Harcus Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 The clubs have asked to change the date of the game from the 1st to the 2nd. Fuck knows why they've waiting till now. http://www.afc.co.uk/articles/20101217/aberdeen-v-dundee-utd_2212158_2246488 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrant Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 I think we will win this game 2-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glasgow sheep Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 This should have been done the day the fixtures were announced, I mean have they just realised that Scotland will be completely shut down on the 1st Jan? It tends to happen fairly regularly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azteca1903 Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 2nd suits me. Nice one SPL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 May well suit me too. Apparently United are not impressed, no surprises there. Right decision but a decision that should have been made months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajja Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 If both teams don't agree it won't happen. United are apparently contesting it, as TF said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ajja Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 SPL guy on radio today said that if teams can't come to an agreement then they often go with the home teams position as it has bigger commercial implications for them. Not guaranteed though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsr Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Absoloute madness, not the decision, which is correct, but waiting until now to request a change, what is that all about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebus30 Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 I don't see what Dundee would have against changing the day of the game, probably better turn out on the 2nd. Sounds like they're just being awkward for awkward's sake. Mind you at this rate, the game will be postponed due to weather anyways so the decision will be immaterial and we'll have 3 games a week in March . . . .

TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Going ahead as planned on the 1st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glasgow sheep Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Going ahead as planned on the 1st. Well only themselves to blame. Why suddenly ask for a change now? In fact why do the SPL even insist on having games on the 1st, especially in a year where the 1st-4th are fucking holidays? Ach well, suspect I'll end up lying on the sofa trying to sleep off a hangover while being further tortured by our performance and Scott Davies commentary.

TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 AFC to blame for a late request. United just being cunts, not like it affects thier income, cunts. SPL, never likely to change the date given how late it is or that it makes sense. Firstbus, just cunts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly struggling to sell hospitality packages on the 1st and only just getting feedback that the date is a problem ? Arranging games on the 1st is not ideal but in past years they were traditionally very well attended as fans were keen to get out the house, same went for boxing day games. Possibly cultural shifts have now put an end to that and the SPL are still playing catch up. Sofalising for me that day too. For the record, I think we will give them a thumping that day. Just a sense I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superstar Tradesman Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Is this a move by United to hurt us in the pocket in the hope there will be a lot less Reds in attendance? If it is, ach, scrub that...... even if it isn't, I'd like there to be a lot less Reds at the next United game on their turf. See how they like an empty stadium the next time we play them instead of us filling their coffers. Not like we ever win there anyway.
