Just the wait indicator whirling away - been like that sice before noon-'debacle' would be an apt description

It has always been 'the light blues' for as far back as I can remember but that's just a name the media like to use. I've never once heard a supporter use it. The shirt was royal blue but it seems to have varied a bit over the years. Some years it seemed more like the colour of the Everton shirt.

1960 v Airdrie at Broomfield, taken there by my older brother. Can't recall the date but must have been winter because I remember the floodlights on. Can't recall the score either - mostly I remember it for seeing Baxter for this first time. The team was probably the Niven, Shearer, Caldow team that we had scrawled on our school haversacks then. The other thing I recall was the Airdrie goalie, Lawrie Lesle, who was also the Scotland goalie at that time. Alas, he got injured before the England game only to be replaced by one Frank Haffey. The rest is history.

Worst Rangers team I have ever seen without doubt - that's since my first game in 1960.
