[Professor Yaffle]

Those banners do look awful.

Some uber fan will have them on ebay at some point or one of those facebook groups!!

They've got to go, simply bring them down and replace them.

I agree with a poster above, LED signage is the way to go.

I will power wash the concrete for free. In fact, I’ll pay to do it. Just put me in a cherry picker and supply me with a power washer.

Hands down the most satisfying thing to do, power washing

I do the local catholic school children's teeth with one, but i charge the bastards

Worth including the SLO in your post m8

[Mr.Spock]

I still miss getting the Western bus to Ibrox and walking down to the Stadium in rain and snow and biting cold winds.Bit like Canada in some ways. Standing outside the main entrance trying to catch a glimpse of any players handing tickets to their pals then walking along to Copeland Road and climbing the stairs to the top and then looking out at the pitch, always looking immaculate. The players coming out to a huge roar. Eric Caldow leading them, I think Davie Wilcon was always second and making sure that Jim Baxter was playing. Watching us beat all comers as well.

These are the things I miss and will never get back because times have changed so much from when I lived in Scotland. The last time I was back, the country was not the same place I left in lots of ways and I am glad that I left when we did. I always said, when folk asked me why I came to Canada, that it was because the Rangers were playing badly and that was one of the reasons.

I don't have too long to see out my allotted span but I have my memories to comfort me, one of which is The Rangers and being able to call the Broomloan End, the celtc end and not get abused by kids who never saw the glorious years. To them, all I can say is respect your elders even when they say things with which you disagree. We all have our opinions even old geezers like me. Remamber Voltaire's famous saying and if you don't know it, you can google it.

Davy Wilson was always third out of the tunnel it was one of those little habits/superstitions that many players had and still have today.He followed Caldow then Niven/Ritchie/Martin depending on the keeper that day.

I knew that wee Davie had a favourite place when coming out of the tunnel and I thought it was second but, you are right, the goalkeeper follwed the captain out. My apologies.

 

[Amato]

When was the last time that concrete was cleaned? The dirt has been bugging me for years!

I've given it a quick clean.

 

[LoganBear]

Looks great! But that Broxi Bear “Family Stand” sign is an embarrassment. It’s like something you’d find at a kiddies play zone ffs

Im sure i heard its being taken down/replaced???

Hopefully true, bit of a riddie.

 

[Diego Maradona]

I've given it a quick clean.

You cleaned up that van well

 

[DuntocherBear]

Whenever I read this thread, I feel like bring my power washer to Ibrox and asking where I can help out. It would be an absolute pleasure

No apology needed mate.

 

[Nacho Novo]

Facking hell, what a difference

 

[Eddie Doc]

Is that see through cladding real?

 

[SOB-WATP]

Is that see through cladding real?

Looks like it.

Big improvement.

 

[SOB-WATP]

Family stand sign also gone thankfully.

I've just realised what a arse I've made of this .

Quite the artist Beer Belly Loyal.

No!

 

[Eddie Doc]

No!

Thank fuk for that. Great job with the rest though.

 

[Superted 1872]

Looks fantastic, almost brand new looking

 

[BlueBear0022]

You wouldn’t need to scaffold so far out for such access , think it’s for underside cladding renewal

Heres hoping the more new stuff the better

 

[Deleted Account]

Obviously this is huge and we wouldn’t need anywhere near this size but this is an example from NFL how they can custom fit this ones hanging from roof . Ours would be cheap as chips by comparison

Try and imagine this definition and made to fit perfect in our corners

It sure as hell isn't cheap as chips.

 

[5*RFC]

It sure as hell isn't cheap as chips.

This would be though.

 

[Mr_Miscellaneous]

They need to send the pressure washer round to do that concrete.

It would make one hell of a difference to the stand.

 

[Dougie Deans]

This would be though.

I bags the remote

 

[Dempster]

This would be though.

That’s pretty much what we’ve got

100%

 

[Papasmurf]

I really don’t see the problem with it

 

[Eddie Doc]

See the magnolia coloured panel to the far right that you've replaced with the see through stuff? Is that what is going up right across do you know?

 

[Crouchy]

I really don’t see the problem with it

It looks pish.

It’s a football stadium, not a kids club. We don’t need cheap gimmick type shite on the outside.

 

[iprod]

Confused - is the above before and after photoshop or real?

 

[jweebear]

This would be though.

Full HD, Horrendously Dreadful lol

 

[Papasmurf]

But it’s where the family section is. It’s not really a gimmick as such. Just something for kids to identify with

[Bobafett Bear]

Thank god we have board members with our best intrest at heart,previos regimes abused trust and neglected our magnificent church of footy,slowly but surely they are restoring her to her best again while funding a team fit to play in front of us,thank you director’s Dave King and the three Bears.

WATP

 

[Velvet Underground]

One day someone will clean and re-paint the white girders at the top of the main stand. It's a fu*kin eyesore.

 

[Crouchy]

Guessing they can read?

That, or their guardian will likely step in. The facade looks bad enough these days, without a shitey wee graphic on the side.

 

[uaerangers]

Anyone got any info on the completion of these panels over the weekend?

 

[Hank]

This would be though.

A DER special.

For older bears.

DER, blimey that brings back memories

We should go with Telebank, use the surplus at the end of the year to buy a player from their catalogue. The Bears would go radio rental if it cut off mid match right enough.

 

[dudzo]

The biggest improvement I would like is the catering, it’s dark ages stuff and way overpriced. Can’t pay by card either.

The card thing really bothers me. It would be about 70% quicker if they used card payment.

70% ? That's pretty precise

 

[Delboy1962]

Are you Radio Rental ?

 

[Est1872]

The catering staff have been wearing the same jumpers since I started going to Ibrox ffs.

Minor issue but it annoys the hell out of me. Imagine how many washes they've been through.

The embroidered badges are falling apart with all the stitching coming out.

You'd think we could get on the blower to Hummel for some new ones.

 

[EndOfDays]

Wembley has contactless only queues and makes a big difference. Fish n chips & a beer bought and eaten in the space of half time.

 

[bluetonic]

We really are in the dark ages when it comes to catering, but I imagine like everything else it will have to wait and is not priority at the moment

 

[pelem]

So, wee broxi is going from the outside of the broomie. Well I took the grandwean wi me on May 20th to renew the cson card and when we came out we stopped at the stand and she pointed out and shouted Broxi Bear which sounded braw from a 2 year old.

 

[TN8]

Let's fucking see it then
