Fa1833 431 Posted Tuesday at 21:32 Share Posted Tuesday at 21:32 I'm hoping use on this forum can help with something a bit different but 110% Rangers related My son is non-speaking Autistic and while he can't always show it in typical ways, he's become a massive Rangers fan lately! It turns out he's been carefully listening to the songs I play in the car, and his absolute favourites are 'Make Us Dream,' 'Four Lads Had a Dream,' and 'Rangers Till I Die.' It's been amazing to see him use words, he only sings Billy Boys no sectarian songs as of yet as he is only 8. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for other Rangers songs that have a similar kind of feel or that you think he might also enjoy? Any recommendations would be brilliant. Also, just to explain a bit more about his situation, the atmosphere at a match would unfortunately be too overwhelming for him due to the noise and reactions. The only way he might ever get to see Rangers play would be in a private box or perhaps even the Gordon Ramsay restaurant at Ibrox which probably wouldn't happen where he could experience the game in a more controlled environment. Thanks in advance for any ideas you can share! He also spent time with the Rangers football coaches playing football near Ibrox last year in which he loved. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can inquire about needing special access. https://www.rangers.co.uk/disability-matters-/7DxZjynrP9gtHQuZ77IFx7 Anyways... 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The video wont pop up on the page - I had this problem before when copying a URL, I did wait a bit longer this time for it to load....so @Rousseau if you could edit this post it would be good. Every Saturday we follow he loves as well, much appreciated 👍 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I find Every Other Saturday a vintage classic which used to get blasted in the 90s on a Friday night in the park drinking the Merrydown and K Cider (and the odd Diamond White which was only bought of the other 2 were sold out) towards all my Aberdeen mates before heading down in on the train on a Saturday morning. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old Merrydown gets the pants down and Buckfast gets you fcked fast 😂 I liked white lightning tbh it was only a quid a bottle, Buckfast, on the other hand, is £11 these days 😱, I forgot to mention these professionals who say your kid/grandchild can't talk underestimate the power of music & rhyming. Many of stories I could tell you of how I got my little one to achieve milestones others would say were Impossible, prime example is still funny to this day for my family but also helped him a lot, my son was In pull-up pants up until the age of 6-7 and he was humming this song so I experimented with the proclaimers 500 miles, when I wake up and I know Im gonna pee I’m going to pee in the poottee ( pointing to the toilet) sure enough after 2 weeks job was done, to this day he still sings the song whilst going to the toilet 😂 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries. 'Paste as plain text' usually works for me. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
