JOHN BENNETT RETIRES

Dundee United Director John Bennett has retired from the Board after fourteen years at Tannadice. The popular and well respected businessman said, “I joined the Board in 2002 and apart from a short six month spell have been there ever since. It’s time to retire and let some new blood in. “I wish the Club every success and I’m sure they’ll bounce straight back to the top league with Ray McKinnon in charge. I’ll be buying my season ticket and I’ll be there every home game cheering the team on.” United Chairman Stephen Thompson said, “John is seventy now and I understand his decision to retire. He has given this Club great service and has been a good friend to Dundee United. He will always find a very warm welcome at Tannadice."
