GF John 169 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 The real fans were there long before that when Ibrox was less than half empty. That was when fans were fans. 9IAR was good fun though. Some great stories to be told from then. Load of balls. The older fans were ther long before then, not the 'real' fans. I was born in '86 so I was only really of age to go to the football towards the end of 9IAR. Does that make me any less of a fan than someone who was born in '66, and so by virtue of their age alone was able to attend these mystical half full matches? Does it fuck. Catch yerself on and stop being an aloof cunt.Happy Birthday Paul Gascoigne. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real fans were there.You've shown yourself up there. Rolling your eyes and acting as though my age somehow denigrates my point, and using your own support as a tool for oneupmanship over fellow bears.Pathetic nonsense that should be reserved for the dark side.Heard a few stories just after Barnsley put Liverpool out of the FA cup in 2008 that Gascoigne had gone out to celebrate because he thought he'd played for them, when actually he'd played for Burnley. Such a shame that the great man suffered from mental issues. Sad to see him becoming the husk he is today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you play against the big tall slim tim, dark hair, centre mid, Shug N?Dont know a Shug N mate, it wasnt Windlaw the amatuer team, it was Windlaw Primary School mate. There was no tims went there. Tam was saying you lot had a wee shin dig the other night, a promotion celebration. Nice one mate. Does Dougal still play with your team? I grew up with him, a right bitter tarrier, we sort of parted ways when we grew up and realised what the rivalry was all about. My family were very close to Del S's family when we were growing up but i was more pally with his sisters and cousins than him for some reason, i think he was older than me. Im sure he plays for Windlaw too with Tam and Dougal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
