Back in 68-69 we played DWS Amsterdam in Fair Cities Cup sure I read that Dick Adv played for them against us
we  lost tae NUFC in the semis that is another special game I will never forget 

One of us:
Puts Jim Whyte on the spot as well, good on you Sir Bradley!

Said that to a guy in work yesterday.
The Catholic church and their care home scandals are unfolding, high profile celebrities are being outed and convicted etc.
I hope, pray and believe that in my lifetime that abortion of a club and those who corruptly abused their positions and influence to protect or support it are brought to justice and ruined.

Well done Gazza...the bigger man.
You're the greatest player to play in Scotland in a generation or more, you won multiple titles and multiple individual honours in your time with us.  As an Englishman, you're lauded by your own country (England) as one of their greatest ever talents and you've been inducted into their Hall of Fame.  .Off the pitch, you're the man who continually gave to charity and others less fortunate (over £1m I believe) without ever really telling a soul...you just did it.  That should be enough...
...but you told a "racist" joke once...something I'd say we've all done.  Your joke was an off the cuff,  low level, silly attempt at humour, without malice and without intention to offend, the kind of joke or silly remark that most of us have made at some point...but this time offence was taken and elevated to criminal status.  What did you do? You acknowledged it was wrong, you accepted that someone could take offence so you admitted guilt and took the punishment.  Crime of the century?  Hardly.
You also played a flute once and sang a song once or twice.  Like every football fan ever you sang apparently distasteful words, but in a private environment.  We've all done that too, other high profile players have also done this in public environments too .  But again you apologised for any offence, in your eyes it's banter, but you can accept some may take offence.  Crime of the century?  Hardly.
I don't believe you don't have a bad bone in your body, you have an illness which you constantly fight,  you're illness needs constant support. love and help...your friends and family all rally round to support...but that doesn't stop you falling occasionally....all that really upsets me is that' you've lashed out at a loved one...  Crime of the century?  Not good, but a you're a man with mental health problems (no excuse)and you know that was wrong.  You've sought help with that and been through the courts for that. You've been punished.  Recuperation continues though.
But for Scotland, and Scottish Football in particular, they want to shun you, pillory you, deny you recognition for your contribution as a footballer and erase you from the Scottish Football history books.  You say, in your own words, that you played some of the best football of your career when in Scotland, and us Rangers fans will 100% agree with that.  And that, Paul, is the problem.  You were too good for them.  You made them look silly, you teased them with the ball at your feet, and you joined in the fan banter to wind opponents up.  And then you compounded it all by scoring a wonder goal against a country's national team, that, outwith Rangers fans, didn't like you anyway.   Now that just wasn't on, and that brings us to where we are today.
It's not because you sang a song or two, it's not because you wound up opposing fans, it's not because you told a "racist" joke and it's not because, unforgivably, you hit your spouse...it's because you were a thorn in their side, it's because you played for Rangers and it's because you were English and scored against the Scotland national team that they've held these grudges against you that's resulted in this insult.  This is their revenge.  Nice people eh?
Gazza, remember, we are the people.  We are the people that lauded you, appreciated you and will forever hold you dear.  You'll always be loved in Scotland by the people that matter to you.  You're OUR and your countries Hall of Famer.  We are the people and you don't need anything else!

Probably not Bears Den but thought was pretty fitting given our forces day at weekend, class display from Vitesse why don’t we see the likes of this from more UK clubs ??

What a buzz having the mix bag of emotions back of European football! Ibrox will be electric!
the bears in Spain tonight done us prouder than proud! 

I normally just call them fenian cunts 

Give it to them loud and proud all bears world wide are with you. And most of all stay safe. 

In 1962 ten thousand fans turned up at Renfrew airport to welcome the team back from a friendly win  ?
Fuck all wrong with that mate reinforces the message to the players about how much Rangers means to us all and probably pisses off more than a few tarrier bastards, that’s always a good thing.
 

That early/mid 60's team was a great team and to watch them was a delight.

It was Ronnie McKinnon that got me to be a Rangers supporter. My father was a Junior football man , and my 2 uncles on my mums side were 1 Jambo and 1 Hibee and always offered to take me there. As both my parents came from large families and were on the young end I had many cousins who were considerably older then me.  One of those was Mary who dated Ronnie, I think they actually got engaged. I was only about 7 so not good on details. Anyway this got me convinced I wanted to go and see Rangers and not junior football or Hearts/Hibs.  My father finally succumbed and started taking me to games, home and away at the start of the 68/69 season and had the good fortune of meeting some of the players through Ronnie which for and 8 year old was a dream come true. Mary and Ronnie split up at some point but my love affair with the famous never waned. 
 
 
 
 

Tell you what though, opposition players describing us as “very, very aggressive” puts a big smile on my face.

Get over it ffs

For what club has naming a new manager before the end of the season ever resulted in an upturn in results/performances?
Just using us as the example, our seasons before Advocaat's and Le Guen's arrivals were absolute disasters (albeit in fairness before Le Guen's announcement we were in 3rd already).

Earlier today was my last bout of chemo for my ongoing problem,  I would like very much through this post if I may say a sincere and most heartfelt thank you to all who have taken the time to wish me well and to like my post "just now" it really and truly means such a lot and from the bottom of my heart I thank you all. Now as the saying goes it's both onwards and upwards from here not only for myself but also for our beloved Rangers.??????????????❤️❤️❤️❤️
