Having missed the prelude to last nights game, Ive just sat through the vlog and am about to watch the game all the way through which i didnt manage last night. For once, credit is due to the BBC, and i hope for more of the same next week!

Not sure how this has all come to be but the United support of 2022 are a very passionate bunch who i reckon turn everything Dundee United on its head.What i mean is although i always harp back to the glory days of the 80's i still remember the fans as being pretty hard to please and players like Bannon,Holt and others sometimes getting pelters.
The current younger generation's of supporters have in the main had F ALL to shout about for years yet back the team to the hilt especially away.Even when not allowed to attend matches during the pandemic hundreds still went to Tannadice just to see the team busses leaving for the Sheep Massacre in the Scottish.
I have moaned like phuck about the product on the park for the last couple of season's but still thousands travel away all over the country no matter how bad we have been.We will never have a fan base as large as the OF,Hearts,Hibs or Aberdeen but few could argue that we are competing on at least a par with the latter 3 with our away support and for atmosphere in the away end we give all 5 i mention a run for their money,FACT with a WASC.
EDIT to add as for the teams who think they are on a par with us let this sink in,we are on course to take more fans over 800 miles to Amsterdam than DFC had at Dens in TWO Scottish Cup ties v Motherwell and The Rangers combined.This despite our opponents hammering Tuzla City 0-4 away and the bookies predicting a similar outcome at Tannadice.

Not a song starter myself but ill join in
Surely this has got to be a new one for us given how big it is with the Scotland fans for McGinn:
We've Got McGrath,
Super Jamie McGrath,
I just don't think you understand!
He's Jack Ross man,
He's better than Zidane,
We've got Super Jamie McGrath
Someone start it in Amsterdam for me please![]()
No social media in those days. I'm not a huge fan, but..... it defo connects everyone instantly, and that seems to be working for us. The Snug walk would never have happened back in the day, nor the embarrassing coffin ane![]()
The bloggers/Vloggers etc have raised the bar, everyone carrying a phone means athin' is documented forever.
I would imagine a gang fight could be organised in a few minutes these days instead oh passing the news around school and youth clubs for at least a week![]()
(not that i'm condoning gang fights)![]()
Bottom line is............. The young guns , male and female, are taking hold of the baton and doing us proud.
Not forgetting the auld anes who still tag along
All is very good.
