, turning it on, showing them who's boss.
    Having said that I mean no disrespect to the Championship teams. They come to Tannadice raising their game & fighting like tigers. The Falkirks, QotS's & Mortons are no easy-beats and would challenge the majority of the big league, only Celtic & Aberdeen would see off these teams easily enough.

    Id say with absolute justification.

    Poor product, overpriced and professional in name only.

    I'm afraid I have to agree with this.

    Things have not been great for United past few years ( understatement ) but FFS it's relentless, especially on here. The internet has contributed massively to this by providing a public outlet for Mr angry puss.

    Before I get feking jumped on , I agree also things are not going well at the moment in respect of our team, performances and Rays tactics. I do however feel Ray can and will improve things. So give him a bit more time, get behind the team and let's hopefully kick on. I will always support and follow United no matter what league we are in or how we are playing. They are my club and always will be. I seriously hope and believe things will get better.
