Crowds where obviously smaller but saying we regularly got crowds of under 10k for lesser league games at Ibrox I’m not convinced this is true. Yes the odd ones, not regularly as you mention. Have a look at some of the old records. Here is one link. As for the tarriers they managed plenty of sub 10000 crowds and that was their official figures! http://www.fitbastats.com/Rangers/club_records_league_attendance.php Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How reliable is the link? I was at one or two of the games.

How reliable is the link? John Greig's last two full seasons as manager the average attendances were 1981/82 18,519 and 1982/83 17,969, according to The Rangers Football Companion book over both seasons there where 9 games in total over both seasons with attendances under 10,000,one against Dundee the Saturday before Xmas, the rest were games near the end of two poor seasons, what I remember was being in the Toby Jug by about ten past five without leaving early!
