Popular Post kplfishtank 4,746 Posted July 6 Popular Post Share Posted July 6 A few folk will already know but on Thursday we lost our Dad, as bad as it is losing a parent or any loved one it was especially bad as only 18 days had passed since we lost our brother. dad was 91 and up till 86 he was still a season ticket holder, he told us tales of Moscow Dynamo in the 1940s, he told us tales of Millar, Brand and Wilson. He enjoyed his days in the Govan Front meeting guys he’d known for many years and like all of us he thought he knew more than the managers in the job😂😂 But the best thing he ever done for me and my 3 brothers was introduce us to Rangers, my first game we lost 3-0 to Dundee in 1974 and was promptly called a jinx. I would say that every one of my closest friends I know thru the love of our great club and for that I will be eternally grateful. One of my mates text me this there wasn’t a kid growing up in KP who didn’t know your dad and loved him. Loads of them now have children of their own and they would shout on him if they seen him. Kinning Park has lost a legend 💙💙💙💙 See you on the other side old fella McEwan's Lager, Rangers_no1, BlueJacketRFC and 74 others 18 59 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
