qwerty 3,730 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 BILL STRUTH QUOTE – WE WELCOME THE CHASE I have been lucky — lucky in those who were around me from the boardroom to the dressing-room. In time of stress, their unstinted support, unbroken devotion to our club and calmness in adversity eased the task of making Rangers FC the premier club in this country. To be a Ranger is to sense the sacred trust of upholding all that such a name means in this shrine of football. They must be true in their conception of what the Ibrox tradition seeks from them. No true Ranger has ever failed in the tradition set him. Our very success, gained you will agree by skill, will draw more people than ever to see it. And that will benefit many more clubs than Rangers. Let the others come after us. We welcome the chase. It is healthy for us. We will never hide from it. Never fear, inevitably we shall have our years of failure, and when they arrive, we must reveal tolerance and sanity. No matter the days of anxiety that come our way, we shall emerge stronger because of the trials to be overcome. That has been the philosophy of the Rangers since the days of the gallant pioneers.

delparlane 5,674 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 The Great Man is probably spinning like a hamster’s wheel in his grave right now. I guess it’s on us to reveal tolerance and sanity in the face of all this nonsense , but in an age of instant gratification that’s one helluva big ask - especially when the scum continue to go from strength to strength.

NixonRFC 1,337 Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 After the last 12 year, it's mind boggling that any fan still has a remote piece of sanity left to work with. Even the year we actually won the league we couldn't step inside a ground and cherish it with the folk who sat around us for that whole depressing decade you couldn't walk into a boozer after the game buzzing about the result or how the league was shaping up, you couldn't go for nights out knowing we were back at the top, it was like right we'll give you everything you ever wanted but we'll take away every single thing you can enjoy it with. Soon as we're back in among our own it's back to mind numbing frustrations again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
