Saudibear 0 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I wrote this a while ago but have updated the last few verses In eighteen hundred seventy two Young Moses had a dream To form a Glasgow football team The best the world had seen This dream he had, he brought to life With family, friends and strangers The team that soon would become known As the famous Glasgow Rangers. From humble quiet beginnings He built a winning side. Based on sportsmanship and honor And dignity and pride. Throughout the years our management Were a credit to the game Above them all Mr William Struth The man of greatest fame All records fell before him No team he would not face Just words of quiet dignity We welcome the chase. And then in Barcelona 100 years gone bye A European trophy For John Greig to lift high And then on to the nineties Nine titles in a row And then to 50 titles A world’s first you know A team proud to be British And fight all anarchy Proud to wave our union flag Loyal to our Monarchy Proud of our armed forces Who defend us till the last Not cowardly terrorist bastards Killing civilians with their blasts And now political correctness Is bringing different fears Banning songs we love to sing Can bring this bear to tears. Our protestant traditions Being torn and cast aside Our modern day leadership Have found someplace to hide At last our fans have had enough The fight back has begun No more to turn the other cheek And pamper to the scum. And those who say they hate us They despise our Royal Throne Show allegiance to a foreign flag I ask why don’t you go home. No more we’ll be the easy marks For the media to lie and smear The time has come the truth will out Be frightened Graham Speirs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueIsTheColour 35 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Superb poem SaudiBear, brought a lump to me throat there. :unionflag: I ask you one favour though, please change the last line. That insignificant cretin doesn't deserve a mention in such a splendid work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ibroxblue 122 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 "Based on sportsmanship and honor And dignity and pride. ...quiet dignity" Things like that are worth remembering. Also Mr Struth's words about "tolerance and sanity". Sadly an element of our fans seem too keen on bitterness and hostility. Too keen on attacks on our rivals involving highly sensitive subjects, rather than supporting our own team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
