SeparateEntityMyArse 53,825 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Knew him well 20 odd years ago. I bought a new Rangers top that he borrowed for a Gers away trip. Turkey maybe? He only went and got coshed by their plod, spent weeks in hospital, got his mug shot in the papers and kept my top as a momento ?. A right good cunt, and solid Rangers man. Rip Buggy.

Am sure he got coshed before game in Bucharest. Then after it, I'm sure he said the bears were walking down a narrow alley way and got ambushed. Cunts chucking slabs of concrete from height onto bears below. He came off worst out of everyone, direct blow to his head. Didn't know he'd epilepsy, I moved away not long after his incident. Tell you what, that recognition from Hamburg says a lot, recognition and respect for a true and loyal Rangers man. ?Buggy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rfc_watp 1,503 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Was in Dalnottar today by pure coincidence and seen a lot of people arriving at the crematorium, looked a good turn out. Didn't know him but sounded a good guy, rest easy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
