Dear Mr Galloway,
I am writing to you firstly to thank you for finally being the first person to speak out about this disgracful campaign to slur the name of Jock Stein. This campaign has been going on for several weeks, in fact months as i remember sitting in the away end at ibrox for the last old firm game of last season and hearing the morons singing the song. it has been swept under the carpet by all in the press and by all those on radio and not one single person with any voice or any authority has even batted an eyelid or dared to condem this spiteful campaign. that is until yourself brought the issue up on your radio show and in your newspaper column. So for being the first to do so, thank you.
I am also writing to ask if you could please use the power that you have to please help stop this sickining campaign. There are several celtic supporters like mysel who are making an effort to stop this through a campaign of letter writing to people in positions of power, i.e. David Murray, Martin Bain and Gordon Smith, however i fear our complaints and concerns will fall on death ears and the greatest manager in scottish football's reputation will continue to be besmirched by these idiots. I therefore feel to help stop this campaign of shame, a figurehead like yourself is needed to help fight the campaign. I therefore ask that you consider my request and continue to condon these morons actions and also use your position to lobby these people in power in order to get this stopped.
Finally, I would like to say how disgusted I was by the actions of those who attacked you at Glasgow airport. Thankfully I do not think you will ever allow these people to stop you from speaking your beliefs and fighting for what you believe to be right.

Thank you for you time,

Yours sincerely

Ryan McGregor

That pic you posted would be some banner to show the huns exactly what big Jock did for their dying.

Does anyone remember the rumours about Richard Gough's alleged indescretion in the early 90's with a member of the Rangers Youth Team in a Glasgow Hotel room ?......I wonder if Wally knew ???

Not that we would ever stoop to their level !!

Maybe it's just me. Maybe I don't read enough papers, watch enough TV or listen to enough radio, but the only mention I have ever seen on this is in here.

Or maybe I don't go looking for evidence that other people are dobbers, I know that they are. So I don't visit FF to find out that they're saying horrid things about tims - I'm sure that they are.

66 Rangers fans died Overkill when the barriers failed and they were crushed - a bit like Hillsborough

Not to take into any game, never mind old firm, what I meant was, it would be a good banner to display for a press picture e.g. to let the huns, who are carrying out this campaign against Jock Stein, see exactly what he did for their dying at Ibrox.
