Dundee United had our annual dinner last night to induct new members into the Hall of Fame. The event was started in 2008 and 38 people have been included previously including luminaries such as Hegarty, Narey, Malpas, Dossing, McAlpine, Milne and Bowman (full list found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dundee_United_F.C.#Hall_of_Fame).
Last night a further five were included. They were:
Tommy Millar - he played 282 times at right back for United between 1962 and 1969, scoring 10 goals. He was a BarcaSlayer.
Graeme Payne - a graduate of United's youth system, wide man played 292 games, scoring 21 goals. Won the league cup twice with the club. SilverKisser x 2
Willie Pettigrew - a legend at Motherwell too, 36 goals in 91 and two league cup winners medals secured Pettigrew's place. SilverKisser x 2
Kevin Gallagher - came through the youth system and scored 40 in 188 appearances, including goals in the Scottish Cup final and of course against a certain Catalonian club. BarcaSlayer.
Billy McKinlay - Badger scored 31 in 284 appearances after coming through the youth system, including a hattrick in his final appearance against the wee team across the road. DeeDestroyer.
