It's weird, my bro in law is a big Staggie (fi Dingwall) and I've always had a wee soft spot. Steven Ferguson - a good jambo - also up there as CEO, and he's a really top guy. But yes, they can rot!

CJGJ Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 24 minutes ago, jamle1874 said: Tam Courts to be new Dundee UTD manager, Gordon Forrest could return as a part of the new set up according to the Sun Acting up as first-team boss for United’s trip to Livingston in December, due to a Covid outbreak in the United camp striking down the top-team coaching staff, Courts believes he, too, is developing. Reflecting on the experience, Courts is grateful for the opportunity and feels vindicated in his decision to join United two years ago. “For me, personally, it was a good experience and a bit of a baptism of fire because of the developing situation,” he said. “Also, though, it was a reminder that I’ve gained a lot of managerial experience over the last five-six years so it was relatively easy to tap into that skillset again and what was expected of me. “There’s no doubt that it was a unique situation where, yeah it was a good experience, but I was there to deliver a specific job for the manager in service to the players. “It’s something I look back on as a reminder that it’s where I’d like to be at some point in the future but I’m also happy with what I’m doing just now. “I think a lot of people expecting me, after I left Kelty, to go into a first-team management position but, for me, it was about recognising the skills gap I had at the time, two years ago. “I wanted to take on a different type of experience and, ultimately, making me a more rounded manager when that opportunity arises. “There were different opportunities, I was interviewed by West Ham and NAC Breda in Holland so I thought my next move was going to be outwith the country. “When Andy Goldie got in touch, it coincided with some chats I was having with the family at the time because my middle child was going to high school and I felt staying in Scotland, learning about the academy set-up, was the right move. “I really wanted to hone in on developing young players in the academy setting because I wasn’t an expert there. “It’s paying off, I’m working with some really smart minds every day and I feel like the club has a very well-connected vision for itself and that’s grounded in the academy. “You’ve seen this season that the club can be sustainable in the Premiership in its first season back and I see a bright future for the club where, hopefully, young players can be a part of that.” Dundee United's burgeoning academy production line will yield 'a bright future' for the Tangerines believes youth coach Tam Courts after debut boys make their mark (thecourier.co.uk) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newton51 Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Malky mackay becoming more popular releasing local heroes gardyne and vigurs Following the conclusion of season 2020/21, we can now provide a squad update in relation to players that will be departing the club upon expiry of their contracts in the coming weeks. Iain Vigurs, Michael Gardyne, Callum Morris, Jason Naismith, Ross Draper, Billy Mckay, Jermaine Hylton, Mohamed Maouche, Carl Tremarco & Tony Andreu will all be leaving Ross County upon expiry of their existing deals. We would like to pay tribute to each and every one of the players for their effort, commitment, and support of the club in their times spent here. In particular, we would like to thank Michael Gardyne & Iain Vigurs, who have played a big part in the Ross County journey to this point. Michael leads the way as the club’s record appearance holder and goal scorer and joined us for his first spell 15 years ago in 2006. Over those years Michael has been an incredible servant of the club, become a friend to many and will always have a special place here at our club. We also echo the above sentiments for departing Club Captain Iain Vigurs. Joining for his first spell back in 2009, Iain has risen through the ranks with Ross County and this season led us, as Captain, to Premiership safety. Iain has built a great connection with our club over the years and will always be held in high regard for his contributions to where the club is today. Both Michael & Iain were instrumental in the club achieving the success it has- particularly the 2010 Scottish Cup Final run, our 40 match unbeaten run to take us to the Premiership for the first time in our history and Michael in our 2016 Scottish League Cup triumph. It is also important to acknowledge the long term contributions of Ross Draper, Billy Mckay & Callum Morris, who all played essential roles in the clubs recovery from relegation in 2018/19, and helped to propel us back to the Scottish Premiership at the first time of asking under Stuart Kettlewell & Steven Ferguson. Ross had made just shy of 100 appearances for the Staggies with Billy Mckay making 125 appearances and scoring 41 goals along the way. Callum Morris was, this season, our Vice-Captain and departs after 55 appearances for the club. Finally, we would like to wish Jason Naismith all the very best in his next chapter after returning to Dingwall for the second half of the campaign. Jason, who signed off this season with his 75th appearance for the club, was in his second spell here in Dingwall. The club is currently in discussions with Keith Watson, Blair Spittal & Ross Munro and will provide an update when it is possible. Players currently under contract for 2021/22 are Ross Laidlaw, Connor Randall, Oli Shaw, Tom Grivosti, Alex Iacovitti, Regan Charles-Cook, Jordan Tillson, Harry Paton, Coll Donaldson & Jordan White. Our Chairman will be paying his own tribute to the departing players independently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Foster has blasted Ross County after claiming they released record appearance holder Michael Gardyne over Zoom. The Staggies announced their record scorer and appearance holder wouldn’t have his contract renewed today as the Malky Mackay era began at Dingwall. However, former County man Foster took aim at the hirarchy as he claimed the club legend had been ‘dropped like a hot brick’ on the Go Radio Football Show. He said: He scored the goal two weeks ago that effectively kept them He scored the goal two weeks ago that effectively kept them up, he’s their record goalscorer, record appearance holder, and they’ve essentially dropped him like a hot brick - via Zoom, I’m led to believe. It’s ridiculous, a player who has done so much for that club - a player who could still play for that club. I just think everybody talks about loyalty in football. There’s no loyalty in football and no wonder, because as soon as a club doesn’t want you they just discard you as if you’re an empty crisp packet. It’s horrible for him because he loves the club, he loves being up in that part of the world. He’s been an incredible servant for the club and I think if you’re going release someone like Michael Gardyne at this stage do it face to face, bring him in. Not just over a Zoom call, we’re beyond that now you’re allowed to meet face-to-face. I know he must be in a bit of pain right now thinking about it because it’s been such a big part of his life.up, he’s their record goalscorer, record appearance holder, and they’ve essentially dropped him like a hot brick - via Zoom, I’m led to believe.

Pretty sure he has some trade business in the region. Have to be some offer coming in, can't see him sacking it in to play in League 1 down South.
