Take my seat, have a look who's playin, comment on Kenny Miller's woeful shooting during the warm-up then we are into the game

If it's a Celtic game or a European game I go in on the supporters bus with and get a cari-out

Depends if it's a home or away game.

I get up, breakfast and read the papers, get washed(I shower the night before) and brush my teeth, then get ready and then leave for the bus.

I get on the bus and we make a stop at a pub, then back on the bus if a home game will go to another pub for a drink, then along to the game.

Then after the game back to the bus dropping folk off along the way, I will get off and go to the pub for how long nobody knows, sometimes I go home for dinner then back out again just depends and other times I pass out.

For games at Ibrox i go to the wee Masonic Club in Bishopbriggs a couple of hours before the bus leaves and play some pool, have a few drinks of the soft variety and indulge in some banter.

Then onto the bus and over too Ibrox. After the game it is this same sequence in reverse. :)

Away games is just right onto the bus, unless it is the Piggery where we just find someones house and have a bevvy beforehand.

Unfortunately I can't get over to Ibrox as often as I would like.

But I would get off the bus just outside Ibrox about 12:00, walk to the shop, get something to eat and get into the ground as soon as the turnstiles open and watch the place fill up.

Then it's a a mad rush once the final whistle has went to try and find the right bus.

Get out of my bed around eight in the morning , do general nuisance such as essays etc , have a fry up , read the paper. Following on from that , into the shower. When im out the shower and hairspraying my hair into the welded work of art it is , I have the traditional songs blaring loud and proud on the Ipod. Get changed , top and scarf on and out the door around quarter to 1. Get the train from Milngavie to Central with some pals from Bearsden , hang around Central for a bit , then head to the ground for ten past 2. Buy up any fanzines/programmes/pieces of interest i've not already got , expand my retro collection from the stand across from the Main Stand which does the old programmes/videos etc. Enjoy the game , get evil stares from this woman in a red anorak who somewhat objects to my renditions of the Sash...sadly. Once the match is over , walk along the PRW get the Subway from Kinning Park to St Enoch , have a quick bite to eat wherever , meet my pals and go to the Cathouse/George Square or wherever suits till the tiredness sets in...
