He was at that game as well, but just left as normal and away on the piss. Didn't know anything about it till he got home the next day to my gran battering him, because she was so relieved he came back!

Colin Traive 23,282 Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 I think that song is very much for us, for our private grief. Not convinced it’s something for us to sing at games, poignant as it is. Also (and I know this shouldn’t be a factor but it’s human vermin I’m thinking about), it might encourage another outing for “the Rangers end was empty” obscenity the filth sing. glasgow argyle, Blumhoilann, The No.9 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
