Fizzy Pop Trophy

If they aren't saying this then it's just you then?

No Dundee fan cares about the lower leagues cup, Dundee were mostly sh1t in it. What I would ask you guys, when did you last win the 2nd-tier of Scottish football, to really say you deserve to be in the top league? Coming 2nd has never been an option for my club, bar the nonsense of club 12. So when did your club last win the right to be in the top league, rather than go up by default?

If a team wins a playoff they deserve to be promoted. Bet you're one of these funny folk that don't think United beat the fun in the league cup this season.

So, 'no Dundee fan cares about the lower leagues cup?' Are you seriously suggesting that Dundee FC have not deliberately and regularly sought relegation from the top tier in order to try and win some silverware, i.e. The Championship and its former names, as well as the beloved Fizzy? This goes all the way back to the late 70s. United on the other hand have only qualified for these Dundee FC winnable competitions, through the relegation process twice. The first time was a brief hiccup for a season when we never lost a goal throughout the whole tournament, losing out on penalties in the Final to Stenhousemuir. In Dundee FC understanding, that game was a draw and United are actually joint winners with Stennie! Second time round we won it outright and have a firm grasp on the jug handles. Hopefully this year will make us three times winners (In Dundee FC terms).

As has been stated by one erudite poster, winning the right to compete in the Premier league lies with both the outright winners of the Championship and those who gain entry by the play offs, etc. However, this is where the aural members have to be pinned back for maximum reception. The 'right to remain' in the Premier League rests with those teams who avoid the basement position (coincidentally where Dundee FC currently stand) and those who fail to remain via the playoffs. It is highly noteworthy that Dundee FC have regularly 'lost' the right to remain in the Premier League many times and seem determined to continue that pattern for this coming season. They are truly the Scottish Premier League's 'Dexiters,' ....basically opting for out when every other team wants to remain 'in.' They apparently have an abject aversion to Europe, preferring competitions they can attain some status in.

At the moment, United are winning the right to re-enter the Premier League, a right they lost two seasons ago.

Smeds my dear friend, you could have used one word instead of three, i.e. 'Truth!'

Tis why they and their club are the fun. They do what it says on the tin! even in their moments of superiority.
