Bear_in_Belgium 34 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I remember the night we beat Killie in the Scottish Cup semi final replay in 94 my old man stopped for a pee in the street not long after we got off the train at Mount Florida. I was just a kid and waited on the pavement.To my horror I saw a copper walking towards us after my dad got back. I was only 10 and still terrified of any kind of trouble with the police. The copper put his hand on my dad's shoulder and shouted "YOU'RE NICKED!". I shat myself.The copper turned out to be an old workmate of my old man from when he'd worked with him at the old Centre 1 in EK years previously and he was just having a laugh with him. To be fair, my old man shat himself too. I'll never forget it. Maybe the only time I ever saw my old man look afraid in public.He's not here anymore, and until he died I was forbidden from telling my mum about the time he got caught having a pee in the street at the fitba. When I eventually told her she was still furious!Anyone else got any strong memories about going to the game that aren't necessarily connected to the game itself?

Inigo 32,524 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 My first game that I remember at Ibrox it was pay at the gate. I got in and then the turnstyles were locked so I was left inside the stadium with my dad outside. The steward was a prick and wouldn't let my dad in at first, despite him shouting at him 'but that's my son'. Eventually, as my dad became more aggressive, he was let in. A dramatic first few steps into Ibrox for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eck the bear 106 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 A guy told me he was at the 1976 SCSF against Motherwell, Motherwell leading 2-0 at half time, the guy decided to climb the railings between the Rangers end and the enclosure facing the main stand, where the Well fans were housed, so that he could go and get a pie & bovril because they never had those facilities in the terraces in those days. He had got to the top of the fence and a Well fan looked up in horror and shouted, "HERE THEY COME", panic ensued and a big gap opened up because the Well fans had bolted.

stevotrueblue 382 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 too many to remember all,, but one that springs to mind was the killie game we lost at home towards the end of the season we where going for 10 in a row. I had 4 seats back then in the clubdeck through my dads work. I took up a couple of lads from the local and my girlfriends wee brother. One mate stevie was a killie fan / celtic fan (claimed to be more a killie fan) and the wee brother was a killie fan,,, the other lad Bobby was a bear.On the way up the brother asked if killie win the day can we put our scarves on later on the way home in the car. Thinking they had little to fuck all chance in hell of winning me and Bobby laughed and said aye why no wee man.Needless to say on our way out of Ibrox in the car both stevie and wee brother put their scarves out the window (not sure but think steve had his celtic yin but might have been a killie wan) and we got the kind of reception you would expect,,.As we pulled up to these set of lights another car came along side and its window came down. Stevie who was driving lowered his scarf and window to see it was his boss in the car. The Boss made some chit chat wae him for a few mins and then before driving off when the light went green,, says " and another thing stevie I saw yer scarf and know what team ye really follow,,,so dont bother coming in to work on monday ye wee rat cunt" and drove off.So me and Bobby still had the last laugh Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Reminds me of when my wee bro was meeting us at Ibrox before the game but was late and me and my dad were looking all over for him, when i spotted him we walked towards my dad and my bro said something that made me laugh, so the games already kicked off and my dad sees us and it looks like were just wandering about having a laugh so he shouts "FUCKIN MOOOOVE!!" My Dad can shout loud as fuck and didnt realize there was a polis right behind him and me and my brother are like "aw shit here we go", the polis grabs my dad and starts asking if hes drunk etc (which he wasnt) and starts ranting and raving about breaches of the peace, luckily my dad held his tongue and he let us go in but my dad gave us pelters over it.My dad forbids us from telling my mum what we get upto at the football, the first time my wee brother came to the game with us we got back and my mum said to my brother "so how was it then?" He said "great! Rangers won 2-0 and dad had 6 pints!" He learned his lesson shortly after.Always get wee memories about me and my old boy in these threads, i mind Walters 1st game back, the 4th went in and my dad turned to me saying "thatll do us" smiling handing me his coupon with Rangers 4-0 on it, we'd been pish up till then but my Dad as a true Ger kept the faith and still does. Then the 5th went in a burst his coupon!Cannae wait to get back to the football with my old boy for the hearts game! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
