spireblue 229 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 apologies if this is a repost....but this is what being a rangers supporter is all about....well done that man.£1m Pledge Takes SaveRangers.com Above £12mSaveRangers.com was delighted to receive a £1m pledge from Alan MacKenzie in Western Australia. Alan, who runs his own manufacturing company Down Under, contacted the site admin with his pledge and the picture below of his grandkids “handing over” their pledge to the campaign from Perth, WA.Alan stated, “Why am I doing this? the players and fans don’t deserve to be in this position. I’m doing it for the proud history and the legends no longer with us. For my Dad, my son who is true blue and the kids of today’s supporters. To ensure future generations, like my Grandkids, come to know the history of their family background and why we wear this strip with pride and honour, the blue jersey of Rangers, especially down under or when travelling!” Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

offminorthreat 1,458 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Legend. One thing about Australian's is a willingness to pitch in for those in a time of need. Glad to see the bears down here are staying true to that spirit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chineseboy 1,563 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Incredible, what a tremendous gesture, and this man has all my respect. Let's hope that once our other well off fans hear about this then they too will be dipping into their millions to save the club. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1873bear 192 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Superb I know we will do this, Every supporter i speak to would give something towards saving our club..with the right guys running it I,m sure it will happen it has to be rangers men who are looking after the interests of the club and not for any financial gain....The previous board members couldnt give a shit about the club they were too interested in six figue salaries with bonus attached... parasite scum & good riddence to them..

But I've counted enough pre-hatched chickens this season already. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
