    He’s a fucking cheating cunt. Mcgregor should’ve been sent off and he shat out both decisions and never gave him a single card.

    And the forum is in fucking meltdown already.
    Jesus Christ, I mean it was obviously a shite performance and the tactics were shocking, but Old Firms are one-off games where you can’t really take form into account and it’s utter madness to write us off this soon because of one bad result.
    It’s the 1st of September, some folk need to get a fucking grip and calm down.

    A genuine world superstar legend of the game is our manager and just look what it means to him. Maybe Liverpool are his team but our great club has this guy gripped. Regardless of what happens down the line he's one of us now.

    It’s amazing this is only talked about in the run up to OFs at Ibrox.
    Also the atmosphere has been nothing short of absolutely electric the past 2 Ibrox games with 800 animals sitting in absolute silence watching their team crumble under the atmosphere.

    broomloanjamie reacted to julescotia in julescotia - A message   
    Hi guys, just a quick message to say that I won't be uploading any videos for the foreseeable future.
    I have always kept my private life, and that of my familys, exactly that - private.
    What I will say though, is that my wife hasn't been keeping great, that's why I've not made many videos this last couple of months or so.
    There has been some games recently I haven't even seen, let alone make a video of.
    And unfortunately the news we got this week wasn't what we were wanting, so this is just going to intensify.
    So all my time, effort and energy will be going towards caring for her for now.
    I know some of you like these videos, and are grateful for them, but I hope yous understand.  Who knows, I might post one out of the blue, but they'll be rare for the foreseeable.
    Cheers
    Scott

    I'm all for a bit of arrogance and self-belief in a player but the concept of Sviatchenko trying to give chat to someone with Gerrard's career is embarrassing. Maybe one day players will learn not to mouth off in the press. I see Legia have started with it too now. Hopefully they will get exactly the same response.

    The board rolled the dice with this appointment.  Putting a rookie manager in charge after the utter failures of McCoist and Murty seemed like we were repeating past mistakes.  Luckily for us Gerrard is the real deal.  We're playing a very modern 4-3-3 counter pressing system that must've been inspired by the way Liverpool play.  Gerrard trains with these guys everyday and knows who can do a job for us and who can't.  I really do think he can bring us success.  If he wins us the league this year he'll be an Ibrox legend.

    broomloanjamie reacted to The Moonlighter in A Plaque for George Goudie. The Man Who Saved the Rangers.   
    A few years ago in Lambhill Cemetery in Glasgow we managed to locate the final resting place of Rangers President George Goudie, unfortunately the stone marking the plot was off it’s plinth.Subsequently our team re-erected the stone and blast cleaned it.
    As a token of our gratitude, thanks and respect we at the Restoration of Rangers Graves Project thought that it would be fitting to mark Mr Goudies plot with a plaque, this was put in place last week.
    This is today’s generation of Rangers supporters saying thank you to Mr George Goudie.
    President 1882 – 1883 - Vice President 1883 – 1885.
    George Goudie was a Paisley “Buddie”, born at 2, Hamilton Street in the town on 9 April, 1859 to Humphrey, an engine-fitter (although later records would state he was a marine engineer), and his wife Anne.

    It would appear young George spent his formative years overseas. There is no trace of the family in the census of 1861 or in that of 1871. They do appear in the 1881 census. By then the family home was at 14 Union Street in Leith. The census records twenty-one year-old George had three siblings. Eighteen year-old Matthew and sixteen year-old William had been born in Greece. The youngest of the four sons, fourteen year-old Henry, had been born in Turkey. George’s occupation was given as “clerk”.

    Research has, as yet, failed to reveal how the young clerk from Leith became, within a year, vice-president of Rangers Football Club! Goudie’s first appearance in the Glasgow PO directory was not until 1886/87. We do know, though, that he was an accomplished athlete, being successful at distances ranging from 100 yards to 880 yards. It is not an unfair assumption that George became friends with Tom Vallace on the athletics circuit and he was brought into the Rangers’ circle through Tom.

    When Archie Harkness died so tragically young in November, 1882, Vice-president George Goudie assumed the presidency of the club. These were not good times for the Rangers. There had been no attempt to build up the club membership. The club was in such financial straits, the committee approached President Goudie requesting he provide a loan of £30 (just under £3,000 in today’s terms). This he did. Would Rangers Football Club have survived if Goudie had not agreed to provide the loan? We have to assume that without it, the end may have been nigh. By the summer of 1883, the club was £100 in debt. George served just a matter of months as president. He stood down at the annual general meeting in May, 1883, held at the Athole Hotel. Tom Vallance became president. George served as his vice-president for the next two years.

    The fact the committee felt they could approach George Goudie for a loan would suggest he had already established his business as a produce merchant with some success. George married Jane Currie on 14 April, 1887 at her family home at 20 Kelvingrove Street. George had been living at 89 Grant Street, a short distance from Rangers’ old Burnbank ground. The first marital home would appear to have been at Sandyford Street. By 1891, the family, now augmented by George, Jnr had moved to 20 Kelvingrove Street. George had had offices in Waterloo Street and York Street. Such was the success of his business, the family could afford to employ a domestic servant.

    By the time of the 1901 census, George, Jnr had been joined by sister Jane and brothers Alexander and James. Five years later, the Goudies had moved to Pollokshields, the family home being “Dunard” at 14 Leslie Street. George had retained his sporting competitive spirit, turning his hand to bowls. He had been a member of the St Vincent Club, then, on moving south of the river, Titwood Bowling Club. His final business address was in Howard Street.

    George suffered from heart disease for the last eighteen months or so of his life. He died, aged only fifty-one, on 24 February, 1911. His funeral took place at the Western Necropolis, attended by his “wide circle of friends”. The funeral directors were James Henderson and Co. Yes, the same James Henderson who, too, became president of Rangers and at the time of George’s death, was chairman of Rangers Football Club Limited. We do not have a great record of George Goudie’s time on the Rangers committee.
     That one act, however, the granting of a loan of £30, will ensure his place in our history will live for ever.
