Season review

United were relegated, the season after winning the Scottish Cup for the first time. Ivan Golac, the man who led them to the trophy, was sacked in March and replaced with Billy Kirkwood. Kirkwood's record was less than impressive and losing nine of the final eleven games meant relegation.
