That's one of only 5 (I think) Euro away's I've missed since my first one against Gothenburg in 97. I went to Galatasary vs Chelsea a couple of years ago in their new stadium but was pretty low-key and not mental. Southdown1916 was at that game in the video, tho.

That was when they were a bit mental. I think we played them the year after they beat Arsenal in the Final and they killed those Leeds fans before the Semi Final. Chelsea played them in the Champions League the season before us too before they got knocked out and went into the UEFA. Always remember it because I had a Chelsea poster on my wall that must have been taken before the game and it had the 'Welcome to Hell' banners up. Tore it off my wall the next year because it had Chris Sutton in it, then he signed for the Mhanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They done same when we played Fenerbahce Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza1212 1,212 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 THE best player Rangers never signed. An absolute fucking travesty which still angers me to this day. From Smith going out personally to Gremio to meet him to bringing him back here for training and photo shoots at Ibrox. And it still falls through. Nobody can say with absolute certainty if a player is going to be a success..... but THIS Guy!! I've no doubt this was THE striker to end them all.

My boss at the time was a non exec director(think he still is) and said if I wanted to go to any away games he would get me on the playing with the players but I'd have to wear a suit and there would be no alcohol allowed. I asked him about Istanbul and he told me to fuck off and pick another game and they weren't even travelling Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of our group were that bevvied I don't think they would have known if they were in a fight or not.

Super Ally Scores Again! 472 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 He would have been dynamite, forget all the 10 clubs in 11 years nonsense. This guy was an operator back in day and would have scored goals for fun for us. His missus was just a bonus Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

miracle 7,799 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Seems the problem was work permit related after all. Only 10 permits were available for non-EU players in Scotland. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegendofCoop 17,291 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Fuck him. Cunt is dead to me for celebrating that goal. Oh, and KJ is claiming DLA for having a busted gash after firing out 6 weans. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
