    I can't understand why United agreed to terminate TC's contract only for him to move to another club within hours. Where does this leave the club regarding compensation? Surely they should have stuck to their guns and forced TC into resigning to get his move. Maybe it is a lot simpler than I am understanding but I am a bit confused by the whole episode.

    That’s kind of where I’m at. Surely if Honved wanted him, then show us the money and crack on. The only thing I can think of is that maybe TC was due, for instance, some performance related bonuses from the season just finished and has agreed to walk away from that in return for United releasing him. It’s the only thing that would make any sense.

    Or Utd, knowing time is getting on for pre-season and signings, wanted to cut their losses and move quickly to get the right man in place instead of dragging things on for another few weeks.

    That makes a lot of sense but can United afford to overlook compo for the sake of moving things along?

    Despite everyone saying it's all but a done deal.

    If I'm wrong I'll eat humble pie but I'm certain there is something not right within Tannadice Towers, enough to put off any self-respecting candidate.

    Anyway JR's rejection will be fuel for TA, 'we did try for the best but there were one or two imponderables'. Like when Steve McClaren was used as fuel when TC was appointed.

    Enter Adam Ant, stage left.
    I think mclaren was from when we appointed Mellon

    I just hope we get Jack Ross in.

    The project under TA is going well

    It’s frustrating having to wait for appointment but if we have moved on TC to get JR then is an Upgrade

    If it means getting the preferred candidate in without paying compo, then I guess so.

    I now know the TC truth. Yes Croatian club approached he (Tam) had an erection of at least 4 inches which is double his usual. We said aye ok 200k they went fvck off. Tam had already taken his viagra so was billy big boy. half man half biscuit saved his ass and he went lets split. Orgen ordered it. So what? he would have got us relegated this season I am convinced.Jack Ross now asking for a house (which we have offered) but also to work away a couple of days. How does that work?? guy has been offered the best deal ever to a manager and does that. I know it is part of the process. he will be announced but if successful he will go back down south
