He was unlucky with injuries whenever it looked like he might get a run of games . I was always surprised that he never went home to Irish League football like McKnight , Fitzgerald or Stephen Carson . Got talking to John Morrow's wife when she worked in a local travel agents a few years back and she seemed genuinely pleased that someone could remember his time with us ? bluedylan 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don54 25,517 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Karl Pekarna, our first foreign player, sure I posted a pic of him in the Rangers related picture thread a good while back. Found out about him in this extract on an article about Austrian football: But the key visit came in 1905. Rangers hammered teams just as the Saints and the students had done a few years before, but they did it in such style that Austrian football would be moulded in their image over the next three decades (in turn Rangers were so impressed with the young goalkeeper Karl Pekarna that they gave him a contract and took him back to Glasgow).

And speaking of Irish league players, Ryan McCann, Grant's younger brother. On our books for 2 or 3 years but don't think he made a first team appearance. bluedylan 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inigo 32,526 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Who's more obscure, Colin Scott or Bonni Ginzburg? Dunno. Colin played more but feels more obscure. Mind Bonni losing to Hibs away and drawing away to timmothy after Woods was fucked by Kenny McDowall. Remember seeing a death stare he gave one of our defenders on the Rangers video of that year after losing a goal to some Hibs player. And he fucked up a cross.

NixonRFC 1,333 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Darius Adamzuck, felt like we signed him just to stop the tims getting him, in fairness I think if I remember correctly, Advocaat did give him a chance to prove himself but he just wasn't at the level of many of his teammates in what was probably the most talented Rangers squad I've ever known.

Slightly ironic that he then later on signed Jeremy Rotten, another star of that team... But yeah, Rodriguez was a real disappointment in a catalogue of them from Ecks last season.
