I was choked watching that. I advised
@gw4877 and
@Chunky Dawz to watch it too.
Spoken from the heart and struck a chord with all of us.
If I'm being honest, the Time Capsule episode of the pod had me very emotional too. I am roughly the same age as the lads (I was a 9 a week after the game) and I remember sitting in my parents' room listening to the game and going through the emotional rollercoaster you'd imagine. I went tonto at the goal then spent the rest of the game as a nervous wreck until it was confirmed.
I was at Rugby Park with
@gw4877 for the title game in 2011 and my youngest daughter was born the month after. In her lifetime, Rangers haven't won a title. She's 10 in June.
When Andy (if I remember correctly) was talking about the ten year old him seeing the "older guys" crying, it struck me that I am the "older guys" now. I celebrated 1987 as a title win. Although I was alive in '78, it was late '78 before my old boy took me to a game (yes, I was 18 months) so I have no recollection of a title win. I probably didn't appreciate the ramifications of a 9 year wait for a title.
I'm now in the position (as we all are) of waiting those almost 10 years. A decade of drought. If I was emotional listening to the memories of three chaps talking about our last drought ending, I am going to be a wreck when it comes this time. I am those guys up at Pittodrie. We all are.
Drink it in and lap it up, brothers and sisters. We have stood shoulder to shoulder together, and with the club, through this and, d'you know what? We've done it.
We've only gone and done it.
