[cooperman]

Who the feck is Angus Young ?

this deserves a ban surely

 

[Junior Ganymede]

Strange as it may seem, but Archbishop Makarios was staunch as f@ck.
This is a pic of him leaving Ibrox, after a New Year's OF match (68 or 69, I think)

 

[dreamtheater]

Lulu certainly wasn't. She was in the same programme as Tennant a while later and when they spoke of her granny and her Orange roots she was far from ashamed. My first time at Ibrox in 1972 she was sitting a couple of rows behind me in the Main Stand (she was appearing at the Edmiston Club at the time). She takes a bit of stick for changing her accent and stuff but she's definitely not one to be ashamed of her background.

Tennant is a piece of shit. I remember he did that WDYTYA series, and he was all apologetic for having a family member in the OO. %^*& him.

 

[SimonLeBon]

I’m sure I’ve heard from loads of folk that sam Torrance was one of them?

Torrance is a massive celtic fan

 

[Bankie]

John Lydon (Johnny Rotten). Went to see Public Image Ltd at the Academy and he said he was a bluenose. Said everyone thought he was Celtic Minded because of his Irish roots, but deffo a bluenose (and Arsenal). Cue much cheering from our bunch and booing from the great unwashed.

Kirriemuir is well worth a visit to see his statue. Think they used to have “Bon-Fest” there too, in happier times.

 

[cooperman]

John McKay from STV news.
Din Djarin
Boba Fett

and Luke Skywalker's a tim bastard, judging by the colour of his lightsaber, got it from his da who's well acquainted with the dark side

1st President of Cyprus, died shortly after I got there! (Same year as Elvis and Marc Bolan )

 

[BagoBorealis]

I grew up in Dennistoun knew her sister quite well and my brother was friends with her brother, my oldest brother was in Lulu class at school, and her mum was friends with my mother,
Only met Lulu once, was about 14 and on my wat to see the Rangers when I met her and my mum, her mum says' you have never met Maria have you?'
Isaid no and asked her what she worked as lol

My old man also grew up in Dennistoun and went to school with her, possibly said he was in the same class but I’d need to check.

Left for Erskine at about the age of 18 and ended up in Renfrew after he met my Mum.

Cool story.

 

[BagoBorealis]

The bassist out of Travis, confirmed:

Premier League predictions: Lawro v Travis bassist Dougie Payne

Mark Lawrenson takes on Travis bassist Dougie Payne for the midweek Premier League fixtures.

www.bbc.co.uk

All of them out of Travis, bar Francis, are Rangers fans I’m sure.

Looked it up after my sister made me take the spare ticket to go and see them a few years ago.

Not that strange at all. the Eastern Orthodox have the same disdain for Rome as we do.

I’ll prefer to keep my memories

I’m not actually surprised about this, I read his book where a good chunk of it spent criticising the Catholic Church & all the disgusting on goings.

Which would indicate he’s maybe not an Uber tim.

[Kentbear]

No doubt a few will pop their heads out the woodwork when we start a trophy run, the few that have been around in the lean times will be the ones i shall relate to,not the new inverted comma's ones.

 

[Thor]

There’s a photo of Robbie Williams kicking about with a Rangers top on. Another weird one as well is Patrick Dempsey.

 

[LenzieLoyal]

 

[Talktalk]

Yep. He was a big T.Rex fan as well, I believe.

I prefer the Triceratops myself

 

[Brian Laudrup]

Who’s that??

 

[Coopers left foot.]

Who’s that??

Middleton

 

[huistrasleftpeg]

Who’s that??

Ant Middleton. The type if dude you’d want in the trenches next to you!

 

[hellofollow]

I prefer to keep my memories

I remember reading one of Lydon's books about when John McGeogh and another member of PIL at the time having a heated debate about us and them. Basically Mcgeogh going on about being Blue and the other guy being green. Lydon made it pretty clear he was neutral. He certainly does despise the Catholic Church tho.

 

[Brian Laudrup]

Ant Middleton. The type if dude you’d want in the trenches next to you!

Heard his name before but never knew what he looked like,he’s ex SAS is he not??

 

[Hoggle]

And me...

 

[Brown Bear]

Hardly famous however I remember when I was at school 35yr ago, our English teacher told us a tale of how he was back packing and journeying through Europe when he was younger, he said he boarded a train in Hungary and the train conductor came to check his ticket, when the conductor realised my teacher was British he said in broken English, "Glasgow Rangers, the best". He attempted further conversation with said conductor but quickly realised those 4 words was the only English the man could speak.

 

[BigDGrant]

SBS mate.

 

[GovanBlueNose]

Kirriemuir is well worth a visit to see his statue. Think they used to have “Bon-Fest” there too, in happier times.

They still do mate.

 

[Sancus]

Eddie Stone. SAS veteran and featured in SAS: Are You Tough Enough.

 

[Clicker]

SBS mate.

An SAS man that can swim.

 

[TQ3]

Probably doesn't even know where we play.

She has a picture of Ibrox with the Rangers team in her private collection. It was widely reported on from a bbc documentary of the Queen!
She knows alright, don’t you worry about that @Virgil Hilts

 

[monkey magic]

[NDC bear forever]

Guy who plays plays Loki.

 

[Euro Scooter]

cheers mate, so just drink, drugs and groupies for Bon but no football, and the other way round for Angus and Malcolm, bears are just born wiser I guess

I could tell you a tale or two about Angus and Malcolm's naughtier side but, yeah, Malcolm in particular was football mad. They still have loads of family in and around Glasgow and all the ones I have met over the years have been brought up on the right side of the divide.

The other guy was Mike Joyce who drummed for The Smiths.

 

[Sancus]

Guy who plays plays Loki.

Tom Hiddleston - his dad is from Greenock. Big friend of The Rangers.

Not to be confused with Rosie Kane’s rapper nephew from Pollok.

Angus Young

Sorry to have to tell you this, Bon wasn't exactly in the band when Back in Black was recorded.

What a guitarist McGeogh was. Greenock boy.
