Perhaps renaming of a forum like the OT or something might be a better suggestion.

Tbf The Champions Den needs renamed soon.

Jimmy Bell's Kitroom it should be called.

Same here, it is the suddenness of it all, you just got so used with Jinmy there all the time.

Absolutely gutted for Gio, the players and everyone at Rangers today. 😥

I liked this wee bit of humour from Jimmy that Windass shared.

Best thing I ever seen Jimmy Bell do was absolutely no sell it when Steven Gerrard walked into the dressing room for the first time while Bell was in the process of setting up.

Here comes Steven Gerrard who everybody was in awe of, and Bell gave zero fucks and wasn’t phased at all, not through arrogance but because he had already seen it all in terms of the big names, the highs and lows on the park and because he knew that no one man would ever be bigger or more important than the club, not even football megastar Steven Gerrard.

It makes for incredible viewing because of its borderline awkwardness but that was such a teachable moment for Gerrard because Bell made it clear that the club is all that matters in a very old school manner and without barely saying more than a couple of sentences.

If you watch the video he is pissed off he was disturbing him getting the kit ready for a game. He wasn't Rangers manager yet and Jimmy couldn't give a damn about him. What a man.

[McEwan's Lager 30,893]

An honour, if somewhat terrifying, to have met him a couple of times.

But my favourite Jimmy Bell moment came this season away to Motherwell when Fashion scored the hat trick.

The game had already kicked off and he was wandering around from the away end to the dugout (players were still doing the entrance from that end due to covid) and he put 55 on the subs board and flashed it to big cheers from the Bears.

[TheBluebells 6,898]

He was part of the fabric of the club, terrible news and can only imagine how devastated  everyone at Rangers must be and to those who got to meet him over the years. 
 

RIP Jimmy Bell, Rangers legend.

Mate no harm but why would we shut the forum down? 

We have a huge game on Thursday. People can come in here to pay their respects, I have no clue why you would want the entire forum shut down

[Sket 13,610]

That's a sickener. There will never be another like him.

This isn't the place for an argument and I'm not seeking one, but you can't seriously expect admin to close down the rest of the forum?
