    Service Station yesterday morning

    Six coaches, we took over the service station on the M4 before you get into Wales.
    Great to see so many Rangers all buzzing with excitement.
    Some old faces popping up as well

    It was an amazing sight that took me by surprise. I usually drive away games and when we pull up at the services generally see 5 or 6 Rangers fans tops, but yesterday it was mobbed well over a hundred and a great sight.

    Driving back it was also good to pass coach after coach of Rangers with flags proudly on display!!!!

        Good to meet you in Wooten Basset, mate.

        The service station was rammed, and the weather was amazing.
        Your mum would love me...

          Good to meet you too Ben.
          What a lovely little village Wootten Bassett is, there was boozers everywhere and they were all really friendly.
          Great day all round.

            Yeah, they were decent folk. Even stood out to wave us off at the end. I think when they realised we were all normal fans, looking for a St. Georges day celebration, they warmed to us. The police weren't sure how to take us, though.

            The women were in their element. Quite a few of our lads walked away with a set of digits. They were loving the banter.

            Some sore heads this morning too.

              I know I am seen as 1 of the toughest fans in the blue and white hoops but I saw 3 really big units that were r's and I'd of been more that happy with them covering my back
              I played sunday league football today.

              Clearly I was the best player on the pitch.

              I scored 5 and made 7 last ditch tackles.

              We lost 5-0 but the rest of my team were sh it!

                Yeah, the service stop reminded me of Cardiff in the play off final.

                Everyone in good spirits, but most importantly when I looked around me I knew everyone was proper Rangers and I know that going up is gonna mean a hell of a lot to these people. Games like these are for the hard core. We were there in the bad days and we want to enjoy moments like these.

                        My eldest lad, Tom counted 13 coaches. Absolutely brilliant.
