EDDIE THOMPSON TRIBUTE & FUNERAL

Not much more can be said about the sad passing of Dundee United Chairman Eddie Thompson - I feel the tribute below from A90 Arab Society and Federation chairman Shug Falconer sums up how we are all feeling...

"Today is the saddest day for all Dundee United supporters. We have lost a wonderful father figure whose massive physical, emotional & financial contribution will always be revered amongst us.

Eddie`s passion, commitment, tenaciousness and determination for Dundee United FC and its supporters to enjoy the success we all craved made him a Chairman who was not only hugely admired by all Arabs but by opposition fans also, a feat that shows the respect he commanded not only at our Club but within the whole Scottish game.

The courage, bravery and devotion to our team shown by Eddie during the latter stages of his illness dispels the myth that there are no heroes anymore; Eddie Thompson is a hero to all of us.

We are all heartbroken today; the heartfelt love and sympathy of every Dundee United FC supporter goes out to Cath, Steven, Justine and the family.

Shug Falconer
Chairman, Federation"

Anyone wishing to head up to see the "Shrine" to Eddie outside of the gates at Tannadice on Sunday, get in touch with Bryan. Huge thanks to Gus and Craig (on behalf of the Glenrothes Arabs) for being some of the first fans to lay shirts and flowers on the day of Eddie's death. Anyone wishing to head up to Dundee on Wednesday for the funeral, again could you get in touch with Bryan. Thanks

WEBSITE GETS A FACELIFT!

The GLENROTHES ARABS website has a new look as from today.

After a successful run from its first launch in 2003 as Ian McCall became Dundee United manager, it has seen the reigns of Gordon Chisolm and Craig Brewster come and go, and witnessed Craig Levein take the club back to where they belong in the top half of the SPL.

All the old features will still be here, with the likes of the Arab Profiles, Player A-Z, History Section, Europe, Quiz Section and the Photo Gallery all to be updated in time. Instead of "reinventing the wheel", certain areas will now take you to pages on the Offical Dundee United F.C. website.
