  1. Chris Hegarty for me GB..Great work again. Proud to be a small part of what you're achieving
  2. Was gonna come up for this, but blew all me cash on bringing myself, son and his girlfriend up for Remembrance Weekend game. Have a great day everyone . WATP
  3. Gotta say in honesty, Rovers/C**y at the Gate was always my favorite league fixture, many underestimate the passion for a Bristol Derby. A good away support normally produces a good reaction from your boys so it should be a great day out for the 'Gers support.
  4. Whats the chances of Junior Bent coming out of retirement Should be a good day, bit of a regular in the away end
  5. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football-22278754 His dream comes true! This Saturday Crewe field an entire first team made up of home-grown players. It only took him 30 years! Remarkable coach, i taketh my hat off to him.
  6. GB, i take my hat off to you for what you've achieved. Thanks for all your hard work. WATP

  11. RANGERS manager Ally McCoist has paid tribute to Irene Love who passed away last night after a short battle with illness. Irene spent four decades working for the club and was a familiar face for McCoist throughout his days as both player and coach as she continued a family association with Rangers that spanned three generations. The family initially began working for the club in the early 1930s when both Irene’s grandmothers, Margaret Love and Mary Martin, then later her mother, Lizzie Love began as laundry staff, washing the players' strips and training kit as well as preparing meals for the directors and players on match days. Irene joined the club in 1973, six years after her sister Tiny, who to this day acts as a guide on official tours of Ibrox. McCoist said: “This is devastating news and our thoughts are with Irene’s family and friends at this difficult time. “Irene worked for Rangers for just under 40 years but her association with the club was a lot longer than that and she shared so many good times with us. “She was a great character, always full of life and had a great sense of humour and we will all really miss her. “Everyone at Rangers loved Irene and it is hard to imagine match days without her. “I went to see her with Walter, Durranty and Laura Tarbet a few days ago and despite her illness she still had her sense of humour and her bravery was evident. “She was a special lady from a special family and will always be in our thoughts.” The Light Blues boss confirmed his side will wear black armbands in Saturday’s match with Elgin City and at Ibrox on March 23 in tribute to a lifelong servant of the club. He added: “The players will wear black armbands at Saturday’s game with Elgin and also at our next game at Ibrox in her honour.”
  12. Just read on Twitter Irene has passed away, can anyone confirm this. Irene used to serve the players food on matchdays i believe. Irene's sister Tiny still does the Ibrox Tours as a guide. I’m sure the family connection goes back three or four generations – someone in her family has probably worked for Rangers for the past 70 or 80 years! Goodnight Irene.....Fantastic Servant of Rangers Football Club..."She Didn't Do Walking Away" Condolences to all her family and friends. Rest In Peace Irene Source: Charlie Miller FA ‏@charliemillerfa Too my lovely wee irene who worked at ibrox for her life died tonight loved her very sad love from all the rangers family and beyond irene x
  13. FFS, i knew i was pretty amazing before, but now i'm in The Hall of Fame let's be honest i'm Fucking Awesome!!!!
  14. After the most turbulent 12 months in our history.... we come out the other side Surviving god knows how many peoples attempt at destroying us,Intact and ready to build for the future, Financially stable with Attendances most teams would kill for, we have people who really care about our club on the board to ensure we're in safe hands and the most loyal supporters the world has ever seen. We're also top of the Division we're competing in by 17 points and will win the title with absolute ease. Lets face it our players aren't being tested to their limits, they're playing teams that are having their big cup match against us 3 times a season. Ally has done ok in my book, he's winning the competition he set out to win, if anyone thinks you're gonna see champagne football playing part-timers who wanna add a Rangers scalp to their list of "what they Achieved" you're wrong it's gonna be ugly and it's gonna be bloody frustrating to watch anyone who thought any different, needs to think again. This past year was about stability and moving forward...it's happening, and as we get further up the football ladder our players and managers will be tested and their performances will improve and we will look better for it. In the meantime IMO we're still working on the muddy foundations and it aint pretty, but it does the job it needs to. WATP
