Sweetheart 8,458 Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 5 minutes ago, Don54 said: Nobody from the present could say how good he was all we can do is take the word of people from that era: Former Hibernian manager Willie McCartney stated that Gibson was "The greatest of my, and any generation following, in Scottish football", Steve Bloomer of Derby County and England described him as "The greatest footballer I ever saw", and Gibson's artistry led Harry Wood to dub him "Pavlova in football boots". Still none said he was 100 times better than Bazza ? What a find that would be if he had been caught on film! In the late 1800's films became several minutes long and started to consist of several shots. I wonder if the club has some film archived away from that period or if someone has some in a private collection. It would be great for a Rangers Museum.
