  1. Guys and Girls . I have been a member for a while but not posted , too frightened as i would lose it and go off on a major rant after some of the rubbish i have had to watch this season on the pitch from our overpaid players and management and coaching staff . However i love the Rangers with all my heart .First game 1956 v Falkirk , under the lights with the old silky blue shorts " floodlight strip " on . Won 5-2 i think ( Alex Scott hatrick ). i moved to Bradford in 1973 and was captivated by " City " who played in the old 4th division ( could have watched L666ds Utd of the Bremner team just as easy but did not . Come back to them ) .Followed City everywhere to some right shit holes and the old Valley Parade was one of the worst .Was a Season Ticket holder in the area where the fire started , with my son who was 8 at the time , but after 9 happy years in Yorkshire i moved home 6 months before the fire against Lincoln ( lets not forget some Lincoln fans died as well .) But for circumstances i would have been there . Here comes the rub . The day of the Ibrox disaster i was shopping with my soon to be wife at the time as we were about to get married and missed the game ( guess where i normally stood ) and heard about it in the mist at Queen Street Station .Again but for circumstances .... Bradford are strong in my heart but there is only one Rangers and before i hear any " you cannot support 2 teams " the finest football memory in my whole time in England was pulling into Leicester Forrest East service station just as Colin Stein bulleted that header into the net at Easter Road , getting out the car and doing a War Dance But ladies and Gents there i differ here from Bob Shankly . Life is more important than football at the 2 teams i support there are 2 memorials to the 56 and the 66 and everytime i go back to Valley Parade i pay homage and i pay plenty of respectful moments at our memorial as it was only by chance i was not at both games . Coming back to L666DS . Yes Stuart was playing and check it he spent the rest of the day and night searching for his father who was at the game and found him hours later in a hospital in Wakefield i believe .We played L666DS the next season at the Odsal Rugby League Ground . The L666ds fan overturned Chip vans inside the staadium and SET THEM ON FIRE i have hated them almost as much as ra sellik ever since . To the guys at BF3 who made this season " a hoot " cheers . I am renewing and now i have made this post my next ones will be about the dross on the pitch !
