    I've seen some folk trying to trick others posting an article from 2006 from when he joined them previously - but he has said he'd be 'open' to it, hasn't he? That doesn't mean they'd be open to him, though.

    They would be mad to appoint him, yesterday’s man now.

    It just shows his supreme arrogance and lack of self awareness. He is a failure, a never won a thing ever, a loser, a laughing stock to most, a dinosaur who plays eye bleeding football, a man who watched hearts relegated from the position of manager and DOF. Wish he'd stayed at hearts

    Natural order, Potter running a big team in the big league and Hearts who he helped relegate........

    I've always liked Dundee Hibernian and it's a huge shame for their fans if this does happen, but at least they'll get to sack him.

    He's only 55! I thought he was much older. How much more punishment can the guy take?

    He appears to be putting himself forward for the job.

    However, if a lot of United fans are saying they won't miss Neilson's 'boring' football, they're hardly likely to be keen on replacing him with Mr Four-Six-Zero.

    Going against the grain here but I thought Levein was a very good manager in his day. Did a great job at Hearts first time around and also at Dundee United. His day is gone now though. I think the Scotland thing went to his head.

    Think all the speculation is from Potter himself.

    Can't see them being mad enough to employ him.

    When all is said and done that Tennents Soccer Sixes cup winners medal record speaks for itself.
    A squad full of detestable Jambos - winners the lot of them. Stats n that us Hibees just cannae handle.

    Astonished at the amount of United fans who want him back and would welcome him

    Why? He was excellent there before, built a brilliant side that went on to win the Scottish cup.

    Probably because of every detail of his career in the 11 years since then.

    Sentiment of times gone by will always win a few, though.

    Long time since he was last there though and I'd be surprised if the powers that be at United take a look at his record over the last 10 or 12 years and see much to convince them that he's the best candidate.

    If it stops him swelling the ranks of the hearts old boys on Sportsound then I hope he gets the United job.

    I'm sure he can do both. We all know how good he is at multitasking, look at his excellent record as manager and DOF at hearts😆😆😆

    Probably cheaper for United to give him the manager's job than pay for a statue of the great man to mark his many achievements in the game.:)

    Every detail? Rubbish as Scotland manager no doubt.

    Oversaw Hearts promotion and finished 3rd first season back up, thats a success.

    Few average/poor seasons as Hearts manager but did reach a cup final and 2 league cup semis.


    Its not a very positive or sexy appointment but I doubt he would be the same disaster as he was as Hearts manager.

    Dundee Utd are a club I really like. I so hope Potter the Prat doesn't get the gig. He'll only ruin them. They won't improve.

    I don't think his time as DOF whilst somebody else had managerial success has any significance in him being touted for a managerial position, especially given the manager in question is the one he replaced at Hearts and would be the one he's replacing at Dundee United.

    Both stints as a manager since leaving DU have been awful.
