JRodgA2k8 542 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Despite the falling over...it just showed how brave and how much of a fighter the guy is...he wouldn't let the disease stop him from taking kick off and that says everything about the man for me.So proud to have been there and show my support but fighting back the tears was and is still difficult.

BigAmo'sThighs 848 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Eck teaching him the valuable lesson of why not to play players out of position Aye, that must be it Also, on a side note, is Pedro Ricksen Fernando's brother? I take it he never played professionally? On a side side note, where the current crop of players in the top tier of the main stand? Seen a group of lads up there from the govan rear but could've been anyone Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RD.1872 890 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Absolutely fucking brilliant to see 40k+ at Ibrox today for Fernando. Managed to keep it together through the full 90 but the speech at the end floored me. Tragic to see what he's going through and I hope he finds some comfort in that the whole Rangers family is behind him. No surrender Fernando Ricksen!!

blueballss 2,969 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Took the wee man to his first game today, he loved it up till the part the game started, said l was singing to loud and when we scored our first 2 he jumped out his skin. Next time l wont go in a hour before kick off, .Great turn out and nice to see some off my heros again, day off mixed emotions but just about managed to hold it togther.Ditto matetoday reiterated how great it is to be part of this extended family we so gravitate to!! i defy any of us to deny were didnt have a lump in our throats!! we truly are the people!!my son was pissed off by 1.45 and the hold up didnt help, everyone around me especially the boys and girls from calder with the sandy jardine flag in CR2 tried to cajole him but to no avail, only lasted 70mins, next time he is left in the center shopping with his Mum!!
