Madina 3,802 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 It's always annoyed me that "they" have 3 or 4 printed fanzines plus their official magazine still on the go, and we have nothing. Always found it poor that a club our size did away with fanzines and official weekly/monthly magazine. Anobody want to get back on the wagon and produce one detailing this glorious season so far? đ¤ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

roboscot 1,176 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Follow Follow was a great little read too, I think there might still be a pile of them back at my Mum's house, if she hasn't had a tidy-oot! Â Who was The Govanhill Gub? I used to make sure I bought mine off the tidy wee blonde burd that stood between the subway and the old Rangers Shop on the corner.

Madina 3,802 Posted January 17, 2021 Author Share Posted January 17, 2021 Buying the fanzines was a great part of my Matchday experience. Number1 was my fave but I also enjoyed Follow Follow. There was a Rangers historian one as well. Just annoys me that most big clubs still have one and we donât Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

graeme_4 34,348 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Should get an athletic subscription and read the Rangers articles. Streets ahead of any mainstream media and fanzines. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willis 20,919 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 I used to always buy the Number One then I'd keep it to read on the Sunday morning. Was some great stories over the years, used to love reading the tales of mad euro trips and folk staying in the dodgiest places you can think of etc. Sad that its gone as it was like a wee tradition buying it every week. I'd occasionally buy a follow follow but No1 was always my go to fanzine. As much as I'd like to see fanzines back I can't see them ever being profitable so there wouldn't be much point Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of clubs still do both printed and online versions, even Killie ffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hammer 11 2,563 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 This isnât meant to sound snide but itâll come across this way. You hear loads of folk banging on about stuff like these going out of print but doing nothing to actually bring it back. If you have a passion for stuff like this mate take the gamble and print it , happy to subscribe and judging by this thread loads of others will be as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two of which are the OP. Thereâs not enough demand for any print media to justify the time, work and money it would take. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
