United 'over the moon' to finish fourth
Dundee United goalkeeper Dave Richards admits he had "3,000" supporters keeping him up to date with the score in the St Mirren game as the Tangerines clinched a European spot. Jim Goodwin's side came from behind to snatch fourth spot in the Premiership with a 2-1 victory over Aberdeen and ended the Buddies' hopes of European football for next season. "We're all over the moon," Richards said. "It's been a long season. It's been a tough season as well but the boys have been absolutely incredible in there from start. "We had a little blip the last couple of games but we came out of it [on Saturday] and we've been absolutely brilliant." At one point during the game, with United trailing the Dons by a goal and St Mirren leading champions Celtic, it looked as though United were missing out on European football for next term. "I had about 3,000 fans behind me telling me that St Mirren were 1-0 up," the goalkeeper added. "And they keep me updated with the scores. "All we were focused on at the start of the day was just to do our job, do what the gaffer said, because we all believed that whatever we would come out on top. "We did that and it was a good win."
