Wonder if you wrote a similar article when Victor Wanyama did the exact same gesture towards the family section of Dundee United supporters in the 2013 Scottish Cup semi final? Of course you didn’t.

Dundee, Rangers & Hearts; 4 administrations & a liquidation between them. Screwed HMRC, staff, suppliers, sponsors & fellow clubs out of tens of millions. It boils their blood Utd haven’t suffered the same fate even after gross mismanagement which lead to 4 years out top flight.

Lots of bitterness towards Utd fans enjoying themselves. Today was culmination of watching club be stripped by Thompson, getting relegated, spending 4 seasons in Champ, unable to celebrate winning it & then being locked out of return Prem season. Long overdue & well deserved.

Rory Hamilton & McCoist trying to justify this result because of the financial disparity between Scottish and Dutch football. Rangers wage bill - £25m PSV - £20m Don't recall similar defence for United (£5m) when we took 7 over 2 legs against AZ Alkmaar (14.5m) last year.

This will be ridiculed but Pavol Safranko earned caps for Slovakia (ranked 29th) while playing for DUFC in Scottish Champ so no reason Shankland shouldn’t get opportunity for Scotland (ranked 52nd). Bias towards Celtic, Rangers & English Champ players isn’t working so why not?

Great win. I’d need to see it back but looked another dreadful penalty decision but thankfully it didn’t cost us. If Mulgrew keeps this up he won’t just be signing of season, he’ll be our signing of the decade. A Webster-esque impact so far. Makes everyone around him better.

When last season ended prematurely I feared we’d be forced to sell Shankland & scraping the bargain bucket for players. As it stands he’s staying & we’ve signed 2 internationally capped players in last 24 hours. We‘ve had many bad transfer windows, this isn’t one of them.

Delighted for Mellon. Criticism was far too harsh in my opinion but accept it’s a results business so it’s inevitably when you’re not winning games. Objective this season was to avoid the dogfight & stay up & with 9 games left we’re probably 3pts from achieving that.
