You should anyway as you appear not to be as educated in Rangers as you should be. It will do you good. Ask yir dad, grandfather whoever.

Bluenose1986 703 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 It's as if, instead of not printing it due to being a non story they decided to go with it to try to make a point of us looking like we're under their thumb. No other purpose to this story and the supposed fan is a walloper as well, plenty other sports shops he could have taken the time to go to. Fucking wank.

They're republican loving kiddie fiddling fucks and that's been going on from the beginning. That whole club and its entire support can go take itself into the fucking sea and die off. True but it's getting worse . And after the last 5 years ,you would think that so many of these fools would learn . Like Malvern said . Story is just a shite read but it's what we come to expect from mainly the beggar loving redtops Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Heart and Hand 8,951 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Guy in OP is an absolute wanker, it would have been one thing doing it just as a favour to his pal but the fact he went to the papers about it just proves hes a spastic and a poof. Probably one of these cunts who say their Rangers fans because their famiily support us, but have never been to a game and would rather watch tennis.

With Heart and Hand 8,951 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 As for the Aye Ready thing There was an 8 page thread about it previously where no definitive answer was reached, "Aye Ready" was definitely the motto of the Rangers Supporters Association. However looking online I can find numerous accounts of people saying years ago that it definitely did say "Aye Ready" at Ibrox, this is from numerous sites not just one, so looks likely that it was true. Maybe @TheMoonlighter or someone else from the Founders Trail would know more about it Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
With Heart and Hand 8,951 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Found this too http://www.followfollow.com/news/tmnw/aye_ready_200064/index.shtml My father and I had the pleasure of being in ex-player and goal scorer supreme Jim Forrest's company the other day,of which much was said about Rangers old and new.Must say,Forrest has many a tale to tell,some of which I'll keep for now. Forrest,a great goal scorer of my Father's generation ( early to mid 1960s),still does hospitality work for Rangers and is a stalwart to this day. Anyway,of note was Forrest still wearing the Rangers colours, tie, blazer et al and of course the subject of 'Aye Ready' or 'Ready' came up: PS: 'I note your Rangers blazer with badge,was it 'Ready' when you were there?' JF: 'It was.Ready then and Ready now.Ready was on the badge when I first signed at Rangers and it was on,when I got my first player's blazer ' PS: 'Do you remember what was on the side of the Main Stand though?' JF: ' Well that was 'Aye Ready,yes I remember that.The club stuck with plain 'Ready' for the badge on the blazers though.Officially it was just 'Ready' and they stuck with that and later everybody knew it has just 'Ready'. KS: ' I remember it on the Main Stand in the 50s and 60s,so you DID see it? Many now doubt it was painted there,especially on 'Follow Follow' ...(message board-a plug!) ' JF: 'Yes it was there,I saw it everyday.It got changed though about the time I was there,1964,65.Why?,well 'Ready' was being used on everything.Suppose it could have been 'Aye Ready',but somewhere somebody changed it & it became 'Ready'. PS: 'Early pictures show it as 'Ready' on Bill Struth's blazer..' JF: 'I think someone was to 'do' the badge and it 'became' 'Ready'.That just stuck.Still used now,so the club says it's 'Ready' as the official motto...' Well,a former player,who played when many alledge 'Aye Ready' was on the Main Stand,including many I know of,also knew of it painted there too.He saw it everyday until it changed apparently in the mid-60s,as 'Ready' was more accessable to the club.It also had been used on the badge on the players clothing for some time.Of course,looks like it could have been 'Aye Ready' if the embroiderers had their way....Never used as 'official' though on anything issued by the club...(now I could differ,but I won't) BLUEFORYOU THE EDITOR OF “THE RANGERS HISTORIAN" REPLIES:- “It was good to know that Jim Forrest (a near-neighbour of mine) confirmed what I knew to be fact. “However one point should be emphasised - the wording on the blazer badges has no relevance to the club's official motto. “Originally the motto was 'AYE WORK AWA', which was then changed to 'READY AYE READY', subsequently shortened to 'AYE READY' and finally in 1966 to 'READY'. “The change in 1966 was explained as being a modernising move, but in fact it was so that the badge could be legally incorporated.

Bears 794 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 If you're that desperate that you check all the sports shops in central Scotland (not just 2 or 3) and you can't wait for a week or two for new lettering to be delivered, you come clean and admit you should have organised it sooner then deliver the finished shirts after the wedding with an apology for being disorganised. But if you really can't cope with all this and you really are content to lower yourself to going to their shop and actually paying them real money to put the lettering on, you really and truly never ever let anyone know. Just no one. So what was he thinking about telling folk and then taking a few tainted quid from the rhecord to advertise the fact that he had just let himself and other down, not too mention give them more ammo that our shop doesn't have enough stock? Who seriously thinks that, if the story was one of them having to come to our shop due to lack of stock, the story would have been allowed to run in the rhecord?

Miller time 4,988 Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I wanted my hole of this bird when I was 17. Was with her for a few weeks and her birthday came up. She asked for a scum top and thought may as well if I can get my hole. She was stunning. Went to buy it at jdat the trongate and guy went to hand me it to put it in the bag. Told him to so it as I wasn't touching it and he said do you not think that's immature and I said clearly you're a taig and love them immature ? Never let her wear it around me. Also I did get my hole. She used to have beads hanging off her bed and I used to open the window end launch them in the garden anytime I was in hers. Didn't last long ?
