    Best shanks moment

    Lots to choose from but favourites for me

    1st

    Second goal v Dundee when he took the ball mid height ghosted past a few fun defenders and slotted it away. Decided a tight and important match

    2nd

    The ross county opening goal this last season. Classic shanks and stopped the rot where we couldn’t buy a win before

    3rd

    Strong Header v Arbroath where we turned it around - 2 goals that sent us on the run that won us title

    Lots to choose from but these my favourites

    A genuine goalscorer who instinctively knew where the goal was

    Delighted to have seen him in tangerine

    I would say it has to be Peter's buyout clause prediction 👍🍺

    Yes that was a defining moment in the career of LOA when Peter informed us that his contract was virtually worthless to us.My favourite moment of his time with us was the very day he signed.
    When that scarf went above his head i knew that our days in oblivion were coming to an end,i heard stories that when he was on his way to Tannadice to sign agents were calling him in his car trying to persuade him to go elsewhere for more money,i will be forever grateful to LOA for keeping to his word and signing for Dundee United.
    Without any shadow of a doubt this was the greatest achievement of the current regime and i include Tony in that.I can only hope and pray that he and our owners can deliver something similar now, failure to do so could send us back to the pre Shankland days and oblivion again.

    We'll find out soon enough what he went to the Belgian giants for...I know you don't believe it was anything like a million 😄

    Likely around £500k with add ons that could take it to £1M

    Which is £450k and £950k more than you got for Kamara ✅ 🙈

    £50k for a player they'll sell for millions. But you're the experts when it comes to finance 😁

    Will be remembered as one of the best to pull on tangerine.

    So many good goals. Scoring against Dundee at Dens was glorious.
