Rhys Weston thought he'd finally settled at a club in Scotland. The former City defender had been looking for a move North after playing for Walsall while his wife and child lived in Scotland.But after finally getting a deal with Dundee the club have gone into Administration.A statement last Thursday read: "Dundee FC are now officially in administration. Papers were lodged at the Court of Session in Edinburgh today."Bryan Jackson of PKF will now assume control of the club."And that means an uncertain future for the staff and players including Rhys Weston.""It has taken me two years to find a club in Scotland and now this is happening."My wife Kaye and son Connor have been living here for the past couple of years while I was at Walsall."I have been trying to get up the road to be with them and I finally get a club, then this. It is not done and dusted yet, and we will wait and see what happens, but it is not good."It is difficult — not just for us as players but the office staff and everyone else as well. We are all in the same boat and the uncertainty is the worst thing. These things happen in life but it is hard when you don't know what is going on."When I came here we were promotion favourites and everything was rosy, but next thing you know we are staring down the barrel of a gun."We probably know just as much as you (the media) but the general consensus is it is not good."We came close to this sort of thing at Cardiff when I was there between Sam Hamann and Peter Ridsdale, but thankfully it never came to this."It is a horrible thing to go through but at least we only have another day to wait before we find out what the future holds."Good luck to Rhys and to the employees of Dundee Utd.
