If this is not the right part of the thread please move.
Sheriff Lindsay Wood, Glasgow Sheriff and well known Rangers fan has passed away. He was always in the Director's box at Ibrox and like many Bears, he followed the team everywhere.
He was also instrumental in setting up the Drugs Court which helps addicts get clean and get there life back. He probably saved a few lives by doing that as he treated addicts as people who needed help and needed someone in authority to actually believe in them instead of putting them down as just another junkie. When an addict died, he had silences for them, such was the measure of his compassion. Woe betide an accused if they abused his rules though as he would come down on them like a ton of bricks.
He also made sure lawyers were kept in line too. I had a good few run ins with him when I was on both sides of the table but once you stripped away the bad mood, you learned that he was just trying to help you.
His Chambers in the Court were a Shrine to Rangers and were dubbed Little Ibrox due to the artwork he had on his walls. He was always up for some football chat once the business was done.
He only retired last May and there was a huge party for him, and he kept everyone well supplied with alcohol. That was the last time I saw him and we had a laugh over things I had done as a Junior Lawyer before he told me to watch out for his brother.
I will miss him
RIP

I often get asked if I enjoy my work as a Football Agent.

Of course, there are times when it’s incredibly mentally and physically challenging. Much like a player, but in a hugely different context.

But there are times when it’s the best, and I mean the best job in the world. Just like last night:

Benfica v Rangers in Lisbon, last 16 of the Europa League 1st leg - which ended, against the odds, 2-2 with Benfica coming from behind twice (with two gifted goals from Rangers).

Dujon Sterling, who as many know, I have looked after for 9 years since 15 years old, scored his first senior goal in 137 attempts (I’ve probably watched most of those games!) What a goal, what a new memory. An many also know, in 2020, Dujon’s career was so nearly ended by a sudden illness, that kept him out the game for 10 months.

What struck me as it went in, standing on my own amongst 3,500 delirious Rangers fans, was what it meant to so many others.

To Dujon: it was his reward for the battle he won in 2020 and never giving in.

To his Mum: a moment that emotionally rewarded her for the countless hours since he joined Chelsea at 6 years old for her love and support every step (or run) he made.

To the coaches and staff of various clubs/ England (to many to name): a wonderful sense of joy for Dujon knowing his journey and the part they played at some point. My phone went crazy as he scored.

To everyone at Rangers (staff/teammates): it’s a team effort from start to finish and a measure of the hard work put in by all.

To those partners behind the scenes (the boot companies, the lawyers, accountants, concierge, insurance, mortgage advisors, barbers, car salesman (endless list!) who know Dujon.

To the media/ journalists: you know who you are and who have never doubted his ability and spoken about it.

To the fans past and present: an unreal bond through thick and thin. Rangers love him coz he gives 100%. He is an elite talent. The fan next to me last night was drunk with a thick Glaswegian accent. Couldn’t understand a single word for 90 mins but when Dujon scored he jumped on me, hit me in the stomach and kissed me 😂 another very special moment.

To Dujon’s close knit friends, in and out of the game: you never doubted.

To my wife, family, friends: thank you for understanding and being there. Countless messages as the goal went in.

To my other clients/ their families/ colleagues: again loads of messages/calls sharing the happiness of the goal.

Football is the biggest sport in the world. It forms part of the wheel of life for so many, for most of their lives. It’s a tough workplace for all involved.

But moments like last night, make it so, so satisfying….and enjoyable 😉

Have a good day everyone. And never stop believing ⚽️ 💙

P.S. in the 2nd leg next week Benfica will experience Ibrox at its firey best. Can’t wait. ✔️
 
 

Ah so we can blame the pitch again?  

All on Barisic, embarrassing. 

Leagues done, need to focus on Dublin now 

This is all due to Clement.  He's made players who were looking like a lost cause believe in themselves and are now playing better than any of us could have imagined!

Pathetic sentence

Would never be out my team

Baldball. 

Sterling is a fantastic player.

😮‍💨

Absolutely fucking massive game

The Enigma continues.
Dessers can play like Lionel Messi and Sam Lammers in the same move...

You’re well named 

Mahomes is phenomenal, the amount of times he put that team on his back was insane.
What a leader to have in your team.
Great game.

All the best to a Rangers legend. Disgracefully treated towards the end of his time with us and should never have been publicly disrespected by, then replaced by, a con artist like Beale. 

He was, and he didn't even have a good game, which speaks volumes about the forward line.
He never hid, was always trying right up to the end with the opportunity for Dowell.
He also probably had our best shot on goal which Hart made a good save with.
Game certainly didn't pass him by like has happened to others on their first OF.
But unless we get a clinical finisher, we'll not improve there. We had our chances to win that game.

Not saying he was the problem today but he's proven over the last number of weeks that he's not good enough to be in the starting position he has found himself in.
Him and Dessers need to be improved upon in this window. Cantwell needs to find form or Fabio Silva will hopefully replace him too. 

It’s not just the Ross County team bus…
Theres hundreds if not thousands of Bears and Bearettes who travel down from the Northern areas who are currently stranded too.
