Dundee United report loss of over £3 million

Dundee United have revealed a loss of £3,011,088 in their latest accounts.
The new financial report covers the Tangerines’ 2019/20 promotion season, which was truncated by the Covid-19 pandemic.
The headline loss was not unexpected amidst heavy, twin-pronged investment in the Tannadice academy and first team.
The effects of Scottish football’s sudden shutdown when Covid-19 hit in March 2020 also played their part in squeezing revenue towards the tail end of the reporting period.
Losses under Mark Ogren’s ownership now total around £6.7 million, with front-loaded investment in infrastructure – along with the aforementioned academy and first team expenditure – yet to show a significant return.

Dundee United player Ian Harkes has chosen a book for city kids to read as part of a new campaign to stamp out discrimination and encourage children to read.
Ian is asking children between the ages of eight and 12 to read The Boy at the Back of the Class by Onjali Q Rauf and write a review on it.
The book centres around a Syrian refugee named Ahmet who struggles to adapt to his new life in London until he is befriended by his new classmates.
