The Widow's Son 399 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Don't recall too much about him since the world was a much bigger place then.. I've largely caught up with him through the old highlights from the early 1990's. Your memories please. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Hedgehog 10,673 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Bang average for me and him playing through an injury for Motherwell in the 1991 Scottish Cup win probably gave him an elevated opinion of his actual abilities. Don’t get me wrong not the worst goalie I have seen but nowhere near the best either. Some might see it differently though 👍 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all my time, I’d rank the Rangers keepers I’ve seen something like this... Goram, McGregor, Klos, Woods, McCloy, Kennedy, Waterreus, Alexander, Wes, Maxwell Can’t say either of the frog keepers left an impression, Bell was fucking hopeless and I’m sure there was another youngster I've forgotten. Oh and of course... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said compared to Goram he was pretty rubbish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing I really remember was the big embroidered trophy on the jersey and that fucking goal. We were spoiled with some of them. I liked all of the Adidas ones. Probably helps who was wearing them mind you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was never the same after that mix up that lost us the 94 final, seemed to make a series of errors including another at Tynecastle that sticks in my mind. Think everyone was glad when Goram got fit again and took the No1 jersey back! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
