Have you forgotten there's a pandemic? The club has very little cash coming in. It's common sense to ride out the current situation in my opinion.

You are adding 2 and 2 and getting 432

Well one player we won't be signing is Marc McNulty.

He's been arrested on suspicion of match fixing.

Oh dear. 

Rumour yesterday late afternoon was that a deal was close with him... few hours later this!!

Don't know if signing Hoti has pushed Glass further down the pecking order but if it has I think going on loan again to get more first team football will be good for him and us.

Someone on EF saying Hoti refused to go out on loan when asked. Not sure if true or to what club.

Maybe a hint as to why he spent a year without a club. Sounds like Wato Mk2.
 

 
I've been wondering why Hoti has not been involved in any of the games after the quotes about him when he signed.

Let's see.

Marc McNulty had an Elland Road penalty saved in November 2018, just as Mark Ogren was finalising the takeover at Tannadice.

Almost two years later, we are just about to sign him, and he's arrested over match fixing.

It's the police who arrested McNulty, and Tony Asghar used to be in the police.

Tony Asghar was instrumental in the Ogren's buying the club, and it happened days after McNulty missed the Elland Road penalty.

Full circle there, it seems Mr Asghar has been working undercover.

Have I overthought this?

 
Possibly 😋

Heard a rumour yesterday that we've accepted 2 bids for Seigrist....

Cant see anyone coming in for Siegrist.

Also, I don't think we'll sign anyone due to the current uncertainty around fans getting in to games. I wouldn't blame anyone at the club for taking this approach. Keeping the club afloat must take priority at the moment.

If we dont sign anyone and go with what we have we will be lucky to stay up.

 

 
Yep, and selling off first teamers will ensure our swift return to the championship. Once there we will struggle to survive financially anyway

Selling off our best players is not riding out the situation though, how short is your memory?

My arithmetic is fine.

 
My comment on not signing anyone and a rumour about siegrist are not related. And who mentioned Ogren leaving?

 
Sorry, not trying to argue I promise. But I don't think you're getting my point.

Your opinion is that riding out the pandemic is the most important thing. Not disagreeing entirely but if that means selling players plus not recruiting then it's a recipe for disaster. Ogren came to United to succeed, and whilst the pandemic has caused massive disruption to that plan, relegation will not help us financially one bit. He needs to be strong now more than ever or his chips will be soaked in piss for sure and he will not stick around for that.

We all see things differently but my view is we need him to invest more in the short term for the long term good. We go down this time we will disappear into obscurity.

can I throw this in here..
mate of mine certain Friday v Livi is live on Sky

Sadly some on here do not see they only recognise. and what they do not recognise remains invisible to them.

No one is trying to 'reel you in'.

You are now the equivalent of the man who's opening his window and yelling into the void. No one's interested and this posting style of trying to provoke other posters in every single post is way beyond tedious now.

Keep it up and i won't ban you. I'll just delete your account. It'll be like you were never here.

Your choice. I've been more than lenient with you btw and have tried to give you the benefit of the doubt.
 

 
You're a far more tolerant man than myself Tek.

They’re on Friday because Scotland have their playoff the following midweek.  All games were going to be Friday night but Celtic and Rangers still being in Europe means their matches put back to Sunday as they have now games on Thursday night.  The St Johnstone v Celtic game is on sky (originally scheduled for Friday night but now Sunday at 12).

Cheers for that, had no idea tbh. So I assume we are definitely not on Sky then.

 
No our game 100% not on sky

LOA Logan and Benji are or will be targets.
Meantime Clark ineffectual, we bring on 3rd CB v Haccies and they promptly score.

Got to be signings soon you'd think.

Jeando Fuchs, Cameron internationalist, very interesting signing! Played a lot for a young lad, and read a few things saying he just wants to play! Could be coup this signing

Butcher to centre half???
