A Tale of Socks, Stripes & Sensational Support!…
Once upon a time in the magical lands of Ibrox, our hero, Steven Gerrard, leader of the Liverpool legions, found himself embroiled in a kerfuffle of epic proportions. Like a footballing fairy godfather, he rallied to rescue the beloved Jim McAlister, once the chief orchestrator of shirts and shin guards, from his unjust banishment into the depths of kitman oblivion. You see, three years ago, McAlister was chucked out faster than a referee’s red card, leaving him clutching only an empty laundry basket and a wounded pride.
McAlister didn’t just throw in the towel, oh no! He torpedoed to tribunal victory and bagged a ÂŁ13,000 bounty from those dastardly Ibrox bosses. Meanwhile, Luke “the Kit Wizard” Murphy tried cameoing in McAlister’s cleats, but zoom! he vanished off to greener (and less muddy) pastures. Now, with Murphy gone, the locker room titans, led by Captain James Tavernier and his loyal crew, are campaigning harder than a pigeon after a breadcrumb to bring McAlister back to the dressing room fold.
With the charisma of a galloping unicorn and the support of the entire Rangers throng, McAlister’s journey back is championed by Gerrard himself, who once convinced Al-Ettifaq’s desert warriors to adopt him. With various football gods smiling down from the celestial terraces, new manager Russell Martin and sporting director Kevin Thelwell are open to the idea, too. The final whistle lies with chief exec Patrick Stewart, who must decide if McAlister will ride again as Rangers’ kitman extraordinaire. Stay tuned, football fanatics—this game’s not over till the final kit is laundered!
