BEARGER

Don't know anyone on the working group far less the 5 who are on holiday. But I do think these unpaid people are entitled to enjoy thier respective holidays without having to email each other over this.

This fan must be truly unlucky. The letter from the club sates he was arrested at the match, only 11 arrests were made at the time. Considering the number of Hibs fans on the park this is very unlucky I would say. Be interesting to know how many of the 11 were Rangers fans.

Further new signage.

What would the "sensation" be in signing a player that we have never heard of? Unless that's the sensation, signing a nobody.

Thanks for the reply. I'm thinking about taking my grandson aged 6 & possibly his young brother( not dure about that). Major problem is it's got to be in school holidays, this October Barca are at home at weekend with CL game following mid week. Hoping that they are at home for CL. I've been before to league game and had no problem getting tickets, as you say would depend on who the visitors are.

It's all over Twitterland, if it's Lafferty Frank should be sacked:devil:

Got off very lightly. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-36885984 Former England star Ray Wilkins sentenced for drink-driving Ray Wilkins was seen striking a kerb and drinking alcohol from a bottle while driving Former England footballer Ray Wilkins has been given a 10-week suspended jail sentence for drinking and driving. Wilkins, who pleaded guilty, was seen in his Mercedes in the middle of a bus lane on the A4 in London on 1 July. Uxbridge Magistrates' Court heard he also struck a kerb and was seen drinking alcohol from a bottle while driving, before attempting a U-turn. Wilkins, 59, who told the court he was an alcoholic, was nearly three times over the legal limit. 'Eyes glazed' The court was told a passer-by took his keys from the car to prevent an accident from happening. A police car was flagged down and the officer noticed Wilkins' eyes were "glazed, he was unsteady on his feet and there was a smell of alcohol coming from him". Ray "Butch" Wilkins was capped 84 times by England Wilkins, of Cobham, Surrey, is currently undergoing a residential rehabilitation course at the Priory Hospital in Woking, the court heard. The former Chelsea and Manchester United star also has two previous convictions for drinking and driving. 'I am an addict' His lawyer Sarah-Kate McIntyre said her client was "ashamed and embarrassed" to be in the dock. Wilkins told District Judge Tim Boswell he recognised that "abstinence is the only way I can control this situation". Sentencing the former footballer, the judge said he appreciated that Wilkins had a "genuine desire to change". In addition to the suspended sentence, he gave Wilkins a four-year driving ban and ordered him to perform 140 hours of community service. Outside court, Wilkins said: "I will be judged on the crime I have committed and that is 100% (right). "I only ask I will not be judged on the alcohol problem I have. I am an addict." Wilkins played 84 times for England including at the 1986 Mexico World Cup.

Tom Sutherland ex Rangers and Beirut hostage has died aged 85.

That we will get a rendition of "there's not a team..." and "follow follow" sung at the correct speed, correct words, and completed all the way through this season?

What's the chances of getting tickets for a CL group game at Camp Nou? Do they always sell out?

Back in for D.Ball.

Can only assume that the club see it as guaranteed money. John Giligan at last years RST said that they would sell as many as was possible in answer to them getting the whole Broomie. Dave King has now changed that position in his answers to fans a few weeks back. Looks like they are just going for the maximum number of ST's as possible.

Club have opened up BF5 for ST's which was previously unavailable. This is the area that TBO sit in, if still in existence? Sold 42500 so far.

BJK being sung, why? Lots of Rangers Songs to pick from, and against East Stirlingshire!

Cannot recommend this tour highly enough. Great day out in good company and very informative.

I don't have it, just publicising the fact that it has been found.

Anyone know the guy?

Bloody iPad! This is a photo from "Rangers the New Era" and purports to show the team of 1898-99 that won all 18 league games. Front row third from right is said to be Finlay Speedie and it is, but Finlay Speedie did not sign for Rangers till 1900 I believe. This picture is all over the Internet, probably taken from the New Era book. The Complete History states that Speedie signed in 1900 and that is repeated in various places on Internet, once again probably from "Complete Record". Does anyone know when the photo was taken? Any definite date for Soeedie signing for us?

Two previous drink driving convictions since 2013!! This ain't gonnae end well for Butch.

http://www.scotsman.com/news/obituaries/william-willie-logie-former-rangers-footballer-1-4179601 William ‘Willie’ Logie, former Rangers footballer Born: 30 September, 1932 in Montreal, Canada. Died: 20 June, 2016 in Stirling, aged 83. Rangers footballers hold many Scottish football records, but Willie Logie, who died last month after a long battle against Parkinson’s *disease, held one which he would rather had gone to someone else. In a short and in many ways unremarkable one-season Rangers first-team career, which spanned just 23 games, Logie became the first Scottish – indeed British – player to be sent off in a competitive European game. He achieved this dubious accolade in the second leg of a first round European Cup match, between Rangers and the French champions, Nice, in Nice, on 14 November, 1956 (pictured below, the team leave for France). Rangers, in their first European Cup campaign, took a slender 2-1 lead to Nice, but, after weeks of non-stop rain, the pitch was like a ploughed field and the French side had overturned the scoreline. With six minutes left, they led 2-1, when the flashpoint came. Logie tackled Nice’s Muro heavily; Muro punched Logie, who hit back, whereupon the French side’s Argentine centre forward Ruben Bravo waded in to attack Logie too, sparking off a mass brawl, which ended with Logie and Bravo being sent off. Logie was able to play in the play-off, in Paris, two weeks later, which Nice won 3-1, but his place in history was by then secured. Willie Logie had been born in Montreal, but, when he was about four, the family returned to Scotland, to settle in the Riverside area of Stirling, where he was brought up and schooled. After school, he served his time as an apprentice joiner, before National Service with the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders took him to Hong Kong, Singapore and into active service during the Korean War. Back home, he settled into his trade, married childhood sweetheart Catherine in 1954 and played junior football for Cambuslang Rangers, before signing for Rangers in 1955. He made the first of his 23 first team games in a 1-0 Ibrox loss to Kilmarnock, in September, 1956, keeping his place for the Old Firm game the following week. He played twice in Scottish club football’s biggest match, Rangers winning both – he even hit the Celtic bar with a long-range “dipper” in that debut appearance. However, by the end of that season, he had lost his place to another Korean War veteran, Harold Davis, but his 16 league appearances were sufficient to earn him a League Championship medal. At the end of the following season he left Rangers for Aberdeen, before winding down his senior career with spells at Arbroath, Brechin and Alloa. Then it was back to joinery and for many years he was employed by the well-known firm of RJ McLeod. In the 1960s, on holiday, Willie often had to dissuade people of the notion he was another former Scottish footballer – Bonnyrigg Rose’s one-time winger Sean Connery, a likeness which caused Willie and his family much hilarity. He and Catherine, who pre-deceased him in 2013, had two sons, Martin and Greig, who survive him, along with six grand-children and one great-grand-child. He is also survived by his sisters Muriel and Marion. In later life, before his Parkinson’s put a stop to it, Willie Logie was an enthusiastic gardener. His family and friends remember a cheerful and very funny man, a teller of tall tales and snappy jokes. Scottish football recalls an unfortunate history-maker, punished by a referee for a tackle which, in Scotland, would have passed off without comment, but, in Europe sparked-off a “rammy”. It’s a funny old game, football, as somebody once said.

Arrived today. Excellent quality.

We can't have it both ways. We complain about the stewarding going in, we get annoyed by the extra stewards in front of our end, we get angry that extra barriers have been erected at our end only. Then we get some cretin in our end letting off a flare and we are not to ID them? The aresehole with the flare gave our detractors just the ammo they needed.
