Everyone has an opinion and I found a lot of games , especially away, boring. We don’t all view things the same way. So if you wish to use ‘cautious’ , I prefer ‘less cautious’I would not say the style of football was boring when Mellon was here previously, even in periods when we were struggling. If anything I would say the reverse was true: he was always attack minded even in games when the opposition were greatly superior, such as the Spurs and United cup ties.
Dundee United had just been promoted from the Championship to the SPL and were competing with clubs with far greater resources, so it would be no surprise if they had to set up relatively cautiously.
