Just a quick note: It will be impossible to keep track on here and the Emails so to avoid getting muddled, only Email entries will be looked at.
I honestly don't know if I have the vocabulary to express my gratitude to Mr King. I really don't.
He was a colossus in our darkest hour and restored pride to a battered and bloodied club and support.
I will make an attempt to put into words what I feel but it'll never be enough.
This would be well deserved recognition for DK’s sterling work on behalf of Rangers.
Tried it but said - can’t be sent.Just a quick note: It will be impossible to keep track on here and the Emails so to avoid getting muddled, only Email entries will be looked at.
Great line From FF favourite ColumbiaThere we were, now here we are.
Thanks Dave King. Legend.
A couple are in already and, well, lets just say the wife needs to start cutting the onions somewhere else
Should be nowhere near the book.a line from a song written by an Irish mhanc? No thanks.That needs to go in there... great line.
We’d have been fucked no question about that. If green and his cohorts were still in charge we would have been fuckedBrilliant idea, without him who knows where we'd be as a Club right now.

Very good idea and email sentI have had a conversation with Suck and he has agreed to not only help with the idea, but to fund any costs for it from the FF EBT-overspill account.
As a small gesture to Dave King to mark his announcement at the AGM of an intention to step down from his role as Chairman we will be commissioning a book that will contain personal messages from those supporters who wish to say thank you.
The Email address DK_Book@outlook.com has been set up and over the next month or so, I will collate and proof any Email sent that contains a message that an individual may like to put forward.
I believe that this gives us a chance for a far more intimate ‘thank you’ than might ordinarily be afforded and I would love to think that he will be able to look back in a decade or so and see the regard in which he is held by so many.
The intention is to gather messages, have them printed by a professional and bound in a fitting cover and to ask for the book to passed onto Dave King at a suitable time.
I understand fully that some may not like the idea, or feel it a little over the top, and I would like to politely ask them to hold their council to allow people who see value in the idea to discuss it and to contribute.
It goes without saying that all messages will be vetted stringently, more to filter out the lurkers than anything, but any inappropriate comments will not be included in the book.
Posters are welcome to send in multiple entries if they have non FF using friends or family who would like to say a piece and the messages can be signed, or not, at the poster's discretion. A location would be a nice touch, to help show the world-wide contribution. For Example:
N_L
South Yorkshire
I will be looking for someone with better writing ability than myself to pen a short fore-word further down the line and volunteers can drop me a PM!

Me alsoReally nice touch mate - will send a message in the next couple days.
If any additional funding is required I'd happily chip in to get this off the ground.

I know it is a personal gift to Mr King, however, it would be great to actually see the finished book with all the heartfelt messages. Most Bears would probably pay for a copy.....
There has been a really good uptake so-far and I will be a busy man!
Not really thought about it to be honest. As it will be made to suit, as many or few as want can send something in. I would hope a fair few would want to!How many are you hoping for NL ?
