Evening Telegraph (First Edition)
A look back at Tangerines’ transfer dealings last year
Made a bright start on debut at Ayr United but dropped out of the team as the season went on.
Current club: Bournemouth.
January 31, 2019 Calum Butcher
The final day of the transfer window was a very busy time for the Tangerines where Robbie built the foundation for this season’s success.
Butcher was yet another former Tangerine heading back to Tannadice and has become a vital cog in the United winning machine.
Current club: United.
Mark Connolly
Another strong addition to the spine of the team, Connolly has made himself a mainstay at centre-back. Signed from Crawley Town, Connolly has featured 29 times so far in tangerine.
Current club: United.
Peter Pawlett
Another who Robbie knew well after signing him for MK Dons, Pawlett has struggled with injury in almost a year at the club. That’s meant United fans are yet to see the best of the former Aberdeen man.
Current club: United.
Mark Reynolds
Club captain and an experienced asset at the back for the club, Reynolds joined on loan from Aberdeen before signing a permanent deal in the summer.
Expect him to play a major part in United’s run-in this season and next if, as looks increasingly likely, they make the step up to the Premiership.
Current club: United.
Osman Sow
Proving his fitness has been Swedish striker Sow’s biggest issue in the past year.
He’s shown ability in fits and starts for both United and on loan at Kilmarnock.
Just one goal in 13 appearances so far, though.
Current club: United.
Of the 11 signings made this time last year, five are regular first-team players with two more on the fringes.
It’s clear that solid base put together midway through last season has been the platform for the Tangerines to excel this time.
