  1. If I show my wee granddaughter this tomorrow morning, she will ask the question, "But he did take the tiny Rangers bear home with him, didn't he, Grampa...". Your answer better be in the affirmative or she will hunt you down..
  2. Splendid find... merits a glass all round...! (Attributed as 1973).
  3. After posting that query, the name George Wood just came up as a sudden recollection. Shows you though... I did caution this was a distant memory and may not be accurate! I'm away to look into this further... surely has to be that same game. Cheers for this...
  4. Last time I met with Billy was at an England v Scotland game at Wembley and I simply can't find this online. False memories maybe here... my recollection is that our goalkeeper played for Everton and in a contentious decision, Alan Ball challenged him for a crossed ball - blatant foul - resulting in a goal. Anyone maybe help with this?
  5. Yea, just a spot on appraisal of where we are right now.
  6. Although it's slightly disappointing that, with the unlimited budget we now have, since that oil rich family takeover and now we can financially compete with... In perspective...? Aye, well said indeed.
  7. 'Willie Vandermotten (Stirling Albion)'... Assuming that's our 'Billy Vander', as he was always known to us - surely has to be, it's in that exact era - never knew he played for them. What heartfelt memories - uncle Billy took me to my first games (dad's job took him away from home frequently). 'Thanks mate' seems inadequate right now.
  8. There was a post during the game, where someone expressed the opinion...the performance wasn't acceptable, there should be no excuses, we've come a long way and should expect a win. How many of the team had experienced same... at Ibrox, on a night like this... Nerves? Of course there were, simply expected... It's an immense stage for the uninitiated.
  9. Challenging trivia... Who is pictured in the photograph we can just make out in the background...?
  10. The Leicester City fan who cashed out... '7 Mar 2016 · A Leicester City fan, who stood to win £250,000 from a £50 bet on his team winning the Premier League, has cashed out for £72,000'... Geez... talk about a 'tough call to make'...
  11. Therein lies the essence of what we were musing over Sunday night.
