Bear Visits Rivals Store In Desperate Plea To Get His Shirt Named


Recommended Posts

Not sure why he has sold his story about this. Makes him come out like an arse. I worry about some of our fans. During the Old Firm game at Ibrox we had pics of our fans rallying round a scum fan as he was getting threats/stares on the subway. Sickening some of them have a little love in and don't understand what it means to hate those bastards.

 

 

Many fans will know Rangers Football Club’s motto as “Aye ready”.

But a diehard Bluenose was gutted when he was forced to ask Celtic’s club shop to print jerseys for him because the Ibrox outlet had no “I” letters left.

Andrew Grant, 32, from Glasgow , was scrambling to get novelty “Mr and Mrs” strips done up as a wedding present for a Rangers-supporting pal’s nuptials in the US.

He swallowed his pride when he asked bitter Old Firm rivals Celtic’s store to help produce the goods.

Council worker Andrew said: “I hope the £30 Celtic got from me doesn’t help them buy the next Moussa Dembele.

“The Rangers shop had no ‘A’ and no ‘I’ letters – which was a problem when I needed ‘Mr Tait’ and ‘Mrs Tait’ printed.

“I’d much rather the money had gone into Rangers but I was desperate.”

Andrew was trying to get his gift ready for groom Andrew Tait and bride Ashley before jetting out for yesterday’s ceremony in San Francisco.

He said: “You just presume it’s the sort of thing that would be pretty straightforward but it turned into a real saga. The Rangers shop said I should try Sports Direct but the one in the city centre was missing Ts and a 6.

“JD Sports and Greaves couldn’t help either.

“So I was then scratching my head thinking how to salvage this and thought I’d just give the Celtic shop a try.”

Staff at the store told Andrew it was the first time they had ever been asked to help with a Rangers top. But dad-of-two Andrew says they could not have been more helpful.

He said: “I had to go behind enemy lines and it was pretty surreal going up to a counter in front of a big poster with Celtic players doing the huddle. I said, ‘I’ve got a bit of a favour to ask?’ And she replied, ‘Don’t worry, if you’ve not bought the top here, that’s okay.’

“But I said, ‘No, I need a bigger favour than that’. Then I showed them the strip.

“The guy who does the printing laughed and said, ‘I don’t know if my printers are going to be able to handle this.’

“He said it was definitely the first time it had happened.

“He went out of his way to help me because all the new Celtic strips have gold lettering on them so he had to go into last season’s drawers to get everything we needed.

“And, as far as I can tell, I was charged the normal price – there was no premium for it being a Rangers strip.”

He added: “I hope the newlyweds appreciate the lengths I’ve had to go to in order to get them the perfect present.

“Andrew used to be a season ticket-holder and is Rangers daft. He lives in Australia now but is always watching the games in the middle of the 
night over there.

“The funny thing is that the place where they are getting married is called Paradise.”

The DR is a shit paper and will be down the pan in the next few years, but it takes someone to contact them regarding this story. 

Not sure if it's the social media phase where people they like to advertise everything they do. Our fans should be burning down the shop not visiting it.

You're obvious as they come. 

You won't be on here for much longer. 

You are obviously thick as fuck and have a poor sense of judgement. You must be 12 years old running with the scum fan line. Mummy woke you up early on a Sunday.

Jog on prick :tu:

The guy sounds more interested in getting his name in tbe paper than he is in Rangers. He has gave the scum fans a good laugh at his expense.

The soon to be married couple's wedding will be doomed due to the tainted tops.

Send his presents back, withdraw his wedding invite and block his number on your phone. Sorted. :tu:
