    Not sure what you mean regarding Reynolds, but my opinion is biased as i think he is the exact type of player we needed at the time, and if his contract lasts to the end of this season, he should be allowed to play that out and given a good send off! I also think Clark has something to give but only in a position that works for him!

    I know Reynolds came to us on loan initially, but cant actually remember the contract lengths and renewals after that!

    One things for sure imho, this is a job-defining pre-season from Asghar. If we do well (we have done under him so far) then he should be applauded for it and especially by the doubters. If he gets it wrong then he should walk, there is no way he should survive if Courts ends up having to leave or relegation happens.

    This to me feels exactly like the McNamara relegation pre-season where we could see going in to it the upcoming season was about to be a disaster..... and it was

    Agree that asghar and the board should take responsability for how their experiment with courts etc goes don't really know if it is all down to the hated asghar or if others have a hand in it but if it is another success like his first two season think he should get a bit of ceredit.

    That's not what he said or meant. They've signed a player for nothing who will improve them. If they can, why can't we?

    THink because he would not improve us we need better than him to improve us and it gets harder to find players to improve you the better the player you need.

    Maybe it’s not so much about budget and more to do with players and agents no fancying United at this time? after all we’ve not been setting the world on fire with scintillating fitba, last season saw one good game ffs, and I can’t remember if there was a decent display the season before? Reckon we need to ride out the storm, hope we have a decent first half of the season and get clear of trouble, see the return of away fans which brings in the ***** funds needed to entice the players everyone wants to see at Tannadice, and then maybe we get back to where we like to think we should be.

    The main thing for me though is encouragement, this is what these players, especially the young lads coming through will need from the support. Get behind the club lads, only four days to go so let’s be United 🖤🧡🖤🧡

    Yeah i m not convinced its a budget thing, I think its more that we would prefer not to spend and have decided to gamble with what we currently have which is why i think the decision makers of that should walk along with Courts if it goes tits up

    100% agree know most fans I know are not so down on utd as they are on here but hope my lot are not minority and the negitives the majority and it shows in ground when we get back last thing these young guys need is a negitive support.

    No one has said we want great signings. Signing to improve the team is what we want. If there is genuinely not one player in the entire footballing world who is available, on our budget and able to improve our team then fair enough. Hats off to the recruitment team for trying their hardest. I struggle to believe that however.

    I may be wrong but I think they are looking and trying to find players to improve us but you may be right and they are not ?
