Scottish Football, Music and Drugs, Where Did All The Love Go? Part 2
Music - 1983-2018
Apart from the Rangers songs I'd been brought up on I never really knew there was a music scene unless it was ' I belong to Glasgow ' or ' The Northern lights of old Aberdeen ' sung by drunken aunties and uncles at new year parties, or some Tammy Wynette or Rod Stewart on a Sunday courtesy of my mum.That changed as the Bowhill war memorial club started underage discos playing brutal 80s Stock Aitken & Waterman dross.Scottish Football, Music and Drugs, Where Did All The Love Go? - Football 1983 - 2018

Gazza – The Talent, the Tears and the Road to Perdition Part Two of Two
Walter Smith’s 1995 summer capture of England’s star of Italia 90 was seen as an absolute coup de maitre. His arrival at Ibrox captured the imagination of the obsessive Gers fan base and stoked up expectations to white hot level. And despite Gazza’s appalling injury record and a much maligned battle with his erratic weight gain, the ‘Geordie Galactico’ proved to be as successful as the manager who signed him by amassing the biggest trophy haul of his career; two League Championships, one Scottish Cup and one League Cup. Furthermore, he secured a place in the greatest ever Glasgow Rangers team and was also rightfully inducted into the Rangers Hall of Fame.
