4boysandabaw 3 Posted July 26, 2009 Author Share Posted July 26, 2009 Ralston said in the book that the club are making efforts to restore the graves of the Founders but don't want to publicise it for fear of vandalism. The tims to be exact. Would be nice if they could maybe erect a Founders statue at Ibrox to honour them Never thought of that, innocent that I am. Just gave any vandals directions.

TunnyLoyal 1,136 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 I don't think we should fear this being vandalised as I for one would never vandalise anything like this if it was happening at the other side of the city. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldnt like to think it would be vandalised but we all know what some of the knuckle dragging element who support that lot from the east end can be like.

grahamteuchter 1 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 I would be intersested in helping clean that up. Maybe help raise funds to get something sorted. Without these guys there would be no Rangers and we owe them everything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnny123 5 Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Our club is going to take care of a headstone, read that a while ago but seems to be taking a while. Rangers were supposed to be looking after this a couple of years ago with Sandy Jardine, I think, taking to do with it. Seem to be dragging their heels with this as nothing has been done to the grave. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be wrong but wasn't it Bill Struth's grave that the club were going to do something about after the subject was brought up at the AGM a couple of years ago?
