There are lots of people with genuine concerns, quite rightly. But on another forum (mentioned above) there are people who want TA sacked as he is killing the club and are never going back until he is gone. And as above, think the club will go to the wall within the next couple of years. They are just deciding that we have hired Courts, and that he is going to fail, and the club will get relegated and then ultimately, die. There is concern and there is pure panic. It is pretty tiring stuff.

thats what i meant - no one on here being this level of panic but genuine concern as OA said

Same can be said for every poster on here, the other forums, social media and all season ticket holders but certainly this appointment and the leaving of MM has everyone split.

Did you get any replies from DD & CS?

I’ve always received a positive response about previous communications but awaiting email about current issues.

Unless the club aren't meeting their expectations they will leave those they have appointed to get on with it. To be honest, that's what you want from owners isn't it?

True in normal circumstances but the club are on verge of having the third different manager in a year!

I know but I'm not sure I want an owner, especially one from America, having hands on control of the club. I have no doubt that if there are issues that the owners business targets are at risk then he'll do something. I just don't think we are there at the moment.

Have you read the Year End June 2019 Financial report from United's majority owner OPG-4 UK Ltd.?
The ones for Year End 2020 and 2021 are not expected to be any better.

Yeah but that, I'd imagine, will be considered by them as their investment. Now they want to start getting a return?

I have contacted the club and wish to thank RA for putting up the info.

Likewise I have emailed Supporter Liaison, and urge every United fan to do the same.

I am also urging the Foundation to do a poll amongst members to withhold any future finance until talks are held with fans groups and consultation and that they are CRYSTAL clear that as fans - we need them to appoint an experienced manager, and if they want Courts in future then to put him into coaching team, so that he can learn his trade!!

Socially distanced demonstration is needed as well. Thoughts?? Remember, fan power!!

Absolutely. It feels as though we've been taken for something of a ride what with the club constantly squeezing the fans to part with their cash.

I'm all for a sound youth development model, but first and foremost I want to see a team and a manager that can compete in the top league free from the spectre of relegation.

The sooner the club is owned by the actual supporters of Dundee United the better. It's like 'amateur hour' 24 hours a day ATM.
