The Dude 20,026 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 We had an Orange and purple one in the 90's. It was hideous.I seem to remember Duncan Ferguson wearing it on the cover of the Annual that year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chambo 197 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Green AND Orange to please everybody.Orange is too sectarian, we'll probably need to call it something neutral like 'gold'! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Manticore* 1,893 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Given that it was a one off, and got released in 2002, it's very very unlikely that it will return.In what way was it a 'one off'? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueSuedeSambas 53,781 Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 if anyone ever believed we would be getting an orange top they need their head examined.Exactly. It was never happening and in all honesty I'm not that fussed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamFyfe 1,438 Posted June 27, 2013 Author Share Posted June 27, 2013 Rangers away kit 2002-2003Despite being a massive hit with the club’s supporters, selling over 300,000 shirts, the Rangers 'tangerine' third kit was infamously dropped by the club in October 2002 after criticism from anti-sectarian campaigners and politicians.Rangers were accused of cashing in on the association between the colour orange and its link to certain elements in Northern Ireland. Lib Dem MSP Donald Gorrie said of the strip at the time: “It was a mistake on the part of Rangers to introduce it”.Anti-bigotry campaigners Nil By Mouth also made their feelings clear by saying: “The orange strip has been seen by many as contradictory of the good work done by Rangers in recent times against sectarianism.”After dropping the kit, Rangers maintained that the decision was purely a commercial one.Read more: http://www.thesun.co.uk/scotsol/homepage/sport/4859611/The-top-10-most-controversial-football-kits-EVER.html#ixzz2XPzfaFzh Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
