Donated £10 hopefully it helps.
If you can get me in touch with the fella I’ll sort out the just giving page mateAlan is a mate of mine who I’ve met through sitting next to him at Ibrox. When he told me
I couldn’t believe it. Thanks to everyone who has donated and thanks to mosesmcneil (who I know) for setting this up
And moreOpen a just giving we will all help him out mate.
Correct. These things are all stored in the same place, it’s clearly been a mix up.Read the post initially with genuine disgust that someone could do this to a fellow Bear with a disability...
But now I'm also thinking it'd be a pity if the poor crater or his/her carer/steward who inadvertently lifted the wrong apparatus by mistake, for that guy/girl too obviously has mobility issues.
Let's not do a FF lynching until we know the full story.
I would also like to think that is what happened, a carer may have taken the wrong one by mistake. My father in law had MND many years ago and by the stage he needed a walker he would also have had someone helping him anyway, so may have genuinely been taken by someone who was helping as a one-off or not a regular carer.Read the post initially with genuine disgust that someone could do this to a fellow Bear with a disability...

That’s disgusting. If he doesn’t get it back, would he be happy for a bear to replace it? I’m happy to.
Thanks to you all for the supportive words and live it up (who we've never met) for the fund which will cover a replacement. Truly the most wonderful football family in the world. Alan is very grateful for the support and kindness.let’s see what you have got follow followHelp Alan replace stolen wheel walker, organized by Craig Mcfarlane

I'll happily pay in to a just giving although whoever is doing the stewarding these days should be paying up for that. No way should that have been allowed to happen
My mate Alan, a season ticket holder, good friend and staunch bear, was sadly diagnosed with MND last year. I met him and his son when I got my ticket in the Govan 8yrs ago. Several of us have became good friends and travelled to away games, nights at the louden and nights at Ibrox like The Rally.
The point I'm making is that he is a really decent Rangers man and has missed supporting our team in person.
Today he was lucky enough to get to the game but had to use his 3 wheeled walker.
The stewards wouldn't allow it to be stored securely and guided him to a section to leave it.
At the end if the game, he waited for the crows to leave and when he got to where he was told to store the walker, it had been stolen and an old damaged one left in its place.
There was no way this was accidental, I just hope that when the club look into this, that the clown that took it is banned for life.
Hopefully it can be recovered as they are nearly £300.
This really affected my mate and caused him an upsetting end to what should have been a great day.
I like your mindset. Clearly 2 decent minded people that are giving the benefit of doubt but it was taken and the model left in its place was nothing like this one.I would also like to think that is what happened, a carer may have taken the wrong one by mistake. My father in law had MND many years ago and by the stage he needed a walker he would also have had someone helping him anyway, so may have genuinely been taken by someone who was helping as a one-off or not a regular carer.
Exactly, it could never have been a mistake as the person would have known their own walker as would the people who were with them. this is a disgrace and the person who took it is a grubby thief..Defo not a mistake mate. It's an immaculate model and a piece of 5hit left I'm place.
Also, sorry to Name my mate but he's very popular and perhaps if bears knew it was his it might jog a few memories.
I have a pic but don't know how to post.
But the person who had the walker would know the one brought to them wasnt theirs and the carer/mates with them would know the walker wasnt the correct one.Correct. These things are all stored in the same place, it’s clearly been a mix up.
