i have a wierd history of football suporting. when i was 5 or 6 my dad bought be a rangers top for christmas and i am told that i took 1 look at it and burst out greeting. i grew up with my whole family as rangers fans am i couldnt seem to pick a team. when i was little i supported aberdeen, yeah bad eh? but wait till you hear why... i was a big fan of the power rangers and the red one was my fave so hence red = aberdeen. when i was about 7 i had a friend who supported hearts so i just supported them since i wasnt realy bothered but i fell out with him or he moved away or somthing so i went back to aberdeen. it then got to the point where i only suported scotland for a good few years then when i was mibi 10 or 11 i would just say i suported rangers cos my family but deep down i didnt give a shit. then one day when i was 12 me and my cuz went to a motherwell game ( i think it was a cup game against Queen of the south but im not sure, just remember the snow) and i was hooked from then on, i then got my dad to come with me who was a rangers fan at the time and he is now a die hard motherwell fan and hates the old firm with a passion.
on a side note, while i was an aberdeen fan i only ever went to one game, it was against motherwell, my dad took me since i wouldnt stop asking him, although for some stupid reason he bought tickets for the east stand. i had my aberdeen top on under my jumper and my dad told not to take my jumper off no matter what.... but.... when aberdeen scored i couldnt help but whip my jumped off and dance around, needless to say i got some amount of dirty looks. then motherwell got a penalty in the last min and scored so if i can remember correctly the score was 1-1.
as an exrta foot note i was born in feb 1991, somone got me a scarf from the final and it always hung on my wall ( so i think my fate was always to be at motherwell) untill uncle phil died when i layed it down at fir park.
