Founded in the year of our lord 1909, Dundee United find themselves presently holding court at The CalForth Construction Arena, located in the homeland of Scotland.
The squad lads of United, according to Transfermarkt, tip the scales of market value rather precariously at around £9m. It's not the Burj Khalifa, but it's not insignificant either.
Donning the Dundee United kit this season are a modest band of 13 players, the typical bloke among them being 24 years on this earth. Young enough to run the pitch till their lungs give out, old enough they ought to know better when they don't.
In terms of grand adventures this season, United have their fingers in no less than three different pies. To be precise, they currently occupy the eighth berth in the Premiership, they trod until the second round in the League Cup, and managed to heave themselves until the third qualifying round of the Conference League Qualifiers. A tad polysyllabic, but such are the whims of football.
