Ozblue 4,331 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 Although not related to Rangers specifically, I was almost divorced before I got married due to football (if that makes sense) Back in those days in the 1960's the only way we heard of ANY football outside of Australia was to get sent a 3 month old copy of the Daily Record from your relatives. The date my future wife picked for our wedding was slap bang in the middle of the football season, so I told her to change it to the off season. The stupid woman gave me a choice; "it's either the football or me" so she went and complained to her Father. Her Father ( A loyal Rangers man from Ayrshire) told her to stop being fucking stupid and change the date; because he was my football manger at the time and there was no way I was not playing just for a wedding. About 8 years later she gave me the ultimatum again; "You either retire from playing and coaching football or I'm going to get a divorce". To sum things up; Mrs Oz Mark II is quite happy that I continued my football and she loves watching the mighty 'Gers with me on Television; her highlight was when I took her to Ibrox in 2013 to see us beat Stenhousemuir 8-0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

demise 3,519 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 On the day that we won our last SPL title against Kilmarnock, me and the then girlfriend were having a coffee and then decided to watch the game together. I was very nervous about this one, remembering the final day of season 2008, and she wasnt really too much into football, but was very supportive that day. As the first half went on, i was pretty satisfied with the result, and i have to say she was enjoying the game too. Come the end of first half, she said ''ok, you had your 45 mins, now i need you to focus on me for 15''... I didnt last long ,and we were just on time for the Jelavic goal. Few months later we broke up and havent kept in touch ever since. But to me that day was the best girlfriend related day as a football fan.

GOAT 30,449 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I left my flute band the first time around for my ex, I was constantly fucking about and she found out, so I chucked it for her. I'm no really ashamed of that, my fault for being a dick. She tried to get me to give up going to the games the same time and she was told not a chance. That was about 2006/07ish. Safe to say the trust never really returned and in 2010 she tried to stop me from going to TITP for the first time, so she was told where to go. First thing my current missus was told was I follow Rangers and that will never stop. The last two years or so we have our arguments because I get people to watch the weans when I go the games, I don't see the issue with that, clearly she does. But she knows the score.

She told me not to bother asking her ma to watch the weans and my da couldn't watch them either. So I had to watch it on the tele, she shows up at the second half and when Miller scores I'm going absolutely bonkers, she tells to fucking calm down, it turns into a massive fight with me telling her I should fucking be there anyway. I end up packing my stuff and ended up in the Savoy that night and phoning in sick for work the next day. Since then I think she prefers me at the games aswell.

As your post above m8 I gave up being in a flute band because of her, tbh though it was taking up a huge amount of my time , clubs, parades, practice etc , I'd been in it for 7 year's so it was hard leaving but I could see her point especially when the kid's started arriving, but as far as I'm concerned my sacrifice is made, there's no way I'm giving up going to games, but to be fair to her she doesn't give a fuck about me going to the games anyway.

I rejoined my band in 2011, I ended up chucking it again when we played Berwick away 2013. The choice was a parade somewhere (cannae mind) or Berwick away. Berwick was always going to win that. Safe to say I'm not the bandmasters favourite person these days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
