At last!

Welcome to Dundee United, Mickey.🔶⚫⚪

Excellent.

Great stuff: was hoping to see a photo of him in a United outfit.

Yessssss !!  Finally.   Was getting worried there.  Welcome Mickey.
Like others on here I thought "who's he" But the more I heard about him the more I liked the look ae him.

That's one duck down.

We can move on to some more signings and prep for new season.

Hearts situation - pain in the arse but the longer it goes on the more they're painted into a corner the more ahbdy's wasting money on Farce of Midlothian . Resolution in ahbdy's interest. Anyway that's for another thread.

Welcome Mickey !

Hi

First time poster although I do read the forum every day and thought it was about time I got involved.

Welcome to roller coaster ride that is Dundee United Mr Mellon, buckle yourself in, it's not always an enjoyable ride!

Look forward to hearing your press conference.

I would have been quite happy for them to stay cos heard they were good lads doing a decent job.
But new brooms sweep clean & maybe better that new regime rules.
Only problem is there will be relocation issues if MM brings any of his TRFC staff as I'm sure he will, maybe not knowing all the available assistants up here.
And on that issue that's great news MM is moving his (large) family up here, I was slightly concerned he'd be having to go up & down the road to Blackpool when he could get away Sun/Mon or whatever.

On this 'Welcome Mr Mellon' thread, Welcome Luggy10!

Not too surprised, cannae mind what contract they were on, but we must have balanced out the cost of that against the price for compensation if they go elsewhere.

Me too, but if they go to Hearts given the current issues, they won't be 'good lads' any more

Where are you seeing this mate? Disappointing if true but interesting to see who we appoint.

Was told from a club source that they left this morning.

Nothing against either. Indeed i've heard good things about both.

But common sense if true.

Rumours are that he hasnt 'walked out' as it says in article but that it was mutual. Assuming Mellon wanted to bring in his own no.2? If this is the case then no hard feelings against McCulloch. Has kept things moving over the last two weeks and you would imagine has gone about it very professionally.

Rumour is that this guy was present at training yesterday.
