Rangers & MCFC fan,🏌️♂️⛳️ & occasional 🏃♂️🚴🏻♂️Proud dad of 2 boys, & grateful husband to my long-suffering wife. TalkTalk sang “Life’s what you make it”.
Last night, after 6 weeks in hospital, my Dad finally found peace.
Both legs amputated in recent years, but it never held him back.
Climbing up 22 stairs to get into his house on prosthetic legs & crutches at age 84.
An absolute warrior of a man. And my Rangers hero. 💔🤍💙
I haven’t worn a scarf to the football since I tied my scarf on the blue gates when Davie Cooper died.
Today, I wore my late Father’s scarf to a game for the first time. He’d have been a happy man tonight. ❤️🤍💙
I assume it’ll take Nathan Patterson to move away from Rangers before the haters in the Tartan Army/Celtic support will actually admit that the boy has talent. 🤷♂️
Blinded by hatred of RFC.
Only in Scottish football would a team demand 25,000 tickets, go mental at only getting 20,000, only sell c10,000, then subsequently blame their opponents for this state of affairs.
And that’s after the Governing body changed the kick off time to suit them.
Tin pot outfit.
So Dundee play final pre-split game after all other teams have played, and Rangers are only SC semi-finalist who doesn’t have a free midweek to prepare.
I’m sure those who have long shouted about ‘sporting integrity’ will be up in arms about this, yeah? 🙄
Big Calvin was on my flight from Glasgow down to London tonight, top lad.
Photo with my youngest son. ❤️🤍💙
And no, I didn’t ask him who he’d be playing for next season. 😳
How can you not like Ianis Hagi?
A thoroughly nice, level-headed, hard-working professional athlete. Easy to forget he’s a young man with the heavy weight of expectation on him.
We’re very lucky to have him.
Interesting that among the Celtic support the term “Covid season” relates to a full and complete season of fixtures rather than a curtailed season ended with a zoom call. 🤷♂️
It’s no wonder I stay off here when we drop points. There’s a whole generation who’ve never encountered a title race and shit the bed constantly.
Calm the Fuck down! 🙄
Rangers have to abide by the legislation in place. They have absolutely no choice in that.
They are not there to fight your personal battles with the Scottish Government on vaccinations.
Take it up with Sturgeon etc. It’s their shitshow, it’s not of RFCs making.
Highest wage bill in the league - the mismanagement of player contracts and recruitment has been off the fucking scale.
Rip it up and start again. No sacred cows, no sentimentality. Fast, athletic, young, skillfull players required - no more prosaic neverbeens.
If you’ve ever been to a wedding of a different faith, do you stand up & boo during the ceremony? No, you respect the different views of the people who’s wedding it is.
So, don’t fucking boo Glen Kamara & the rest of the Rangers team when they take the knee. It’s called respect.
Celtic have scored 2 goals against us in the last 4 OF games.
One was offside, and the other a handball. But for incompetent officiating they’d have zero goals in those 4 games.
Somehow they still blame the ref. 🙄
The stands emptying at 3-0 up in the 80th minute v Livingston wouldn’t empty at 3-0 up v Celtic at the same point. So, the argument about leaving to get buses, trains etc is largely bollocks.
2018 League Cup Final - Aberdeen happy to agree 25k/20k split with Celtic.
So, any arguments about Aberdeen cup final attendances prior to 2018 or the need for a 50/50 split are irrelevant.
If Rangers are sensible they’ll publicly announce they’ve applied for full stadium capacity for the game against Malmö next Tuesday.
Leave everyone in no doubt that if it’s anything less than full capacity granted, it’s purely because of GCC.
@mrewanmurray
This ‘1 in 9’ narrative gives equal weighting to each trophy (which is bollocks) and also completely ignores the shambles that Gerrard inherited.
We were light years behind Celtic and he’s build an infrastructure and style of play that saw us win the league by 25 points.
Do people think Ross Wilson is sitting there thinking “I quite like this Patterson cash, just going to keep all of it”?
He’ll be working on bringing players in. Just because you haven’t heard, doesn’t mean we’re not trying to do deals.
Trust him. Be patient.
Follows Kilmarnock and Motherwell official Twitter accounts but doesn’t follow Rangers official Twitter account.
