STATEMENT FROM THE MCLEAN FAMILY

Jim was a much loved husband, father, brother, uncle and father-in-law, and we will all sadly miss him. His remarkable six decade career made him a true legend not only at Dundee United, but across the world of football. Jim’s achievements in leading Dundee United to the Scottish Premier League title in 1983 and to the semi-final of the following season’s European Cup are unlikely ever to be repeated. This is a very sad day for our family, but we will be eternally proud of Jim. We would ask that our privacy is respected at this very difficult time for our family.
