United finished in bottom place and were relegated to the First Division, their first spell outside the Premier Division since its inception in 1975. Summary 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. Dundee United played a total of 45 competitive matches during the 1994–95 season.http://www.soccerbase.com/results2.sd?teamid=740&seasonid=122 Dundee Utd 1994/1995 results and fixtures Soccerbase 12 December 2007 The team finished tenth (bottom) in the Premier Division and were relegated. In the cup competitions, United lost in the quarter-finals of the Scottish Cup to Heart of Midlothian and lost narrowly in the League Cup quarter-finals to Celtic. The club signed four players during the season and one at the end, for next season. Approximately £600k was spent on transfer fees. Five players were sold by the club during the season, with the club raising at least £750k in transfer sales, representing a small overall transfer profit.
