cr3_bear 14,830 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Totally agree. I watched it in a snooker hall on parkhead cross that was weirdly full of Bears. It's in the top 5 days of my life. Is that sad?Not at all mate , a lot of my best memories involve Rangers Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
siddiqi_drinker 14,635 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Been to any number of big games but would have given my left bollock to have been at the phiggery for the 'Neil McCann' masterclass. Watched it live on TV somewhere in Inngerland but would loved to have been there.Helicopter Sunday is another one obviously Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Snook a scene?Used to go there after every home game wae my old man and pal years ago.Oh and the top 20 moments of my life apart from 1 would involve Rangers, infact probably the top 100.Yep, that was definitely the place. Would never have remembered it if you never said the name. Was pretty dodgy walking home with my rangers top on. Thought I was gonae get jumped but never thankfully.

thehost 11,061 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 the piggery when we won the league and kevin dunne vandalised property with the filth lying that he had his season ticket removed sums up Scottish society really those with some decorum winning whilst sewer dwellers, ne'er-do-wells and general flotsam act like unkempt scum Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibroxholm 2,276 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Advocaat's first season - think it was around November time. Van Bronkhorst scored a cracker of a free kick when we were 3-0 down.Think it may have been the last OF game in the league to have a 3pm kick off on a Saturday.Scott Wilson got sent off early. 4-1 down mid second half and Advocaat still insisted in throwing caution to the wind with his team selection / setup. Although commendable, remember thinking, if we get a doing here, we (the fans) are going to have to live with this for years. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazy74 57 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 I was 12 when Souness arrived . Id loved to have been at the first OF game that season when Cooper put Durrant through for us to beat them 1-0 at Ibrox . Had to wait till later that season for my first OF game at the piggery and we got gubbed 3-1 ...we won the title though !! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopCat 4,511 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Barca '72 and Fiorentina. Brace yourselves Manchester - Rangers are coming! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmcf 34,152 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Barcelona 72 is the obvious one. Others would be winning the league at the piggery and Helicopter Sunday. Wouldn't count Manchester as I gave my mate my ticket a couple of hours before kick off , but had a good time in the Man City supporters club. Actually didn't realise I'd missed so many big games until this thread . Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
harlands plater 16,975 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Barcelona 1972. I was at all the home legs but my old man couldn't or wouldn't get to the final. The 3-0 game to win the league at the piggery.Helicopter Sunday at Easter Road.The Lovenkrands Scottish Cup Final in 2002.The DJ League Cup Final in 1970.

harlands plater 16,975 Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 The guy should have been leathered on sight for a stunt like that nevermind being the recipiant of a bidding war.I seen someone pull the same stunt at Tynecastle a week or so before we beat Dunfermline on goal difference to win the league. He had 3 or 4 spares and was standing under the train bridge where the buses park and people kept diving upto him and asking for them and then walking away upset.A guy walked across and must have said ok, took him behind one of the buses and battered him as he walked back with the tickets and the guy lying sparkled on the deck. A copper on a motorbike seen the whole thing and never moved or radio'd which makes me think he was happy the guy got gubbed.I think the guy with the tickets kept one for himself and gave the rest away (someone later said)I walked past a Bear holding up a ticket near the stadium in Manchester, overheard a guy asking how much and the reply was "nine hundred". Don't know what happened next but I didn't feel too impressed at someone trying to rip off his fellow fans. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Haze 3 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Barcelona,18 at the time but going abroad wasn,t a thing i was able to do at the time,More recently Easter road on helicopter sunday the wee hairs on my arms are rising at the thought of it still.

Don't know what happened next but I didn't feel too impressed at someone trying to rip off his fellow fans.Me and my brother got tickets on eBay from a German guy, £550 each, then a few days after the game eBay reversed the cash transfer in an anti-touting policy, so basically ended up with free tickets and a very grumpy German.

K.A.I 36,183 Posted October 2, 2015 Author Share Posted October 2, 2015 Me and my brother got tickets on eBay from a German guy, £550 each, then a few days after the game eBay reversed the cash transfer in an anti-touting policy, so basically ended up with free tickets and a very grumpy German.I'd have got them and started a PayPal dispute the minute they arrived to fuck the tout over and then re-sent him the face value and said thanks.

Guest Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 My old boy payed 500 for his, but i think its cause he got another 2 on the ballot also at i think £35 each, so if you look at it as under 200 quid a ticket its not too bad for a once in a lifetime opportunity Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 The title win at the Piggery.I love a good old poisonous atmosphere, not enough of them anymore and although being in the pub was amazing, it would have been so much better to be there laughing at them.I was in Manchester but in the fucked up fanzone, the trip down and the buld up to the game was unreal, brilliant memories.They never turned the screen on it and it just became one of the worst nights I've ever experienced.Shite on the park and shite off it, just wanted home when the final whistle blew.

eejay the dj 31,964 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Beggars 2 rangers 4 not long after they had won .the then easy European cup.Also 1966 Scfinal replay and game where we won 1-0 at Ibrox in 67 Persson being the scorer I think Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

novosleftboot 6,285 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Eland Road in 92 is the one game I'd like to have been at more than any other. The press down here were giving us no chance at all, despite winning at home. When Hately smashed the opener in, well... I still have a sore throat now!
