WILLIAM BEAR 154 Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Even though I have not known you for long, I could see how passionate you were about raising funds for Erskine and Bravehound and I am sure like other members on here it was always a pleasure to donate and support these good causes. I am sorry to hear about your health but as @Sweettartangirl says your health absolutely comes first. So I wish you well and hopefully one day at Ibrox I can thank you in person face to face.

There are lots of random, unrelated and non-controversial reasons behind my decision, the main one being health-related, so that’s the end of that discussion! I’m sure many of you will be delighted at the news of my retirement, because let’s face it, I’m an annoying cunt, even on a good day. I am reasonably sure that being an annoying cunt is not a medical condition. Look after yourself and get better. The fund has been good for us all and brought a good feeling to everyone involved so, thank you for bring it in to being. I stole this off you.

Popular Post saltire266 502 Posted July 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 22, 2019 GB you will be truly missed by so many people!! You have done so much good for so many,our truly special armed forces veterans.Dont think I have ever blindly given money to someone who I knew would do so much good with it. Guess it's time to keep a promise I made to you years ago. I have a pair of signed Vladimir Weiss boots in a display case( I believe these were his cup final boots V scum ) You can have it for a fundraiser or auction and I will put a donation into the account when I start my new job abroad soon.

jamess 3,422 Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Been away so missed this initially. Nobody deserves good luck with health more than GB so I hope we hear future good news. Big shoes to fill, but i'm sure the brand has been set and the GB RM fund will be supported. Just make sure GB appears in the name.
