davis1986 996 Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 1 hour ago, DrFunke said: My grans a lifelong supporter and only this season has finally in her 80s had to give up her season ticket due to cancer. She has had illness and operations for the last 2 years and only attended a handful of games but still chose to renew. I emailed the club asking if there was any cha ce they could write her a letter as she goes through radiotherapy just as a thankyou for her support. She recieved a letter from Pedro which was very touching and also an invite to an open day soon when she is better to meet the manager and team, along with a pen, notepad, badges etc. Fantastic gesture from the club and manager for a woman who bleeds blue. :) Sorry to hear about your gran mate hope she makes a recovery Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DW1872 1,207 Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 I hope your gran is back fighting fit as soon as possible. Look after her mate although I'm sure you will. I bet she has a few Rangers stories to tell through the years and many great memories. I hope her day with the team is another great memory for her to look back on.

gsa 3,906 Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 I didn't know why but I always really like seeing older people at the game. Used to sit in Bill Struth rear and an older couple (70's) sat in front of me, tartan blanket on the legs, flask and sandwiches at every game! Always nice to see the older generation, they bring a degree of class to proceedings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
