TheNuts 552 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Quote Stephen Thompson is stepping down as Chairman of Dundee United, the Club have announced. Mr Thompson, who will relinquish his post at the end of the current season, has been Chairman for almost ten years after taking over from his father Eddie Thompson who sadly passed away in October 2008. It was decided to make the announcement now to allow time for the board to make the decision on the way forward for Dundee United as well as ensure no distraction to the Club's battle to return to the Ladbrokes Premiership this season. Stephen Thompson said, "It has been a real honour to serve Dundee United. I have always tried to achieve the best for the Club and there have been many, many happy occasions of which I am very proud. The Scottish Cup win in 2010 was a high point in my and many other United fans lives. Relegation was a profound disappointment that will never leave me but the Club is in the fortunate position of having a very strong board of directors and a financial robustness that is assisted by a number of benefactors who have been very supportive through recent years. "I also believe it is important to acknowledge our staff who continue to work tirelessly and, most importantly, our incredibly loyal fan base who remain crucial in our aims of returning to the top league. "The most important factor right now is that Dundee United focus on winning games and securing a place back in the Premiership - without distraction about my position."

We Will Follow Rangers 12,933 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 St Mirren are walking that league, and dundee utd dont have the quality to get up through the play offs, hopefully another year in the championship will finish them off. Hope Thompson goes down in history as the man who killed off his own club, after losing a long battle with arse cancer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimfanciesthedude 24,556 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 They wont go bust no matter how much we want it, their the type of club that has minted fans who will bail them out at some point (budge at hearts for example) What we can take from it is that they will be down there for years and years unless their youth academy produces them a decent batch to get them up Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
