Bowers fans shat on?  We still have a decent chance of finishing top 4  something our neighbours havent managed for over 50 years.Things could be a hell of a lot worse. Thompson made a decision to sell which i think he probably realises is now the wrong one, however to say that he does not care about the club is clearly wrong, if he did not care we would have went into administration in 2008.  

Do you think we would have beaten Celtic with Armstrong and Gms in the team?  Think back to August a 6-1 defeat to Celtic with both the aforementioned in the team. Supporters are angry ,looking for targets to vent their anger. The facts are Celtic are significantly superior to United and have been for 20 years.

this is not a backlash from last night

this is the whole situation

these cunts are going to run the club into the ground

will all come out in the wash

Beharder, I applaude your positivity. My mood is somewhere between yours and Bowers, always tried to be encouraging but since the final transfer window things have really ground me down bit by bit, game by game.

I'm sure after the Final Celtic game things will get better. Pretty please....

thats the thing we all want the best for our club 100% 
its not in jackie or thompsons hearts compared to ours.

What has happened to the squad? even with gms and armstrong earlier in the season we never played like we had seen many a time in the season previous.

take the motherwell cup game at tannadice motherwell away game and inverness cup game last season for example... proberly the best free flowing attacking football many have seen dundee united play... 
what has happened to that? what has happened to the tactics? 

is there no faith in connolly? Is there no faith in telfer?

whats going to happen next season or the season after when we have no sellable assets?

Round and Round in circles after a run of bad results

Is we never will be

Ps: I stood outside Celtic Park last night for longer than usual and it dawned on me that they are quite simply a massive Club compared to the one i support. This will obviously be no shock to most Football fans but sometimes it's something that we need to remember on occasion especially when we have to play them 4 times in a row. The Bookie doesn't offer 8/1 for United after Celtic had not beaten United in the 2 previous matches between them for no reason. The easy option in life would be to join the biggest and best Club, Company or Gang in the World but would it give you the same satisfaction? No! Thats why i dont go home and beat my wife after the random defeat, I choose instead to go home after the random win and give her the time of her life. That's love and that's the life of a Dundee United Supporter
I think

 
That is almost word for word what i posted SO in the other thread. we must have been standing there too long last night!!

There is too much positivity here, where's all the JMAC and ST out threads (forum rules dictate they have to be in full block capitals to really show your anger tho!)  This is why this is my forum of choice, full of people with passion, rationale and a sense of humour. You guys complete me 

 

Funny we must all be slightly telepathic on here because i was slightly optimistic of a result beforehand last night.But as i too was hanging about outside their ground you see their smart walkway (that we as tax payers funded for the Commonwealth games ),you see their smart lights and club crest all lit up,you look up and see people through the huge glass windows enjoying their hospo (which looks light years ahead of ours,looks like they're in an actual restaurant and not just in a fitba ground),and you just take in the enormity of their stadium ...and yeah our club feels very small in comparison.My optimism slowly started to evoporate.

That is why i am so bitterly dissapointed in where the club has ended up this season.

After we beat them in December and particualry after we hammered Dundee 6-2 there was a wee feeling in the air of 'hey we're getting close to doing something here and challenging for things'.

But for me even if we are a small club we need the people that are running the club to adopt a BIG club mentality.By that i mean in certain circumstances you forego the lure of cash to mount a rare challenge to the establishment.You don't bow to pressure and you stick to your guns.

Selling Robertson,Gauld,Armstrong and GMS in the space of 6 months has all but crippled the team that were the toast of Scottish football this time last year.

The next batch of kids coming through don't seem to be the same level in class as the likes of Allan,Armstrong,Russell etc and Jackie's replacements have been hit and miss (mostly miss imo).

With the rumours of Stevie Campbell being let go,Jackie's reputation taking a weekly hit and the Oz stuff still hanging in the background it really does feel like there is a sea change coming in the Summer.

Small club or not every club needs strong leadership and a clear vision and there seems,for me anyway,so much uncertainty surrounding the club just now.

The only constant is the fans and we will still all be here win,lose or draw till we all peg it.

But do questions need asked (and answered) of certain individuals at the moment?Most definitely.

My Mole in the hole was shocked about the Stevie Campbell thing as as far as he understands he is a full time member of staff and therefore does not have a temperary contract. exact words were 'That's a load of Pish'  
 

Defo not pish,unfortunately.

His contract is up and from what i was told he only wants to be at Utd,so isn't angling for a move elsewhere or owt.
 

mass debates he is 100% on a contract that is up in the summer mate

If it has to come down to a choice between Stevie Campbell and Jackie McNamara then Stevie wins everytime.

TEK sums my feelings up perfectly btw. Seek.
