julescotia 11,407 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Where's the strangest place you have watched a Rangers match?I'll start During the 8-in-a-row season in 1996, with around 4/5 matches left to play, and the season still on a knife-edge, Rangers were away to Hearts, and for the 1st time that season me and my mate found ourselves without a ticket.We went to Tynecastle anyway in the hope of finding some. We didn't If any of the older fans remember .... behind the old Tynecastle there were a block of flats We tried there in the hope that there was a window on one of the stair landings ... again there wasn't On the way down though, 2nd or 3rd top flat I think, we saw a guy saying bye to someone at his doorway ... on the off-chance I asked him if we could come in and watch the game from his window, lol, and we'd give him a tenner. He went inside to discuss it with his mates, came back and said Yea, but a tenner each. We agreed, still cheaper than the match ticket We went in and there was about 6 or 7 guys .... all Jambos hyped up for the match, scarfs and tops on .. and me and my mate with our Gers tops and scarfs on. We pulled in the couch to the window and watched it with toast and beer with the Jambos, lol.We lost 2-0, and with around 5 minutes to go, we left as they were getting roudy and noisy with their shitty songs, lol.Very surreal Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeautifulSeas 10 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 About 15-20 years ago I watch us play Celt*c in a bar in Dublin (obvs surrounded by their "fans"). At the time I probably didn't fully understand the extent of our rivalry as I hadn't been to Ibrox many times. If I had been, I may not have been so vocal. iirc, it was actually 0-0, but I could be wrong.Remarkably it passed off without incident. Other than that, nowhere that unusual, but quite a few different countries around the world. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds_Bear 8,129 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 That might take a bit of beating. I was scared it was me that was gonna take the beating, the guy who owned it looked like fritzel and was obsessed with screaming MUTU! In my face every 30 seconds...I thought I was gonna end up his next victim. To be fair to them they fed us and kept my drink topped up. Very surreal none the less!
