Dundee United in bid to stop Rangers using St Andrews training base as Steven Gerrard eyes pre season change

[rangers1962]

Security concerns?

I'm not sure our coaching team will be trying to nick too many ideas from the Utd back room training sessions.

Brilliant lol

 

[Tommy48]

Why not go to England's St.George's complex and really wind up the haters. Weather would probably be better and it's out of the way.

 

[Coopers left foot.]

Can we take the base that England had at Middlesbrough, facilities must be great there. Knew Gibson invested a lot into the Riverside and the training complex

Is that not St Georges England train at at?

 

[The Pontiac Bandit]

Or as the gaffer calls them “Dundee.”

We should just say to them 'what Dundee club are you again?'

 

[Blue Phoenix]

Daft question - what's up with Auchenhowie? Must be better than St. Andrews.

 

[Jase]

They've got delusions of adequacy.

Nothing but we want somewhere to different to prepare as part of our preseason

England currently using that as their Euro base

Is that same place as Scotland are currently based at?

Why? Inferior facilities.

 

[rangeral]

Why? Inferior facilities.

Can't be that inferior if we considering an option

Should kick their arses down to Gullane. Fish supper on the way back in Mussslburgh if they do well. St. Andrews - bah!

Wouldn't do them any harm!

 

[Mr Wilton]

This story falls down on many levels, but mainly at the suggestion that we’re “rivals”! Dundee Utd are a diddy club with a diddy club mentality!

 

[gersandproud]

Just when I thought the mentality of DUFC couldn't get anymore petty than it already was .........

 

[Recoba]

I just noticed Charlie Mulgrew the latte drinking w@nker is back at Scumdee.

 

[Roadrunner]

I take it that's a rhetorical question.

Yeah, suppose it should have just been a statement!

 

[Rangers8801]

I think they'll find that money talks

Dundee Utd's Hospitality.

Canny beat a fish supper and a can of coke tbf!

 

[John MacKenzie]

Re worry about weather have been up there a couple of times in July in the past and on one occasion got badly sun burned.A lovely place to go to IMO.

 

[jweebear]

I'm quietly seething....... at them thinking we are their rivals :shh:

 

[giogaddi]

Wrong thread

 

[Strathbungo Bear]

As a Saints Alumni it majorly pisses me of that the smaller Dundee team train at St. Andrews and that there is a University advertising banner at Tannadice.
As for Walters training sessions up there back in the day, I remember seeing the team go out on lash, they got hammered.

 

[muz73]

I think they mean fans coming to watch the training as it says the training facilities have easy access

I think you are spot on, it is a big area and has very low walls around the perimeter.

 

[Arkanoid]

Is that not St Georges England train at at?

I'm sure they were training up there and played a friendly at Boro, might be because Southgate used to manage up there. St G is there usual base, unsure why they wouldn't have been there. Maybe just a change of scenery!

 

[Kaiser]

Against my better judgement I read the "report". No comments from The Arabs or an un-named source said.

In all honesty, probably the Record manufacturing a grievance as we play them away, second match of the season.

Trying to keep a "rivalry" brewing whilst the Jolly Craicsters are loved by everyone.

 

[RoyalBlue1]

Dundee utd have a training facility??

 

[Sir Sasa Papac]

Are they preparing specifically for the rangers game 5 weeks early?

 

[A kind of blue]

nice little pitch near me. No decent hotels though

Put em up at your place.

 

[Walker54]

We have a top class training facility of our own, we should just use that if going abroad isn't possible

 

[Blueblood86]

Daft question - what's up with Auchenhowie? Must be better than St. Andrews.

Golf mate

 

[Let’s Gio]

Put em up at your place.

where would the mrs sleep though as I’d be tucked up with Stevie g

 

[Slim Jim]

Have Dundee Utd actually said anything?

 

[Div1872]

We shouldn’t be giving the Daily Retard any links to their story via the first post

 

[A kind of blue]

Not if she gets there first.

Dundee Utd's Hospitality.

Fush n' chups, as that ginger tosser Jum Spunce would say.

 

[Barrymoped]

Saying we had a rivalry would imply it’s actually close between us…………

 

[vinnie]

Rivalry? They fucking wish.

Hope St. Andrews tell them to shove it.

 

[davieboyblue]

You'd have to be a bit of a Dundee United to think that Dundee United are in any shape or form, rivals of us.

 

[Trigga34]

Who

 

[keep_believin84]

…only in Scotland!

 

[Vince]

As I've said before, we should be having it in England anyway if we are not going abroad.

Give the players a chance of decent, warmer weather.

St Andrews is one of the driest places in the UK. I’m not saying it’s Barbados mind you!

 

[Tamson]

When did they appoint a tramp out the boozer are their manager?
