biggordy 0 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Word is that Dundee United have posted profits of around �£800,000. This due to being well run from top to bottom and not their enormous fan base. How many times did we beat them last season ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,186 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Not often enough... That's impressive profits for a team that seems to be improving and causes us problems in almost every game. Just shows clubs can work on tight budgets. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super_Ally 0 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 If we'd won the league last year who would care about our results against them (although of course to an extent the latter influences the former). We are not measured on our results against the Arab, though I take the point of the rest of your post. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 If we'd won the league last year who would care about our results against them (although of course to an extent the latter influences the former). We are not measured on our results against the Arab, though I take the point of the rest of your post. I disagree. I think the point about how many times we beat them, in this circumstance, is wholly valid. It magnifies that a team with far fewer financial resource, fan base etc have made it very difficult for us to get results against them. We supposedly can put out a far stronger team because of our superior resource, yet the results on the pitch would suggest otherwise. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gisabeer 409 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 But they are effectively competing for third place. If they were up there competing at the top then it would be a fair shout. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I think Dundee Utd and Hibs have to be looked at by everyone! The figures are great for United, but Hibs just keep on bringing through talented young players and have done for years! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurlock 0 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I think they are actually playing really good attractive football at the moment to be honest and probably deserve to finish third. The big lad Daly up front is a real handful, Willo Flood is quite a decent wee player too ! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kilbirnie Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 When will Utd ever do well again in Europe, or win the SPL? Posting a profit with no trophies to show for it is not a successful club. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
