Not sure how realistic an option it is but i’d love to see us host some sort of pre season tournament with ourselves, Zenit, Alkmaar and Fortuna with a high percentage of the takings going to an MND charity.

Something should probably be done for his wife as well. If she was struggling to be able to pay for Fernando's funeral she's going to need more help in the years to come.

Yeah, I know mate. I was saying something more might need to be done to help his wife and daughter out for the long term.

RIP #2 

What a Dutch team he managed to get into and player of the year here, winning a treble too. Warrior & Winner 🏆 

Deserved player of the year on his own too, had to share it with the Welsh bafoon unfairly IMO

Its good to see his missues and child are being thought off. Both of them have been absoloute troopers throughout this whole ordeal. 

[RangersMedia 35,961]

Absolutely hate them with all my heart but celtic have been very respectful regarding Fernando Ricksen and fair play to them on that. 

Lawwell and Lennon laid a wreath at Ibrox today, following Lennon's nice words in his pre-match press conference. 

[KingKirk 25,650]

Horrible club but fair play to them for  showing some decency with regards to Fernando.

Seen the poster @eskbankloyal in video Clapping Lawwell and Lennon after they’d placed wreath down.

Lennon seemed genuinely upset which is something I'd never seen before.

Wrong mate that was @Fergie_6

[Blue Rino 1,215]

Been down south all week and never got back in time for the game so I never got the chance to see all the tributes to Fernando outside Ibrox.

So i went over today and man out of a horrible situation I can honestly say I am so proud to be a bear, the sea of scarves, flags and flowers at both gates were a sight to behold  and what a fantastic tribute to a man who fought till the very end .

RIP Fernando 💙

Got to say, my hatred for Lennon has simmered over time, Lawell not so much, but credit to them and the decent sellic fans for the respect shown to Fernando, fair play to them 👏🏻 I didn’t expect it in the slightest, but It was a nice touch from one human being to another

 

[Clemdog 39,389]

Absolutely no respect to any of them. 

Call me old fashioned, but cunts turning up in a full celtic strip to lay a scarf is ambulance chasing at its best, and I'd say the same if some idiot done the same for a celtic player.

Ricksen personified one of our greatest assets of 'no one likes us, we don't care'.  

He loved to be hated, and hated he was. But Rangers loved him and he loved Rangers.

I'll delete this if folk think it an inappropriate place to say it. But. The sight of Lawell being applauded by bears made me feel sick. I understand why they did applaud, and am not criticising them directly. It just didn't sit right with me. Lennon is an ar*e, hate his antics but at least I think he would be genuine. Not the puppet master though. That was a point scoring stunt (just need to see the number of journos that 'just happened to be there').

LikeI say, I'll delete this if it's the wrong place/time to say this.

You’re bang on mate.  Slanty is a point scoring cunt. 

[Sparkle 53,600]

I don’t know what to think.  On the one hand it is good they showed their respect publicly (unlike the manky interlopers last night) and we would have noticed and criticised them if they hadn’t done so.

On the other hand, they are c.nts of the highest order.

Difficult one.
