*Manticore* 1,893 Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Such a huge percentage of their fans live in close proximity to the piggery, more than most clubs.But if barlinnie were further away..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excelsior2k5 0 Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 I think your photos are a bit biased as Govan is a shithole like Parkhead is and there are terrible views of ibrox stadium depending where you stand outside the ground.I think a lot of you are obsessed with septic and all to do with them.This is one thing about (and i use this lightly) the majority of gers fans which makes us look bad in the press and from outside perspectives.We need to concentrate on our own club instead of theirs.

harry handsome 629 Posted August 3, 2007 Share Posted August 3, 2007 Laughed at the pics but one of the comments below is accurate 100% about something falling off and nearly getting the game called off. The story is fact as i was involved in the panic of trying to get it fixed.The construction company who are well known and named after our other national drink had a major problem when some cladding that was fixed by the wrong method, saving costs or bad workmanship i dont know, came away from the top of the stand. I worked for a well known plant hire company in Glasgow at the time who supplied cherry pickers and had been chasing work with the contractor at the time.And the phone call went something like this.Hey Stevie its Gordon from ----- we have an emergency and need the biggest cherry picker we can get to Parkhead the roof is falling off can you get it there asap, as he laughed, he explained if it wasnt fixed the game coming up would have to be cancelled. Now i was visiting the rellies in Rothesay at the time and thought can i help or not, the rest is open for discussion.And another occasion comes to the surface, whilst working for another company in the same line of business i was asked to look at a job inside the ground to do with the telly gantry, i had a look at the problem which had arisen and was shocked at what i saw. If it is still the same i wouldnt be surprised but here we go, standing in front of the main stand to the right hand side of the tunnel at the foremost right hand corner nearest the pitch the roof was jammed up by a piece of four by two between the steel pirlings, quality. The main problem was that the gantry frame was made of box section and was fitted to tubular section with minimal contact and did not pass the building licence requirements. To get into the box you have to climb onto the roof of the stand climb down into a walking gantry and then into the box itself. I was amazed at what i saw the power points were not fixed properly and there were dangerous wires lying about everwhere, the steel sections were not welded to any great standard. Again there was a crucial champions league game coming up and they were under pressure to get it done or no game. I measured it up and explained that they had to take a certain size truck in to do the job but would need to encroach on the corner of the pitch, the groundsman said no way i said no game see you later. My client shit himself as i walked away saying that they had ten minutes to resolve the problem as i was commiting the only truck in Scotland that could do the job to Ibrox for maintenance, not major repair. FCUK did i have a smile on my face when i walked away, best ten minutes i had in some time. Other than the time with the blonde from penilee but that for another time.
