Dundee United have set themselves a target of having the new man appointed BEFORE Saturday's clash with Aberdeen as the dust settles after Tony Asghar's resignation.
The 56-year-old quit just two days after Liam Fox became the second managerial casualty of a disastrous season at Tannadice. United chiefs say a revamped football department will now be put in place to coincide with the appointment of a new manager. And that could clear the way for the return of Craig Levein who remains a top target.
Furious supporters had Asghar firmly in their firing line as they stepped up demos before, during and after Saturday’s 4-0 humiliation against fellow relegation battlers Ross County which sees them cut adrift at the bottom by four points. He departed last night after four years in position and just a week after getting a vote of confidence from owner Mark Ogren at the club’s AGM.
