My local team during school days. Great to see them back in the limelight for a bit. Hopefully they can some extra folks along after this run.

Burgh used to be managed by George Walker a big Rangers fan for something like 25 years.
Remember him travelling on Tudor Loyal bus for some matches.

Was an excellent day on Saturday. Never seen Keanie Park like that, and my local was the busiest I'd seen it in a long time.

Leon King too.
No he wasn’t.
Can’t be any worse than the mentally challenged fuckwit McKimm

He'd certainly be wise to wait until the summer and see if they make it into the premier.

Twitter rumours are wild, as nice as it would be it’s not true.
Me too, once.

Brilliant atmosphere on Saturday. McCoist and King were great with fans young and old after pics and autographs. Great article by Hugh McDonald as well

Didn’t they used to play junior cup finals at Hampden.?
If my memory serves me well I think my grandad took me to see Cambuslang Rangers v Irvine Meadow sometime in the 70s at Hampden.

I was at the Scottish Cup semi final game against Greenock Juniors at Keanie Park in 1964 when the recorded crowd was 13,000, way above the official capacity. Sadly Greenock won 3 - 1.

Superb.
And regardless of people's opinions of them, the Ultra's 'scene' has reinvigorated youngsters when attending football and given them a more exciting day out and increased camaraderie etc. They are also providing exciting atmospheres and fan culture instead of general silence.
I only see it as a positive.
Its brilliant see and it is vital the yoof attend football matches as they lifeblood of the future.

The kind where you went over to take a corner and didn’t think you could reach the 18 yard box never mind the back post.
4-2 away win tonight at Neilston
Yes. 1986 was the last one. And what a final it was

Nicol House is the only player I remember from those days. My daughter and his daughter are "besties" as they say nowadays.
