It made an awful day a little more bearable than it might have been. You're all a good lot and I'm proud to be a part of this support. It’s times like these I’m so thankful and proud to be part of this family, in times of strife we know who our brothers and sisters are. it’s great there are so many stories of the greatness, kindness and humility of Walter from so many people who have been fortunate enough to cross paths with him, definitely helped today.

I expected David Edgar to be very emotional but did a great job I thought, McCoist held it together far better than I would given the closeness he had with Walter but Gerrard really surprised me. For Walter to have had that kind of impact on Gerrard in such a short space of time is a clear sign that you met Walter and you couldn’t help but admire the man.

ALerone 633 Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Its crazy there is always this overpowering pressure on us fans continually from the next game, the media, the other teams supporters it seems to never end and unfortunately has us bickering at each other but its times like this where we rise above and come together as one, for finals, for big games and for those that lead us. Fuck we are really unbeatable when we all in it together. Love you all watp. AlbertzLoyalRSC, Bears r us and RFC55 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We battered CSKA iirc and Coisty missed a couple of decent chances. Was an amazing campaign, from the silence when Gary Mac scored for Leeds to the roar when Hateley equalised, big Nizzy with one of the craziest goals I had seen all gave me the bug to go see us away in Europe that I managed a few times with bank loans and tapping my old man.
