Daily record saying we’ve agreed a fee with Newco for Glenn Middleton.

Think we’ll see Middleton arrive in next day or so

 
An additional to the squad in an area that should have been position one or two in our list of priorities.

Hopefully the lad can kick his career on and excite the fans.

Welcome to Tannadice young man.

Declan Glass signs a 1 year contract extension (taking him till Summer 2024).

Then immediately sent to Derry City on loan until November.

We are very light in central midfielders now. Surely McGrath incoming?

jack Ross really hates our academy dosnt he ?

The simple fact is the quality of players we have been tracking and subsequently signed were just not available earlier in the window . These guys have options to consider and are not in the least bit desperate to rush into anything.

The only way to get these players is either to offer huge wages, which we can't, or play the long game and persuade them their interests are best represented here.

The downside is they aren't in place for the start of pre season - for me that's a price worth paying.

It broke my heart to see some of the criticism of the club over the last few weeks, when in reality there have been massive efforts in the recruitment space that are now bearing fruit.

I can't wait to see which top player appears next!

You're not somebody from the club. You're either a dick from another forum trying to disrupt things here, or you're someone who can't read a room and needs to get out more. My money is on the former. You make some sensible points, as LEK pointed out, and you bury them in a a massive pile of wank designed to piss people off. Intentionally, IMO.

Away back to eastfootball, or wherever it is you come from.

 
Thats hurtful, to be honest.

I'm just a fan who expresses their opinion. No more, no less.

Hot off the press:

While you lot were in your beds, United have signed Glenn Middleton!

A real, actual winger!

Have to say, this transfer window is shaping up to be absolutely BRILLIANT!

So why the need for the condescending attitude towards other posters? And what's this bollocks about a broken heart? If reading stuff on a football message board breaks your heart then I don't think the internet is really your cup of tea do you?

Jamie McGrath inside Tannadice tonight by all accounts, loan deal until the end of the season imminent.

Middleton’s Scotland U-21 captain too I think.

Say what you want about Asghar, but he’s done some really good business this summer. A ball winner in the middle (Shinnie?) and we’ve got a real chance of finishing 3rd and competing for cups. Hard to imagine that it was just a few year ago we were signing boys like Lyng, Nichols and Mikkelsen.

Squad’s pretty bloated now though, don’t see where guys like Pawlett, Clark and Chalmers fit in anymore. Done a job in getting us where we are, but they’re no at the level we require now.

 
Pawlett and Clark will still do a job for us at this level. Agree with the post though, and just shows how ridiculous some of the stuff that's been aimed at Tony Asghar actually is. Would literally be our best window ever if we can persuade Shinnie to join up too

As always it's better waiting until we se the scarf above the head picture before getting carried away.
Some of the absolute childish nonsense that was directed at TA and the club on this thread was an embarrassment.

Could AU have had a point.... ? 
If all signings come to fruition it's a great statement of intent.

- Albeit a fortnight too late.
- Lets wait till we see the scarf above with McGrath.   Indeed I'll no be 101% certain about Behich until I see him on bench or running on.     .. Edit ADS on other thread saying Work Permit sorted for Behich - good one.
- As for Clark, Pawlett, Chalmers.   Clark for me's a keeper, others down to TA/JR bearing in mind that Mulgrew & Fletcher will you'd think pick up injuries.

5'10" is pretty short for a keeper.
