CF2 WINNIE 1,006 Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Brilliant day out and would recommend anyone to go and do it. The work that has gone into finding out all this information and setting up the trail is unbelievable and the guys deserve huge credit for doing this. Stadium tour brilliant as well would never tire of being in the trophy room. The best feeling out there is standing at Mr Struths grave looking over towards Ibrox as his famous speech is read out. Thanks again to the organisers you truly are the people Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

minstral 5,375 Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Founders Trail is a fantastic day, plus you end up with the tour of Ibrox. My grandaughter who is 13 done the Ibrox tour last month, and wants to go on the Founders Trail , which we will do, once the better weather comes back.
