Do you do this leaving Ibrox . . .

[Btbamrfc]

Yep, my dad does it and as soon as I could reach I started to do it. Still continue to do it now.

 

[Bakubear]

At 5ft 6 nope just in case I miss ))

 

[Blue-Knows]

Always, have done for years.

 

[waka waka]

Sometimes. Nothing to do with saying goodbye or superstition though. It's just sometimes satisfying to give a wall a good slap.

 

[Up the road]

At 5ft 6 nope just in case I miss ))

Your Tillman challenge?

 

[Fin5769]

Yes. Sometimes there'd be a small queue getting out because of folk stopping to do that (East Enclosure)

 

[Brisy]

This thread is offensive to midgets.

That you Yilmaz?

 

[Brisy]

I always do it and lifted my son up till he could reach himself

 

[Dj12872]

Yes as does my dad and my son

 

[Ready72]

I hit it 5 times on the way out

 

[RabSpackman]

I started doing it as a youngster… now my son does it whenever he is leaving Ibrox.

 

[siegeheroes13]

No

 

[Penny86]

Always. Both my son and I.

 

[butcherboy]

Tradition ain't it and we are a club built on traditions, it's one of the things that sets us apart from the plastic clubs.

It really isn't.

 

[Gios_Gillet]

It really isn't.

Yea ok mate

 

[Newtown Bear]

I've always thought it was a touch wood for luck thing tho this explanation may put some people off...One common explanation traces the phenomenon to ancient pagan cultures such as the Celts, who believed that spirits and gods resided in trees. Knocking on tree trunks may have served to rouse the spirits and call on their protection, but it could have also been a way of showing gratitude for a stroke of good luck.

 

[GimmeShelter]

Every single game and have done since I could reach.

 

[dougieblue]

Yes always have done.

 

[vinnie]

Yeah, do it every time. I quite like that the frame up there is beginning to wear. Or at least it was in 2019

Last time I was on the tour, the game above the home dressing room door was worn too. Don’t know if they fixed when the altered the change room though. History.

 

[FriendsDontLie]

Depends.

Sometimes

 

[AdiCR2]

Yip done it since I was 3 or 4. Used to get lifted up and just carried on since.

There’s no sentimentality behind it for me just what I do.

 

[RFC_LOYAL]

Yip, always do it, both hands, double tap. Not sure if I started doing it as I noticed others, but now it feels like a ‘see you soon’ sort of gesture to the stadium

 

[RFC-GSTQ]

Always done it - it's a sense of one with the club and stadium. WATP

 

[Est1872]

Never done it. Do people also tap their house on the way out the door?

Slap my missus arse on the way out the door, if that counts?

 

[Liviger1984]

Yes been doing it since I started going years ago.

 

[ThorntonMM]

Absolutely

 

[Orange Peel]

Did it when I was young and stupid.

 

[wiggy_rfc]

Yip everytime

WATP

 

[Delboy1962]

I don't don't myself but I do have a quick glance behind me of the stadium leaving the Govan Stand onto the concourse,just incase it's my last time there.
Must be a sentimental thing but I've did it for years.

 

[Macdonsj]

every single game

 

[BattleFeverOn]

Always

 

[Andy666]

Yes every time

 

[Bluethruandthru]

Always

 

[Camby loyalist]

Always.

 

[Leo_Ger]

My old man lifted me up first time and then I’ve done it ever since I was real enough.

Was your dad Geppetto?

 

[Hoojar McKinney]

For as long as I can remember.

If we've had a particularly good result against them or in Europe, will usually be a more vigorous thump accompanied by a "YYYAAASSS".

 

[cloodie]

Always do 2 taps on the way out.

 

[chucknorris]

Every game without fail

 

[11 ALBERTZ]

Yes no idea why, although can’t help but think how many folks do it just after coming out the toilets without washing their hands and then we are all touching something covered in piss

 

[The Gooner]

They call it the Covid hot spot.

 

[DylanGer]

Yes

 

[QueensferryCR3Bear]

Yep every time! I still remember my Dad's last time.

 

[Pedro 1964]

Have always done this. My son does it too.

 

[RH_2020]

No, pointless

I always thought this was some sort of copy of the Liverpool team touching the crest as they make their way out of the tunnel? I don’t do it either.

 

[Bluebeard]

I’ve done it before in the past but haven’t done it for a long time. Wasn’t even tempted to do it on Saturday.

The racket off people doing it I find quite annoying these days. Bang bang bang some people don’t just touch it they smack it or punch it. Strange

 

[Ayrforce1]

For a start we are all blessed to enter that amazing historical stadium, we don't know how lucky we are and probably deep down we all take for granted the size of our club and the history associated with it, we are probablhy in the top 5-10% of football fans world wide to experience nights like Parma, Leipzig to name but two, and so on, and for that reason I tap the frame on the way out as no matter who we are or what we are, one thing is 100% certain, one day we will walk out there and never ever return and if that was Tuesday night I have shown my appreciation by tapping the frame.

PS I hope Tuesday wasn't my last but you get my drift.

PPS - Birthday caord p1sh to some and I respect that.

 

[GovanFront4]

Yes even though I need to jump a little.

 

[DRAGO]

Of course, always have done.

 

[islandbear]

Yes, every time

 

[wsb&warmy]

Nope, never.
