Jermaine Defoe post match conduct

[Jake]

Not seen it mentioned anywhere but did anyone see JD giving away the match ball and his top to the young girl in the the East Enclosure after the game yesterday. A few photographers snapping away but not seen any pics published.
Lovely gesture. She will remember that for a very long time.

He gave away the top but not the ball, was captured on Rangers TV

Where do you live, in a bubble

 

[GranvillusClutterbuckus]

Saw it in one of the paper scans Mark posted today.

He’s pretty much the consummate professional and a genuinely kind bloke as well, and one we will talk about in admiration for many years.

Aye but what about Defoe?

An incredible gesture by J.D top block

 

[Geerfc19]

Love seeing this. A new generation of supporters with genuine heroes.

Class act

 

[Rt. Hon. Bearman]

Defoe's here for #55 and our CL group stage campaign this time next year.

 

[WinkieWATP]

Sure someone said it was a poster on here's daughter last night.

A top man.

Classy Team

Big derek. Used to be broxi bear

 

[Morelos20]

Bonus is the top will fit her as well

 

[evo14]

Genuinely one of the finest strikers we’ve had in the last 20 years. His efficiency in front of goal is mind blowing. A consummate professional, excellent athlete and all round great guy. We’d be fools not to get him on a pre-contract.

Big Derek from the POG FB and the Grapes.

His daughter got her leg burned by one of the bangers thrown at Livingston.

Terrific gesture by Defoe.

Never knew that that's even better then, thought she was just a random kid he decided to give it to.

Hopefully that makes up for a bad experience at Livi and also to those that want to advocate the use of bangers etc have a look at the size of the wee girls that's been hurt.

 

[monkey magic]

Jermaine is a class act, both on and off the pitch. A role model for every Ranger.

If ‘this post doesn’t stop those wee stupid self important wankers from indulging in this behaviour then nothing will.

She got a real scare at Livingston mate.

I think @Greg Marshall was involved in arranging it.

Well played by the SLO.

He gets a fair bit of stick on here so credit where credits due.

 

[HowdenEnder]

I noticed at full time one of the Accies defenders go up to Defoe and ask for his shirt, he pointed towards the tunnel and I took it to mean 'I'll give you it inside'.

Looks like instead he was pointing to the enclosure saying 'I've already promised it to someone else'.

Great to hear.

 

[The Pink Panther]

We’ve had our fair share of strikers from the EPL past their best and a few were sceptical. Jeffers, Gayle, Ostenstad, Beattie etc but he’s a far cleverer player and a model professional. Hasn’t lost too much pace eithe r

 

[chosen few]

Jermaine Defoe has been a great striker and consummate professional all his career, however it is as a great human being that he should be proudest

 

[Family bam]

Brilliant.

That's why WATP.

 

[Scarlett]

Wee girls face is a picture.

Would a boot in the baws be out of the question?

 

[Realger34]

Say it time and time again but Defoe is a class act.

 

[Bribrox]

I have to say I had no idea what a great guy Defoe was before he joined us.

I knew he did a hell of a lot of good work with wee Bradley but I thought that was mabey a one off for a really ill child but no it seems he really is one of life's genuine good guys.

Absolute gent mate with a big heart. One of lives gems and is so fitting in our club.

 

[EKBB]

I don't think there is a single Rangers employee past or present that doesnt get stick on here lol.

Great gesture by Defoe though. He really does deserve a league winners medal.

 

[gersandproud]

Top bloke is our Jermaine

A class act on the pitch - superb player - still banging them in & showing no signs of slowing -

A class act in training - encouraging our youngsters & helping them improve

Then he devotes time to fans with gestures like this ?
An all round class act from a top geezer

So glad to have you as part of our team & club

Struth himself would be proud of you

Hear hear about time @Greg Marshall was given a bit of credit , a lot of moaning goes his way so let’s give credit where it’s due

 

[Garribaldy]

He's the kind of person who you just know that whenever his name is mentioned that it's a positive story. Proud to have him at our club.

Christ Almighty, mate, that is quite the list to strike fear in the heart of every Bear. On a happier note, here's a cheery wee tweet from the club:

[im_a_good_bluenose]

I just love Defoe and Alfie in a manlovey type of way. Genuinely two top guys who get the club get the support and want to be winners with us.

 

[Arminius]

Love seeing this. A new generation of supporters with genuine heroes.

Totally agree

Sunday was a day that that wee lassie will never forget as long as she lives.

A bear for life. That’s what little gestures like that mean to our future fans.

In years to come, we’ll still be talking about Defoe and what a classy, classy guy he is. We really are blessed to have him.

Up there with Ray Wilkins

 

[George Goudie]

This player has surpassed all my expectations.

I can see him promoting our club for years to come. A wonderful statesman and Rangers ambassador long after he leaves the club.

 

[Ibroxkev]

Bonus is the top will fit her as well

Heard that he was out on Sun night, walked up to the first bird he saw at the bar & said get your coat love you’ve pulled.
She took one look at him & said “You’re a little forward aren’t you?”

 

[Abu Dhabi Loyal]

Loved the story from young Bradley's mother that the wee fella had a soft spot for the Rangers and so it was only fitting that JD signed for us.

She was behind the scenes before the match too, you see them on the Inside Ibrox feature on RTV

 

[Barrymoped]

Unfortunately for a few of the idiots in our support it probably won’t.

But back to the OP, excellent gesture by a top pro and genuine good guy.

 

[Coop]

What a bloody good human being JD is.
That wee lassie will cherish that for the rest of her life.

This is why our fans need to stop taking these stupid things to our games.
That wee lassie will probably be scared for life now.

 

[vinnie]

I fucking love The Rangers!

 

[Blastie Bear]

He loves the Rangers and we love him.
