Prso's headband 35,428 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Never cried so hard in my life today. Seeing that man I grew up watching who fought for every ball and gave it everything struggle to walk was overwhelming. It really struck a cord and took me way back to my first Rangers game with my Dad and I took a picture of Ricksen taking a throw in that day, it meant a lot to me and players like that knew what it was like to play for us.Will never ever forget his face today. On the bright side some of the football on display today was really good. My idol Stefan Klos was amazing to watch. Wouldnt mind Gattuso and Ferguson in the middle for next Sunday as well.One Fernando Ricksen Band of Brothers 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

markem 7,251 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Can't believe I did that , good goal though, very fitting for the occasion.He's forever young Sheringham. Hardly changed. You are right bud it was a classy finish on a day when a whole lot of class was on show. Will always admire Fernando for how he is dealing with this. Showing more bravery, strength and character than what I expect most could Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NetherburnBear 173 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 A great turn out for a great guy. No Surrender Ricksen .sat with my 27 year old son reminisced about all the great players that were on the park and games we both have been to since he was 5. It was good to be a bear again then seeing Ricksen being carried round Ibrox nearly broke my heart. You have been part of the Rangers Family and will never be forgotten. Thank you for playing your part. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

derekweir29 505 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Couldn't have been more proud to be a bluenose today just shows what our club is and always will be.Shame it has been missing recently, and that the players there at present should take note of the passion and affiliation the legends have with the fans.

nemisis 358 Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Fernando Ricksen was involved in my best day and my worst day. Best day, helicopter Sunday, worst day, UEFA cup final Manchester. But once a Ranger always a Ranger. I love Rangers and I love Fernando. We are with you every step of the way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gsa 3,906 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 I've got to confess that (to my shame) I'm usually the first person to be cynical about such events. Today it was impossible to be cynical. Only decided to go this morning and so glad I did. Great effort from all the players and the support. A worthy financial cause and an opportunity to make Fernando and his family feel our support and compassion. From a human point of view it really does make you feel blessed to be in good health. If it can happen to Fernando it could happen to any one of us. From a football point of view it completely affirms why we all support Rangers. I don't mind admitting that there's been times lately when I've been completely sick of it all. Today it felt like the Rangers we all know and love.

now then forever 298 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 The DeBoers share a twitter account?!Yeah, when Ronald tweets he puts an R first and obviously F when it's Frank. Definitely seems to be their own twitter page because even other players from the game today are using that twitter address. You know the occasion was something when a player like De Boer says he had goosebumps. Still can't stop thinking about the game and Fernando.