Also follows a well-known Rangers-hating Jambo.
You’re not a very good liar are you?
Shocked our movement is so fragmented at this crucial moment in history...
The union is gaining pace in its endless war against us. Will you be used as a union shill or will you stand, Putting our differences to one side and pushing our leaders even harder than before.
🏴
Doubt we’d even give Muscat a second thought if he wasn’t a former player (and not even a good one at that).
We need to get away from this fixation. It’s not healthy.
No one is demanding you love the Rangers women’s team or women’s football in general. Don’t like it, then don’t watch it.
It’s never going to be the same as the men’s game, and that’s a positive for it.
Let young girls dream of playing for RFC, what’s wrong with that?
If we have VAR in Scottish Football, Rangers pick up three points yesterday.
You might not like it, but it would more than likely ensure decisions like yesterday’s clusterfuck don’t happen.
What would you like sacked for?
A) Giving access to a secure Government device to family member, or
B) Submitting a personal expense of £11k as a work expense, or
C) lying to your boss, your employer & the media about it, or
D) desperately throwing your kids under the bus?
Saw all Jermain Defoe home games for Toronto FC. Good player, nice guy (told me he was a Celtic fan 😉) but he is small and none of his team were good enough to find him with a ball when he made runs. Four years less pace now but decent signing for a team wanting Top 6 finish.
Wee man wanted the third kid for his birthday but Rangers Store didn’t have it in his size.
Greaves had it, so happy to give them the order as they’ve stood by the club, particularly in the last decade.
I don’t get Rangers fans that are absolutely desperate for us to sell one of our leading stars just to say “see, our model works”!
We have our valuations of players & if no one meets them then they stay. Board must have a funding plan in place otherwise they’d accept offers.🤷♂️
Only 2 of the 8 unseeded teams in today’s EL draw have come via the CL 3rd spot route and progressed through the play off round to the last 16: Benfica & AC Milan.
So, 6 CL dropouts were beaten by 2nd place EL teams.
Shows you the strength of the EL this season (14/16)
95/96 - 4 (now 3pts per win)
96/97 - 5
98/99 - 6
99/00 - 21
02/03 - 0
04/05 - 1
08/09 - 4
09/10 - 6
10/11 - 1
29/21 - 25
Get used to the fact our titles are regularly won by just a few points.
Try to enjoy the ride and stop pishing the bed at “only” a 4 point lead! 😜

As a Rangers fan, I can say from our experience that Mike Ashley will have his businesses gaining from everything related to NUFC.
We’re still trying to fully free ourselves from his disastrous legacy at our club.
Hope NUFC fans can also one day.
Just a reminder that next week (27th Jan) it will be 5 months since Tom Lawrence played for us.
Was really liking the look of him pre-injury, he’s been a sore loss in our midfield IMO.
I’d rather give £500 to the current board for investment in the club than give £500 for club1872 to buy Dave King’s shares.
I suspect Club1872/DK share proposal is dead in the water now, if it wasn’t already.
Yesterday was a top day all round. After being at Ibrox, I drove to Fife to pick up the newest member of the family. Meet Archie.
The cats are non-plussed as usual.
Our board implied that Derek McInnes had no ambition. They subsequently appointed an inexperienced U20’s coach. The real lack of ambition and ability lies behind the boardroom door at Ibrox.
Quite glad to see the back of 2023. My dad being ill & then dying was hard to take, but life has to go on. Need to stay strong for my wee mum who is struggling after 63 years of marriage.
Here’s to a great 2024, health & happiness to all. Live every day like your last. 👌
Fucking idiotic. 🤦♂️
Before you do stuff like this, your first thought should be “will this harm Rangers or enhance their reputation?”
Stupid own goal at a time that the club has enough people looking to cause us harm. 😱
Amazing the number of journalists simply telling us the Celtic bus has arrived at Hampden.
Almost as if they’re not allowed to comment on or condemn the idiotic Celtic fans gathering and breaching Covid rules.
This has probably been the best week for us fans to be an active part of since 2011.
55 was sensational but we celebrated goals online, often alone.
Football is a truly immersive experience, it’s about family & mates in the moment, in the ground. ❤️🤍💙. More todays please.🙏
