Tonight Dundee United lost a football match, took a pasting in Holland. It can happen.Â
In the morning the club will still exist, pick themselves up and get on with life as they’ve been doing since 1909. Without fail.
It is a proud history, throughout it all they have paid their way to Scottish society, paying Income Tax and National Insurance on time, offering affordable salaries to players.Â
Not every Scottish club can say the same. A decade ago the past caught up on a club from Glasgow, in their hour of need fans walked away with their hands in their pockets. Offered a pittance through a CVA, Her Majesty said no and the club was put into liquidation, never to play again, never to suffer a 7-0 defeat to AZ Alkmaar.Â
If tonight I’ve brought a little happiness into the lives of those who lost their football club’s history then my work is done ?

Let’s hope DUTD hump the Peepul’s XI in the SPL, and the Az’s countrymen, do likewise in the playoffs.
Genuinely sorry for DU tonight.
Dignity? No Dignity?
They are different!
Whosoever Jim Spence represents will hereafter be cursed. Every so often.
Absolutely fantastic, unfortunately he is a media minority of one when it comes to mentioning the unmentionable….he is in for a helluva time of it now…probably why most don’t talk about it, that and wanting to keep working.
Love it HH
The filth are dead ,knuckledraging thickos not a brain cell between them!!!!
Bang on Jim. You are completely correct, although many people with tunnel vision or no memories, including the SFA, SPFL, UEFA, who wished to look the other way managed to forget that a certain club died. They decided it would be better to forget this saga in Scottish football so as to line their own greedy pockets. This will not be forgotten by all Scottish fans this disgrace in football history. This team should be playing with Third lanark.
Well said Mr Spence,it’s just a pity that the majority of people in Scotland ” the best wee bigoted cunt try in the world”don’t acknowledge that at least DU didn’t go out of business for not paying their way ,unlike Sevco who should have been dead and buried.
