Funniest chant for me was from Bears at Tannadump, when the old north terrace was split down the middle with a fence and we used to get the east side of it.
There was a wee teenage Arab fan, who was pretty isolated from the rest being a right tit at the segregation fence. As he had shitty NHS glasses on, me and every other Bear there started singing (with finger pointing for emphasis)...
"National, National, National Health.. National, National Health!".
Wee guy scarpered greeting after a few minutes of it.

I think you're onto something TBK
Too much?
I actually find this quite therapeutic to look at after seeing a Septic tricolour top.

Fill the corners and stick on a roof. Getting soaked in the govan front isn't fun.
Renovation & upgrade, if a generous Bear wins Euromllions or we get a rich owner. 60,000 capacity all seated.

Govan done too (and minus intrusive arrows).

I agree with your reply Godfather, especially about costs we need to use elsewhere now, not on refurbishment and the stadium just needing some minor cosmetic work. I was also trying to think of a way to generate a cash stream that the club didn't need to earmark for anything else to make it happen sooner.
Like you said though, maybe not the time now and a refurbishment of some kind will happen in future when it's higher on the priority list.
Cheers!

After seeing the other stadium upgrade thread, it reminded me of some subtle changes to the outside of the three joined stands that I would love to see happen. I suspect many Bears will have had similar visions in their heads as myself. A few of you probably have even better ideas that could be implemented. I'm no Archibald Leitch and I did this just using MS Paint, but thought this deserved it's own thread rather than posting in the other one. Mod's can move this there if they feel it doesn't.
Before Renovation
After Renovation
Red arrowed lines indicate the club's crest and stand name at the side of the Bill Struth Main Stand, which I'd like to see painted in 2 locations on each of the other stands, with their own names in the same vintage style.
White arrowed line is highlighting the cladding at the top of the club deck stair towers, that just screams out to be continued along the bare concrete support column just below the roof line of the Copland and Broomloan stands.
Blue arrowed line is the blue framed glass tiles in the stair towers. I'd like to see the large rectangular open sections along the top of the Copland and Broomloan Stands filled in with the same blue framed glass tiles. If these gaps are required for ventilation, re-route it elsewhere discreetly. Install blue lighting behind this new glass for a night time display.
It occurred to me that these gaps were probably designed deliberately for wind dissipation or some other factors I have overlooked. Hopefully though that isn't the case and they could be filled in how I suggested.
The side partitions of the Copland and Broomloan stands at the Main Stand, I would also like to see the blue framed glass tiles fitted here. Replacing the discoloured plastic sheeting. Surely that can be done without it affecting accoustics much or the structure due to extra weight.
Then just general cleaning up of the rest of the roof's painted areas and exterior brick work of the joined stands would be welcomed. Maybe a colour change for the outside of Argyle House to match everywhere else.
We could also install a large "One Outdoor Media" advertising LED screen above the Megastore on the post supports and an identical one on the other side of the Govan Stand, which could be used to generate significant funds. We were meant to get one of these outside Ibrox in 2013, but it never happened and was only ever announced on the Elonex subsidiary's website.
To pay for them and other renovations, I'd sell strictly limited stadium naming rights now for the next two years for an up front fee covering the required costs. Before RM goes into meltdown at me suggesting that, I think there is a way to do this without changing the name. I believe it's been done in other sports, with the new aforementioned exterior screens simply displaying an association with a stadium sponsor. It could also be displayed on the perimeter track electronic boards up until kick off and after full time.
For example, "Sports Direct Welcomes You To Ibrox Stadium" & "Sports Direct Wishes You A Safe Journey From Ibrox Stadium". That particular choice might not prove too popular but I'd have no qualms with it myself. EA Sports or something along those lines would be perfect.
There has to be an acceptable company, that for the price of reasonable renovation costs get to be associated with our iconic stadium and it's name for a short two year spell. Rather than actually changing it. Any money made off the Ibrox name in this way should be wisely spent on it's upkeep. Surely we could make enough from that initially to fund this or other slight cosmetic improvements, if mine aren't viable or desired.
Ibrox is and always will be the best, just needs a little sprucing up using revenue raised to do that specifically for the time being.
Due to popular demand in the other thread, I removed the Family Stand sign from the Broomloan roof.

For what? Did I win an iPad? All I did was suggest an internet video game app' not incite people to shoot real ducks or rubber ducks, just virtual ducks.
That's the worst head shot ever all it will do is take the wee cunts lip aff
Base of the skull, tip of spinal cord. In duck hunting terms... RSPCA approved. Lips are a bonus, instantly silenced.
-
The site should turn this into a mini game where you can shoot the duck using the zoom button.
Boom Headshot!

much better than the one I posted...
On topic for The Dude your name and avatar gives off a "Jeff Bridges" chilled persona, which the OP doesn't exactly reflect.

You do know I'm not actually Jeff Bridges so all you've done is post a photo of him with tits?
Merely highlighting that forums and internet forums are 2 very different things. A joke you don't appreciate obviously. You seemed ok in the pyro' thread. Now you have your own one.

Actually they are also forbidden in all FIFA sanctioned competitions.
So whilst Legia Warsaw and Eskisehirspor may have done something that looks good visually all we get is some guy looking as though he's smoking 20 fags at once
Haha. Linesman looks like he's on fire.
-
Right or wrong, legal or illegal, flares and smoke bombs are gay as fuck.
Only in Scotand and the UK.
Legia Warsaw after being fined 30k by UEFA and ordered to close a stand for their next CL game for previous displays.
Eskisehirspor after UEFA & Turkish FA telling all clubs to stop pyro displays.
CG was on record saying if we wanted pyro, we would get some officially. Maybe he meant giving BF1 sparklers.

Think I'm gonna be pretty fucked when I turn up singing that version on FOCUS's greatest hits DVD, but what the hell. It actually looks worth it.

On the one hand I'm gutted because I saw Moonlighter's thread when there were two tickets left for that particular Founders Trail outing and I was going to buy them. On the other hand though, I'd be delighted if by me not getting them (due to a conflict of dates) I allowed more family members to go.
Nice gesture by the club too, but well overshadowed for me by the amazing work all of you at the Founders Trail do. I'll deffo get to one for sure.
.
Glad I didn't pinch any tickets from any family members but I would have been a proud bear hearing that story now if I'd been there on their day. Sounds like everyone in the family now has a good, lasting memory. This actually reminded me of GB's RM Erskine Veterans Ibrox tour day and all them in the pics with Walter Smith faces.
Some Bears just make you go Aaaawwwwwww!

Absolutely superb.
Wish I could remember who posted it originally so I could credit them, but it was a good while back so I can't. Whoever it was, thanks!
"What we could of done??" (of done??)
The title is a dead giveaway.
1st thing I thought too. Seriously though, I can't get my head round the fact that he has "Could of" in the thread title and "Could have" in the first post. WTF at that, never mind the actual topic.
