allgers 735 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I'm thinking that socks are there to keep your feet warm and protect them, do we have to make an issue if someone likes to roll them down. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WaltersGotStyle 160 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Not that it matters however I read somewhere that the red a black socks actually were meant to resemble ship funnels - which makes sense considering the govan ship yard Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronniemca 479 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Bill struth inspected every players dress before taking the pitch.every player had to have 1 inch of black showing above the red top, this was carried into the Symon era,remember bobby shearer talking about it.that was in the days when players had pride in wearing the colours right enough.

If we allow the 'tradional' strip to be changed what will be next, some of our 'traditional' songs, will others be allowed to decide the colour of our 2nd and/or 3rd strips?Oh, and btw Ally should be wearing a shirt/tie blazer in the dugout not taking fashion tips from his golfing buddy TLRB.

familystandloyal 131 Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 GET THE PITCHFORKS! Since signing for Rangers Ian black has had to wear the traditional black/red socks only twice. On both occasions he deliberately for some reason 'adjusted' the socks to 'hide' the red.Most seem to think it minor/trivial and my mention of it petty, so if the matter is so minor/trivial why can't he just wear the socks the same way as every other Rangers player before him? Surely for a few grand he week he can manage it, he didn't do much else last season imho. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
devref 201 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 who gives a fuck. the only person this should bother on the pitch is the ref. and only then if he exposes any part of his shin pads as they have to remain covered. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
