50th Anniversary of Ibrox Disaster & the Likelihood of no Supporters in Ibrox

[Mview83]

An absolute travesty this. I know the club have big plans to mark the 2nd of Jan anniversary but now it’s looking likely we’ll have no fans in the ground for this.

What would you like to see them do on this day?

Not ideal, but maybe the ceremony can be screened live on the RangersTV and the Rangers YouTube channels?

 

[Expatbear]

Could fans groups etc organise a socially distanced walk/march to the ground? Perhaps unrealistic in the current environment?

Hopefully someone is thinking ahead as I’m sure many will want to be at the stadium to pay their respects.

It’s gutting that fans might not be there, but it does provide an opportunity to do something else that will mark the 50th anniversary out differently from other years. Some kind of tasteful tribute over all the stands maybe? I don’t really know what the answer should be but I’m sure something could be done to honour those that lost their lives and loved ones that day.

I wonder if the club could arrange permission to have a one-off shirt worn on the game closest to it, with the names of our absent friends subtly / tastefully embroidered onto it.

This is an excellent idea.

absent friends from that day should be named in big letters in each of the stands so that tv cameras can see them all through the game "gone but not forgotten "

The Loving Cup ceremony will be scrapped for sure. No danger will they let several people swig from the same cup.

As someone who has attended the memorials over the past its like everything else in life at the moment because of this virus it’s not ideal but there’s nothing we can do.

My uncle had to bury his brother at 34 years old only a couple of months back and only 20 people could be inside the crematorium were as there would’ve been hundreds of people there if not.

The club won’t forget about it they’ll have the early morning service as usual and to be honest nobody will be stopped attending if they even wanted to.

The club have many ideas on how to mark this, sure they have covered this eventuality, is like supporters involved in the decision though. As I said in OP it’s a travesty no fans will be in the stadium for this.

Great idea mate.

It’s sad and unfortunate but don’t see why it’s a “travesty”, nobody is to blame here.

 

[Midfield General]

Some great ideas from posters,hopefully the Club can organise something.Maybe we can all show our respects together once the crowds are allowed back in.

 

[mdingwall]

I'm sure the club will mark the anniversary tastefully and respectfully.

Give everyone a separate straw
