There was a Celtic fan going mental at the bar saying that this result proved Scottish football was corrupt and the wee teams only try against Celtic. One of the few highlights of a grim season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz FFC Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I caught the Real radio phone in the Monday after and in true style because Celtic didn't win then it was somebody's fault. The ref got a fair bit of the blame for it but the queue of Celtic fans waiting to call in was incredible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in a pub before the 2-2 game at ibrox listening to the "there's no competition" patter then going back to the car after they were absolutely fuming "McLeish must go!!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utter melts both sides of the c**t-line They treat every defeat like this, because of their perceived divine right to win every game. Anytime they are roundly thumped by someone they see as being less than themselves, it's some sort of travesty or disgrace that has occurred. Both hilarious and cringeworthy in equal measure. The **** have taken it up a notch, as they have with all their other delusions, as they struggle desperately to convince us all that they are the same club. They now celebrate hard, #remember harder, and are stauncher than ever before! Be grateful for it, it makes you c***s seem almost decent! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Ralph Brand? I remember his laddie being an estate agent in Falkirk, but don’t remember him turning out for Falkirk. He was a big time player for Rangers and Man City, so I don’t quite understand how he is supposed to have signed for us given that he was second choice to the wonderful Denis Law for the Scotland centre forward role. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My auld man was a Falkirk supporter who had a soft spot for Rangers as well. If this was the case he'd have told me about it, given how often I used to moan about folk like him with a big team! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started going to games in 1962 as a kid and don`t recall any close relationship with Rangers and we certainly never signed Ralph Brand. We did pick up a few Rangers rejects in the latter part of the 60`s but it was over a number of seasons. Craig Watson, Alex Ferguson and Denis Setterington spring to mind. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was not what the Falkirk support thought or called itself. It was how Falkirk was look on by other clubs support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
