Tangerines boss given full credit for revival
Dundee United goal hero Paul Watson has handed full credit for the Robbie Revival to his manager,
writes Ian Roache.
The Tangerines have been totally transformed since Robbie Neilson took over from Csaba Laszlo.
A brilliantly resilient display earned United a 1-0 win over promotion rivals Ross County in Dingwall and the gaffer’s record now reads four wins and a draw.
Almost as impressive, they have lost only two goals in those five matches under Neilson. The County victory made it three clean sheets in a row, against Dunfermline, Queen of the South and now the Staggies.
The players are doing themselves proud but Watson is happy to pile the plaudits on Neilson.
Watson, who fired home what turned out to be the winning goal on 15 minutes said: “It was a massive win for us.”
