A major source of revenue for football clubs are DVDs showing classic goals from the club’s history. However, Dundee United fans got an extra bonus on their recent release, which featured a team in orange (United’s colours) scoring an excellent goal in what claimed to be United’s UEFA Cup clash with FC Porto in 1975. However, it was actually a goal scored by top Ukrainian side Shahktar Donetsk, who also play in orange, in a completely unrelated match. Apparently a fane representative said: “This is an embarrassment for the club as it should have been spotted before the DVD went on sale.”

Sarcasmo says: It could have been worse. It could have been England’s own tangerine army, the mighty Blackpool FC. At least Shahktar are in the Champions League - perhaps the only way a Champs League goal would be seen on a Dundee United DVD!
