Tannadice skipper pleads for patience
Dundee United captain Jon Daly has called on the club's fans to rally behind the players after an indifferent run of form.
United's Garry Kenneth revealed that he and his family were subjected to a foul-mouthed outburst by a fan following the recent home defeat to Motherwell.
Daly has pleaded with the supporters to stay patient and back the young United squad through this difficult time.
"The sort of incident with Garry thankfully doesn't happen very often," Daly told the
Daily Record.
"I would hope the fan who did it now feels a little bit foolish about the situation
"But it is a good club here and the majority of fans are really great. So I would just ask the few who do boo to give the boys a bit of time to turn things around.
Frustrating
"It is frustrating for the fans, for the manager as well as the players when things don't go right.
"But the worst thing that can happen is if the supporters start to get on our backs, especially as we have a young squad. It just doesn't help the situation.
"But when things don't go right that's when players need the fans most. We need them to encourage and support us to turn things around
"As I said, we have such a young squad and when the fans start to turn, you can see it transferring on to the park.
"So it would be really helpful for all the boys if the fans got right behind us."
