Popular Post johnnydun Posted November 12, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 12, 2023 (edited) Not one fan outside the OF gives a flying f**k about who wins the SPFL anymore, and it's been like this for some time. So I am starting this thread to create a Title race discussion for the rest of us. 3rd place in the SPFL wins you the Diddy Premiership. As we all know, it will be a much tighter, more entertaining League than what the SPFL can offer. We all want the OF to f**k off, so we can use this thread to ignore them, although Points against them help and bring much hilarity. Call it tin-pot, I don't care. The current setup is still worse. St Mirren currently sit in top spot with Hearts and Dundee 2 points behind. Edited November 13, 2023 by johnnydun 62 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it would take a bit of effort but we'd need to remove results v the OF to make it a REAL Diddy Premier League - not that it would change much except drop Aberdeen and St J down to the bottom two so on that basis alone is worth doing! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, if we don't beat them, what difference does it make, if we do, teams shouldn't miss out on points, if only for the hilarity. I would have even awarded points to Aberdeen's result yesterday for sending Boyd into so much rage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarbellaDEE Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 We, the diddies should all just group together and purchase a trophy for the champs. Would certainly make this never ending procession a bit more exciting. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree. The extent to which the OF gets contemptuously ignored needs to be official. Scrap all outcomes from the relevant fixtures - points, effect on GD, the lot.
