TRIBUTES TO JIM MCLEAN CONTINUE

28th December 2020

Across the football spectrum, tributes continue to pour in for Jim McLean.

From every corner of the footballing map, people have been keen to show their respect and admiration for 'Wee Jim' and most of the anecdotes and memories have brought tears to many an eye.

There will only ever be 'One Jim McLean' and as difficult as it may be to ever fully pay tribute to this titan of our Club's history, we will look to do so in the most appropriate manner.

Dundee United continue to respect the McLean’s family right to privacy at this current difficult time.

Our Supporters’ Liaison Officers and Board members David Dorward and Colin Stewart are in contact with the family. With their permission, we are working to have available an online condolence book for people to pay respect as soon as possible. 

The players and staff will wear black armbands and observe a minute’s silence ahead of the visit to Celtic on Wednesday and the Club will also look to pay a fitting and lasting tribute to Jim to commemorate his life and his tremendous service to Dundee United at the next home match and beyond.
