Former Dundee United boss Mixu Paatelainen (l) with Gordon Young Young said: Obviously our paths have crossed in football as happens but I dont know Ray personally. But hes done a terrific job at Raith, absolutely fantastic.I dont know what the situation is for people wanting a job like this but it would be a tremendous opportunity for somebody to start at the bottom and carve a new future.I think there is an opportunity to develop a new philosophy and a new pathway for the club.Its a big challenge to get the club back up at the first attempt but life is about big challenges.
