    Drive to game two hours before kick off to get my good parking spot. Sit in the car on here with heart and hand or talk sport on. Head to game , put on a wee line and get some pies. Head up the road and have a booze. None of my mates are that into going to the games so always quite a solitary thing for me. It's the way I like it tbh, nothing worse than someone talking to you all through the game. 

    I agree with the talking during games, the amount of games I've missed coz I went with pure chatter boxes is unreal, plenty of time for chat before and after games and half time. In fact I have actually switched my season ticket a couple of times because of this. No harm to folk, but I prefer to focus on the football and chat when it's suitable to do so lol

    The Neptune was a favourite of mine on occasion, could be absolutely chokka at times though, 5/6 deep at the bar. I liked to drink in the Station Bar Cowcaddens then nip along for the subway. Back to the Station Bar after game another few then up the road with carry out. That was on a sensible night though lol.

    What's your Ibrox Match Day Routine? (I will refrain from using the word Ritual as we leave that sort of voodoo and Babylonian behaviour to our East End counterparts).

    For me I always travel by subway, i love the atmosphere in the City Centre on Saturday afternoons and the hustle and bustle of the Underground, then walking up the Copland Road, the buzz has never changed, I always arrive now in plenty of time as I like to take a stroll round the stadium, buy a programme, have a swatch at the vendors scarfs, flags, hats etc. Sometimes pop into the megastore just to have a chuckle at the prices, have a burger and chips then head into the Stadium.

    I know what you're saying but I think, as has already been said, you can't get a replacement ticket if that ones gets lost (or stolen by a dodgy postman!)! What's pissed me off is the fact they would charge £7 per ticket going to the same address. In my case it's 3 so that would be an extra £21! I'm just going to pick mine up because, if we get the good seats, it's already going to cost about £70(2 adults and a child + booking fees) without the added expense of postage!

    Charging £21 for the delivery of 3 tickets in the same envelope is scandalous

    Recorded delivery is a different service. Special delivery tracks the letter from when it leaves the post office until it reached its destination and it actually costs £6.45. Recorded Delivery only gets a signature when it reaches the recipient- no tracking 

    I know the Royal Mail offer loads of different delivery services, but for £6.45 you could get an overnight courier like TNT to deliver it.

    With 3 weeks till the game do they have to track them? In this day and age, couldn't they email out tickets like they do for certain rock concerts, flight tickets etc. I've been using e:ticket services from British Airways for about 15 years.

    That's not Royal Mail prices, I sent a 0.5 kilo parcel down south last week and it was £3.70 recorded and signed for, so a letter with a ticket in should only be about £1.20 signed for so that's not far off a 700% mark up.

    Got a good 3 weeks ahead of us

    Closest might be Wolverhampton Wanderers who have won every English division they competed in from English League North, Div 4, Div3, Div 2 and Div1 quite a feat in itself.

    And they have won the FA Cup and League Cup aswell, that is quite remarkable, are they the only English team to have won all 4 divisions?
