It seems quiet on this forum with very few posts the last couple of days.
I reckon it may be the lack of activity from the “moanalots”, who generally swamp the board from around 5pm Saturday until the following Saturday.
No warchest, failed chippy mon, parachute payments, shyte manager, crap signings, two up front,look how well Tavs and wags are doing, James McClean this, Callum Macmanaman that,
You all know who you are, it sticks out like a sore thumb. :lol:
I look forward to being swamped again if we lose, or even draw with PV on satdy.

Evening Telegraph
Dundee United have finally got their man landing Wigan’s Billy McKay.
The 26-year-old will join the Tannadice side on a season-long loan….
first a fee now a loan sounds like they couldn’t afford both the transfer and wages
The courier
Billy McKay is on the verge of becoming a Dundee United player after agreeing a season-long loan switch.
A complicated process between United, Wigan Athletic and the player’s representative is nearing a conclusion.
United agreed a £200,000 transfer fee for the former Inverness Caledonian Thistle man earlier this week, as well as terms with the Northern Ireland international.
But the move stalled after McKay couldn’t agree a severance package with the Latics.
In order to secure Jackie McNamara’s number one target, United have settled on the loan switch.
Should the move prove to be a successful one, it could of course become a permanent transfer.
It now remains to be seen whether the paperwork can be concluded in time to allow McKay to play against Ross County tomorrow.
Jordi’s back
Jordy Hiwula and Emyr Huws in loan swap between Latics and Huddersfield Town.
“As regards Emyr, he told me clearly he did not want to stay at the club in League One,” Caldwell added. “I feel that is disrespectful to his team mates, myself, the chairman and the supporters.
“He is a quality player but the bottom line is that we need 100% commitment and every single member of the squad pulling in the same direction. It has been a disappointing situation but we have got a tremendous group of players in our dressing room and we move on.”
Huws signed for Latics, initially on loan, from Manchester City in the summer of 2014, which was made into a permanent transfer on transfer deadline day in September 2014. His first season at the club was interrupted by injury, however, and he featured in only 16 league matches in total, including one as a substitute.
MCKAY FEE AGREED
Dundee United have agreed a fee of £200,000 with Wigan Athletic for Billy Mckay, according to Sky Sources.
It is understood the striker has yet to agree personal terms but he could be available to play for Jackie McNamara’s side against Ross County on Saturday.
But until the deal is finalised – and Mckay’s wage demands could be a stumbling block – McNamara is refusing to confirm the player is on his way to Tannadice
This is how a transfer is made in football for the educated ones on here even Donny
The Dundee Evening Telegraph are reporting that Dundee United have made a third bid to try and tempt the Latics to part with striker Billy Mckay.
The 26 year old Northern Ireland international only arrived at the DW Stadium from Inverness CT in January, but a lack of first team opportunities, both last season and this, just one start, eight sub appearances and no goals, suggest that Mckay is not part of the plans at the Latics and a bid around what was paid for him, believed to be £150,000, should be enough to secure the move.
With Billy Mckay looking set to leave, Shaq Coulthirst returned to Spurs with a thigh injury we are down to just two strikers, Davies and Grigg, expect some movement in the transfer market over the next few days to strengthen our attacking options.
Reading, Wigan and Sheffield United are among of clutch of clubs chasing in-demand Wycombe Wanderers defender Aaron Pierre.
The pacey left footed centre-back, 22, was a key player helping Wycombe to last season’s League Two play-off final.
And the Chairboys have started this season well despite suffering Wembley heartbreak on penalties to Southend.
Pierre has responded by already scoring twice this term and helping Gareth Ainsworth’s second-placed side keep two clean sheets.
Ainsworth won’t want to lose his star centre-half given Anthony Stewart has been ruled out until Christmas after picking up an injury in the Capital One Cup clash against Fulham earlier this month.
