A guard of honour tonight for a Dundee Utd team that will be officially champions by avoiding defeat.

Scottish football needs more hatred, not this tin pot let's be pals nonsense.

mentally challenged behaviour

mentally challenged behaviour

I don't see how. It's a common occurrence all over the sporting world.

 

[Scarface]

Crackpots.

 

[gsobers96]

Embarrassing

 

[JC85]

I don't see how. It's a common occurrence all over the sporting world.

Aye after a team wins the league.

 

[Mendes Loyal]

I don't see how. It's a common occurrence all over the sporting world.

They haven't won the league yet

 

[paphosranger]

Aye after a team wins the league.

They have won the league though.

 

[JC85]

They have won the league though.

No they haven't? Hence why the tweet starts with "although not quite mathematically confirmed".

 

[paphosranger]

They haven't won the league yet

Mathematically no, but technically there's still a chance of me pumping Kylie. I know what is more likely to happen.

 

[Bristol_bnose3]

I'm sure Raith Rovers are delighted to read this shite.

 

[paphosranger]

No they haven't? Hence why the tweet starts with "although not quite mathematically confirmed".

Aye okay then, two games left and a better goal difference of 36 but they haven't won the league.

 

[Mendes Loyal]

Mathematically no, but technically there's still a chance of me pumping Kylie. I know what it more likely to happen.

Never say never pal

 

[paphosranger]

I'm sure Raith Rovers are delighted to read this shite.

It might motivate them into winning tomorrow 30-0 instead of 29-0 to take it to the final day, you never know.

 

[paphosranger]

Never say never pal

I should be so lucky mate

 

[Scarface]

Aye okay then, two games left and a better goal difference of 36 but they haven't won the league.

No. Not yet.

 

[Trafalgar]

I don't see how. It's a common occurrence all over the sporting world.

Yes when they are champions. They need to beat Airdrie to confirm that. Pathetic from Airdrie to even consider this

 

[JC85]

Aye okay then, two games left and a better goal difference of 36 but they haven't won the league.

That's fine but they've still not won it so why the rush to give them a guard of honour? It's pathetic behaviour.

 

[paphosranger]

Yes when they are champions. They need to beat Airdrie to confirm that. Pathetic from Airdrie to even consider this

They don't need to beat Airdrie at all.

 

[paphosranger]

That's fine but why the rush to give them a guard of honour? It's pathetic behaviour.

Because it's the sporting thing to do? They can't exactly acknowledge the winners tomorrow, can they?

 

[Orange Peel]

I don't see how. It's a common occurrence all over the sporting world.

Jeezo.

 

[Ian1872]

Because it's the sporting thing to do? They can't exactly acknowledge the winners tomorrow, can they?

Its grandstanding nonsense.

If Airdrie win tonight, they've applauded a team onto the park who will walk off it, still awaiting their title winning credentials to be confirmed.

This is a step above teams in the same league tweeting each other to congratulate them on title wins. Brutal.

 

[Mad John]

I should be so lucky mate

Lucky, Lucky, Lucky

 

[Broom-loneranger]

But...why?

 

[Number_9]

Mathematically no, but technically there's still a chance of me pumping Kylie. I know what it more likely to happen.

You looking for a guard of honour just before you enter her

 

[SamEng]

Because it's the sporting thing to do? They can't exactly acknowledge the winners tomorrow, can they?

It's bloody nonsense.Congratulations you will probably be the champions.

 

[gsobers96]

Airdrie a late contender for the title of most tinpot club in the country this year. But will it be enough to overtake Dundee’s seemingly insurmountable lead.

 

[paphosranger]

It's bloody nonsense.Congratulations you will probably be the champions.

There's a lot more things in the world to be worked up over than a football team being congratulated for winning a league that will happen unless they lose 20-0.

 

[Trafalgar]

They don't need to beat Airdrie at all.

Are they officially champions before the game kicks off? No
If they want to be sporting and Dundee are champions at full time then clap them off the pitch.
You'd be happy for us to do this for the scum?

 

[Bear84]

I'll never understand why anyone would give another team a guard of honor.

Birthday card pish

 

[McCoist’sTinHat]

No they haven't? Hence why the tweet starts with "although not quite mathematically confirmed".

Gies peace. They aren’t going to lose their next two games with a -36 goal difference. They’ve won the title and Airdrie are doing the right thing.

Anything to appear to be out there and cause drama where there doesn’t need to be any. The outcry on here is because it’s Dundee United; call a spade a shovel.

It’s a sign of respect from a side who’ve been through the trials of the same amount of games and know how difficult it must’ve been for them to win the title.

I'm sure Raith Rovers are delighted to read this shite.

Not getting worked up at all.Why even broadcast they're going to do it?Up there with being first to lay flowers down where somebody died.Pish.

 

[paphosranger]

Why does it bother you so much? They want to acknowledge the team that's won their league, big deal.
Are Dundee Utd Airdrie's arch rivals?
People would be greetin' and losing their shit if the scum didn't us, the other way about.

Probably so their support know wtf is going on. Plenty people worked up over something untrivial as anything.

No they wouldn't.Its already been recognised we're not interested in this crap.

 

[paphosranger]

Plenty people were absolutely outraged Hibs told us to bolt in the Championship iirc.

Why are you defending them so much? What is it you don't understand? Dundee haven't won the league yet.

 

[SamEng]

Plenty people were absolutely outraged Hibs told us to bolt in the Championship iirc.

You've changed Scum to Hibs?

 

[paphosranger]

Why are you defending them so much? What is it you don't understand? Dundee haven't won the league yet.

They have won it bar a mathematical miracle. Airdrie want to acknowledge this. Good on them. Why the upset?

 

[buc11]

It's an embarrassing thing to do regardless.

 

[Trafalgar]

They have won it bar a mathematical miracle. Airdrie want to acknowledge this. Good on them. Why the upset?

Not upset just find it pathetic that a team would do this for a team that weren't champions.

 

[paphosranger]

You've changed Scum to Hibs?

They are scum also. People got upset they didn't acknowledge us winning the diddy league yet people are upset Airdrie at to Dundee Utd and not just because there's as much chance of a jumbo jet hitting the knew camp as them throwing the league away hence the scum comment.

Anyway, I'm out. I'll leave you to the tin pot club outrage stuff over something some meaningless.

 

[paphosranger]

Not upset just find it pathetic that a team would do this for a team that weren't champions.

Fair enough.

 

[Jeepster]

Guards of honor are the biggest lot of pish going. Grown men clapping their direct opponents like wee giddy seals.

Brilliant

[Bobby Russell]

Mathematically no, but technically there's still a chance of me pumping Kylie. I know what it more likely to happen.

Now that would warrant a guard of honour.

 

[Helstead]

Give them their moment of.glory , because they'll not be feeling that way at the end of next season when they'll be right back down again.
