This is so wholesome. There's nothing like supporting your local team.

[@lornamurphy7429]

Peter is a legend supporting his local team

[@dylanmurphy4342]

Your very right

[@arranmacintyre377]

He’s a top guy as well I go to a few rovers games and he’s always there and only seems to be happier every time

[@allansmith5248]

Peter =proper football fan....... Albion are a great club..... Lower league is real football,not the glory money grabbing premier league that has wrecked and starved the game for years 🦁👍👍

[@christopherjollie6477]

I love this guy so much see him every game

[@moreflamejack4874]

Yeah same he’s my friends grandpa

[@j-tundifanclub6565]

there’s something different about being a diehard fan of your local small team. Sure you could be a huge fan of a team like Man Utd but there’s some different feeling on sticking with your small team through and through, even when they don’t see the success of big teams or get talked about.

I went to see Stranraer play away in the 70s against Albion Rovers. The Rovers fans used to sing this song. “Who are we Albion Rovers, where are we Coatbridge. “ is that still a chant .

[@wimblewomble21]

I lived in Coatbridge for years and hate to say that I never once went to watch the rovers. My teams 12 miles away in paisley. Always still look out for the albion results mind.

Good man come on St Mirren🇾🇪🇾🇪🇾🇪🐼

[@r.blackford9739]

Well credit to you, at least you didn't choose the either of the sectarian duo most people pick

[@jackwatson7943]

A real supporter,like all fans of lower league teams,unlike some bigger teams where they win most weeks

[@Fernandwinnie]

Brilliant….

[@richardfinlayson1524]

I love the ground

[@dylanmurphy4342]

A true football fan and a glory hunter

[@burkehare01]

A guy who supports his local team ! And the glory hunter not from from Glasgow that supports the old firm

[@josiewallace7968]

Dylan Murphy I was born and brought up in Dalmornock, and Celtic were my local team...

[@robinh102020]

[@jamesskskwm1338]

[@Steven-ml7kx]

[@johncanty3833]

[@lornamurphy7429]

Peter is actually supporting his local team,shes a glory hunter looking for wins,whatever the result Peter still goes and doesn't give up on his team Win lose or draw,a real Scottish football fan

[@dylanmurphy4342]

@@johncanty3833 She could support Partick Thistle

[@dylanmurphy4342]

Peter is a legend Albion arent the greatest team in The Spfl but he still goes because he is a true Scottish football fan but she is a glory hunter

[@davidkelly790]

You are on every single one of these scottish football videos moaning about something. You seem like a very angry and bitter person. Can you not enjoy the spotlight on scottish football and enjoy the positives from this? Btw fans of lower division or non league teams could call you a glory hunter for supporting St Mirren.

[@dylanmurphy4342]

@@davidkelly790 How can I sound bitter Peter is a committed football fan she's one of thousands of plastics that support the old firm and BTW St Mirren fans are not plastic we aren't running away with the league every year are we?

[@davidkelly790]

@@dylanmurphy4342 Just by looking at your posts. You're judging this woman knowing nothing about her ( as you clearly didnt watch the video as it's clear she isnt a glory hunter). St Mirren get more glory than fans of Montrose or Brechin, so you must be glory hunters no? Supporting a successful team isnt glory hunting. You could have commented on the positives of the video, rather than a dig. That's what makes you bitter, your jealousy of the old firm is seeping out of your post. Not saying there aren't glory hunters, of course there are. It isnt exclusive to Scotland, it's common in pretty much every country. It's one of the reasons that most countries have teams that are always there or there abouts every year. Maybe the young woman might end up watching Albion Rovers full time after this video? Who knows. You certainly don't.

[@dylanmurphy4342]

@@davidkelly790 How could I be jealous of The Old Firm they win nearly every week that's just boring and I don't know whether she'll watch Albion Rovers you don't either so stop making it look like I'm some sort of jealous pathetic football fan

[@davidkelly790]

@@dylanmurphy4342 You think that's boring, but if youve never experienced it then how would you know? It is strange that the teams that win most across the whole globe have more supporters at their games, almost as if people want to see their team win? Strange that. I don't have to make you look jealous. Try to look for the positives 👍
