Remember it was suggested Sons of Struth be renamed Weans of Wilton when someone traced Craig’s family tree and found he was directly descended to William Wilton through his mother. Craig had no inkling until it was pointed out to him, so no doubt Rangers were in his blood.Craig is the guy at the forefront of the SOS Football Academy mate.
whats your issue? Sandy was part of the sos just as Craig was so why shouldnt he be applauded for what they done. Cant just pick and chose because of one persons life away from ibrox.
You might just see Craig with a high viz vest mate, just look out for him.If Dave King and the 3 Bears were the brains and the money behind our liberation, make no mistake, Craig Houston was a major battlefield general and responsible for the biggest pair of boots (and balls) on the ground.
The guy did so at much personal sacrifice and in very hostile and intimidatory environments, dealing against the rats.
Any Rangers supporters who have not read ‘Sons of Struth Demand the Truth’ should do so. It’s a great read.
If I am ever fortunate to meet Craig Houston, I hope
To shake his hand, thank him and buy him a drink.
Sandy has spent the majority of his life using our Club’s name to organise fights with moronic like minded arseholes throughout Europe and any link to him tarnishes Rangers name.whats your issue?

I did see him once on a match day with a high viz jacket, but he was busy working outside the ground helping the crowd and didn’t want to interrupt him. Hopefully see him properly one day.You might just see Craig with a high viz vest mate, just look out for him.
It was a hard time.Will be completely honest and I know ill prob get tore to shreds but I was one of the people to ignore Craig and not care what he had to say. I was fed up with everything and just wanted to watch my team. I didn't boycott and renewed my season ticket as well as I thought that if I didn't then we could potentially lose our club forever, I thought with no money coming in the chancers in charge would sell and mortgage everything they possibly could for the funds to keep us going.
Looking back on it now I have nothing but gratitude for Craig and the rest of the guys who broke ranks and took part in the boycott and got actively involved.
no issues with who funded most of the sos banners etc but.Sandy has spent the majority of his life using our Club’s name to organise fights with moronic like minded arseholes throughout Europe and any link to him tarnishes Rangers name.
Shake his hand next time.I did see him once on a match day with a high viz jacket, but he was busy working outside the ground helping the crowd and didn’t want to interrupt him. Hopefully see him properly one day.
My brother and I have been friendly with Craig since we were kids. You wouldn’t believe the shit he went through to help save the club, it was shocking and should never be forgotten.If Dave King and the 3 Bears were the brains and the money behind our liberation, make no mistake, Craig Houston was a major battlefield general and responsible for the biggest pair of boots (and balls) on the ground.

As aboveNoticed him in an official bouncer like role for the pre -match act of remembrance at the statue recently when players/staff came out the side door
And the Easedales didn't tarnish our name??Sandy has spent the majority of his life using our Club’s name to organise fights with moronic like minded arseholes throughout Europe and any link to him tarnishes Rangers name.
Sadly you are correct FB.And the Easedales didn't tarnish our name??
As I said earlier, we always turn on our own.
That's a bit excessive tbh.Aye whatever.
Craig and Sandy deserve be carried to Ibrox every other week in sedan chairs.
My hoose after a swally and a large buffet.That's a bit excessive tbh.
Where would they be carried from to Ibrox? Their houses?, the louden? The underground station?
They absolutely did, I wouldn’t have them at Ibrox either. What’s your point?And the Easedales didn't tarnish our name??
As I said earlier, we always turn on our own.
Well said. A "like" was not sufficient in this instance.The guys contribution to our liberation was outstanding.It should never be forgotten the bravery and determination he displayed.
what’s the story here?No
That was Colin Stewart
Just as the spivs were about to be ousted, that morning, Llambias(I think) called Colin Stewart and demanded he handed over £500,000 from RYD. Colin point blank refused despite lots of threats.what’s the story here?
I believe it was the day King & Co ousted the Spivs, one of Ashley's men inside tried to do a runner with hundreds of thousands of pounds of our youth development money and Colin refused to hand it over.what’s the story here?
Ah yes, I recall that now. Top man.Just as the spivs were about to be ousted, that morning, Llambias(I think) called Colin Stewart and demanded he handed over £500,000 from RYD. Colin point blank refused despite lots of threats.
He is indeed, it took a lot of bottle to do that to his gaffers at the time.Ah yes, I recall that now. Top man.
I like you mate went on the journey with Craig and the sacrifices he made were over and above. People on here who mock the guy are most likely the ones who say on their arses and done nothing.My son and myself supported him on the marches, some of the demos and we also joined the boycott which, even though not fully supported by some for various reasons, some of them I could understand some not so much,I truly believe that we succeeded in the battle with the chancers and crooks who were raping our club. It was very hard to give up our season tickets but we knew that it had to be done. Craig stood up to serious threats and intimidation from the gangsters to carry the fight to them. He has denied it but he was very courageous in challenging them. He, along with some others, deserves all our thanks and gratitude in helping Rangers to survive that awful time. Sometimes leaders simply emerge in times of need and thank God for that.
W.A.T.P.
I don’t recall too many mocking him on here to be fair mate. Rangers Media and ‘other’ sites did, but I don’t think I saw any of that on here. The same guys that dished out abuse to Craig were also very vocal about Chris Graham and were dead against Dave King. Funnily enough I haven’t heard much from them recently, certainly none of them had the balls to come out and admit they were wrong.I like you mate went on the journey with Craig and the sacrifices he made were over and above.

Craig deserves any recognition he gets from the club b for what he done and I personally know a couple of the top people at the club who are very impressed with him.
I wish him all the best going forward and will always be grateful for his leadership during those dark days.
I was similar to yourself. however I didn’t boycott, mainly because at that time, my young grandson wanted his first season ticket, and I wasn’t going to discourage him for any reason.Will be completely honest and I know ill prob get tore to shreds but I was one of the people to ignore Craig and not care what he had to say. I was fed up with everything and just wanted to watch my team.

Yeah, I've literally no idea what the point the poster was making with regards to the Easdale's.They absolutely did, I wouldn’t have them at Ibrox either. What’s your point?
PlayersTruly the worst trait among some in our support.
