Clark made it pretty clear over the summer he had no intention of signing for us. So no surprise.

Window is shut, team weaknesses crystallised (bar any free agents - although I don't get any feeling for a budget for any).  We've got to thole what we have until the next opportunity.  We will appoint Fox on a rolling contract as which serious manager is going to come in and work with the mess left by the Ross feck up?  It's all very depressing, but it's not as if I can switch off being a United fan.

 
There really won't be a problem finding another manager as far as I can see. What's the worst that can happen? Fired after 7 games with a nice fat wedge? I wish my company would fire me and give me a pay off for the remainder of my contract. I'm still hoping (praying) that Zander Clark is still on our radar as he's still without a club. Still leaves us with that hole in the middle of course but I'd just feel a little less worried if we had a proven keeper.

For those with short memories Ads, Benjamin wasn't a proven keeper in his early days.
I do remember cos I was having to sympathise with his wee brother on Fb as he was upset at the lack of love he was getting from the fans!
But he overcame it all & has done rather well for himself.
Give Eriksson a chance, he deserves it & I think that he'll take it.
 

The important difference though UAE is that Eriksson is a full internationalist, who has had a 9 month bedding in period.

If he is not performing much better (starting tomorrow at Motherwell), then we can't wait much longer and simply must sign another Keeper.

Bad goalies get you relegated.

2015/16 taught us that.

Don’t know why folk are surprised we didn’t sign him. We have 2 first team goalies at the club. Hope when he is back from injury the Aussie gets another chance as think he is the better of the two.

 
You honestly think he's injured? Nothing to do with him being a fucking weasel then? I hope he never pulls on a United shirt again.

 
No reason to believe he isn’t. If folk think we are going to send him back to Oz after paying a fee to get him here they need to give their heads a wobble.

 
I don't need to give mine a wobble but I absolutely don't want the guy playing for my club again. It might not bother some but I've been a United fan over 40 years and Sunday fucking hurt, it hurt even more after seeing what this prick was up to

Also, the club do have form for pretending someone is injured. Remember Lawrence Shankland missing the Sevco game last season before signing for the Belgian outfit?
