Life tends to make us take different paths,
physically distance us from what we want, but fortunately there are feelings
and memory to give validity to what we love, our passions. For decades I have read the most fabulous stories of the Bears across the
globe with a common denominator, the repeated desire to return one day to Ibrox
to see a game and share a pint. At the end of the day, celebrate the reunion with the identity.
I do not remember how many years have passed
since I met Stuart (@RangersLoyalSA) and his passion for Rangers. With Stuart, we created Rangers Loyal South America to expand the voice of Rangers in the region. From a remote place in Buenos
Aires, the Argentinian capital, where he is living for seven years, Stuart
encouraged his love for The Mighty to each of his children, which always meant
something valuable to someone like me who was not born in the United Kingdom.
The longing, the desire to return is never abandoned.
Now, I want to help him, and if someone can
help me help him, I will be eternally grateful. Stuart has three children:
Henry, Ally (I don´t must explain why he has that name lol) and Harry. They
were never in Ibrox to see a game -only Henry was around Ibrox when he was only
a month old- this would be the first time, we all know that these events remain
for life in our personal stories, a matter of proud to tell to our descendants.
Although Henry was born in England, he speaks English and Spanish impressively
(I was always surprised by the spontaneity to move from one language to the
other in a matter of seconds), the rest are Argentinians, but not so much, if
you know Stuart´s house is full of British flags!!!
Next July 12, three generation of the Sinclair
family will be in Ibrox for the Europa League first qualifying round against
Shkupi. The mere fact of writing it make me goosebumps. And I want to give them
a gift, help them to be in
the pitch by seeing their heroes in the first person. It would be unforgettable that the children will enter on the pitch with the players. You know that being a Bear flag was one of the
best things I´m going to take away from this life. Seeing the atmosphere of
Ibrox from that center of the world is something that everything Bearette and
Bear should do sometime in life. I would have liked Jim Hannah to be at the
front of all this, I think he was a specialist and he knew how to empathize
with these stories, although he is serious and that was very good for that
position, for something was the boss!!
From now on I will hit all the doors necessary
to make these young people fulfill their dream, if someone can help me, we will
be shoulder to shoulder so that The Rangers Family added more stories to their
inexhaustible tradition. Seeing those wee Bears smile is worth it! WATP
