Sonnybear1972 8,130 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Never got the chance to head over to Ibrox to pay my respects due to a day off work with my wee lassie being sick but will watch as the legend passes by towards the Linn Crematorium. I stay local so once the mrs gets in from work ill head down. Rest in peace Fernando. Forever our captain Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are TV companies there doing that job, call me old fashioned but what the fuck are you even going to do with that video? Anyway, sleep easy Fernando. One of our own. Have to agree with you there mate. You take the time to go and show your respects but can't see a thing due to idiots holding their phones up to record what should be a moment to reflect on the life of a legend. That's the Facebook generation, too busy recording their lives and getting likes to actually live it. Was a good turnout for the big man which he truly deserved. RIP Fernando.

Think he would be rested tonight anyway and obviously was a teammate of Fernando. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Tav has obviously met him too but McGregor knew the real Fernando. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think they would realise a funeral procession isn't the time or place to be holding up a phone filming, mental. Cunts feel the need to broadcast everything on their shitty social media platforms these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe i’m being pedantic, but standing at the main doors of stadium in tracksuits to see cortege is poor imo. Could’ve wore suits and then changed at hotel before game.

You wonder how they would react to someone filming the hearse or running on the road to take pictures if it was their own family member in there.

SeparateEntityMyArse 53,610 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 I agree a lot of it was in poor taste today but its reflected in our society. Folk would video folk getting a beating rather than help. Clapping as a respect rather than minutes silence. Singing as a funeral cortege passes. Lack of poppy worn etc. Respect often isnt a true commodity these days. None of it sits well with me, but they did go along and pay respect in the (wrong) way that they think is right. It's done.

I can see the cunt that was live streaming in that picture as well. Must've put her phone away after recording herself throwing a rose on the hearse though as she seems to be clapping her hands there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ritchieshearercaldow 22,123 Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 It’s the way of the World these days, folk videoing stuff. It was a public event, different if they were doing it inside the church or crematorium, that’s for family and friends. I fully understand folk who take exception though. Proud of the turnout, rest in peace Fernando. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
