middle-linebacker 1 Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 At least someone from the footballing world in these islands gives a fuck about these young heroes of ours. Im proud to be a supporter of such a great club and i show all my work mates down here in England as many videos as i can on you tube with the troops and their fantastic reception every time their at Ibrox. Unfortunately all they care about is fucking X factor and facebook . We are the people and those scumbags across the city should hang their heads in shame the cunts Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
