The stadium tonight

[Rangers daft]

Just back from laying a top at the broomloan gates and it is really busy and so emotional. The Copland road gates have 100s of candles lit and is heaving with people paying their respects. God bless you Fernando you will be missed more than words can say

 

[jierobinson92]

I might take a drive over . Last time I did it was Davie Cooper . It’s a moving and fitting tribute .

 

[Superrangers]

Taken far too young.

You have to imagine the tributes will grow exponentially over the next couple of days.

Undoubtedly, the man was a hero to thousands. Certainly one of my favourite players of this century.

Rest easy Fernando.

 

[vinnie]

Even at this time of night. Think I’ll take a drive down and then raise a glass to Fernando on PRW!

 

[vinnie]

What’s it to like for parking? Can we get in behind the Broomloan?

 

[Barca Bear]

I would reckon they would have to be moved, it's an Emergency Exit.

We were up about half seven,both sets of blue gates were packed,but no problems parking

 

[vinnie]

Is it disrespectful to post pictures of the tributes? Many Bears will world over won’t see them. Just a thought.

Not staying in Glasgow and not able to get there, I'd love to see pictures.

 

[Superrangers]

Incredible scenes and a fitting tribute to an incredible fighter.

 

[Klos 1]

Just back from stadium, so many paying their respects, spoke to a Celtic fan & 3 Feyenoord fans there also. Fair play to them for paying their respects. Really moving. Sleep easy Fernando, RIP.

Don’t be daft. Thanks for posting mate

 

[Barca Bear]

[vinnie]

Thats a very good point mate. I’m sure the club will move them to another visible location. (Fingers crossed) they need to be around for a while.

 

[Coop]

Apologies for the iPhone 5 quality!

That post I posted was for you.
I quoted you but it’s not worked for some reason

 

[jierobinson92]

They pictures are really touching what an amazing turn out

 

[The Railway Bear]

I don’t think Sandy Jardine tributes were removed from the gates for the next match.

 

[Toproadloyal]

Thats a very good point mate. I’m sure the club will move them to another visible location. (Fingers crossed) they need to be around for a while.

Maybe relocate them in the ‘fan zone’ in front of Edminston House.

 

[vinnie]

Fucking shite that he is gone

I was filling up just reading the messages. The best of us go early mate. He’ll always be a hero.

 

[Rangers daft]

Im there now mate! Cant help but get emotional!

I know mate i was a wreck

 

[sonowilliam]

Lovely photos Vinnie,very poignant.

 

[Jimmy Jazz]

Some really touching tributes there.

 

[rangersno.1]

Heartbreaking but thanks for posting the pictures some great tributes.

 

[Ayrforce1]

Great pictures and a fitting tribute for a great man.
My own girl asked if she can lay flowers or leave a scarf tonight, I cried.
Read this and leaving my desk again with something in my eye.

 

[Bigcol]

Great photos mate..still emotional

 

[Kwodman]

Absolutely beautiful and heartbreaking all at the same time. I'll be arriving at Ibrox early tonight to lay a scarf. The top that said. "Sleep well for the battle is over now" has placed a lump in my throat.
Rip Fernando Ricksen a true warrior in every sense.

 

[nemessis]

Thanks for those photos we grieve in his passing, but celebrate his life, you will be remembered by all who loved you for being a Rangers player and a warrior Fernando.

 

[Coza]

Will Fernando's family get all the tributes eventually? Assume that’s the process.

 

[MarkieLoyal]

We are heading In now to pay our respects...how is the parking situation? Albion open at all?

 

[two2tango]

I’m gonna pop by later this afternoon to see it

 

[The Railway Bear]

I think that might be unlikely in case anyone tried to leave their car in there

 

[MarkieLoyal]

Aye...never thought of that
