Wind Up

[Corpulent Tosser]

I know it is football related and could go in 'sport' but it is actually a wind up and not a sport topic, so it is here anyway.

Dons (Aberdeen) fan signs up on a Rangers forum, makes a couple of posts and no-one is any the wiser he's a Dons fan.
Then he makes a thread saying . . .

Quote:
[i]If you want tickets for next week's title decider away to Dundee United, read here...
Since the away allocation for Rangers fans of 5000 is long sold out. Tickets for the home end is the only solution.
But as we all know, if you’re not on Dundee United's official club/supporter database then you won't even be able to buy tickets for the home end.

Here's what to do..
Phone up the club shop. And ask to buy a pair of Dundee United kit socks. Don't even mention tickets for Sunday. They will become suspicious.
Then when they take your sock order, personal details and process your payment your details will then be stored on their system.
Give it a few hours until there's a shift change, phone up again and order your home tickets for the Rangers match and because of your sock order, you will be on their system and you will get your match tickets. It's perfect lads.[/i]

Turns out, there's no such database and all these Rangers fans have ended up with hundreds of pairs of Dundee United socks and no match tickets.

This was emailed to me by a Rangers fan, I don't know if it is true but I really hope it is.

Got all the hallmarks of an urban myth.

Anyway, if true: Dundee purchasing manager overorders socks and things, "hell, how am I gonna shift this lot" then DING!
