I know it’s easy to say the words, and we need to see it translate to the pitch, but that is exactly the attitude I would expect from a Rangers player. 

That came at an important time in the game as well. Livi were dominating the middle of the park and winning every tackle. We needed someone to take ownership and commit to a tackle and let them know we weren’t going to be pushed about.
We settled back down after that and started nipping in to tackles as well

Absolutely fucking loved it when he went hammering into the Livi player on the touchline. Would have been easy to just usher the ball out, but took the ball and the man and won the throw. Complete steel.....exactly what we need.

So..
The wee man and I had a superb day. He was genuinely buzzing. Got his scarf, programme, spent a bit of time with Broxi et al in the fanzone and had a random photo with the bold Andy Cameron MBE in front of the main stand. He didn't have a clue what was going on when the game was on..kept asking where Broxi was..
Made it to 61 minutes then fell into the deepest sleep imaginable, slavers the lot. Gave him 10 minutes then dived off for the subway.
Lots of great photos taken aswell as a video of us hand in hand up the steps into the Copland Road for his first look. Priceless.
Cheers for the suggestions all.

Just make sure you get a photo of it.  This is one of the best moments of my life taking the wee man up the stairs of the Copland for his first game against Falkirk in the championship season.  

Hes now been to 7 games and we’ve won all 7. 

Make sure you slap the areas on top of doorways as you exit. 

As you said,  buy them their first scarf. Take them into the shop and let them decide what style they want,  buy it and put it on.  Brings a tear to the hardest man's eye.

Taking my 3 year old son tomorrow for his first look at Ibrox.
Plan is; train in, some lunch, buy him first scarf then the game.
Any traditions anyone can pass on to make the experience as memorable as possible? (Appreciate its doubtful he will remember it when he grows up)

The tonic of success.

Papac was back in Scotland for Kris Boyd’s testimonial at Rugby Park on Saturday.

The 38-year-old played in a Rangers Euro XI beaten 6-3 by Boyd’s Killie Heroes.

Papac, who was part of the Gers side that reached the 2008 Uefa Cup Final, sees no reason why the current crop can’t continue making their mark in the Europa League.

He said: “It’s great to see Rangers in Europe again. I have watched every game on TV and seeing those matches at Ibrox again is terrific.

“I am so surprised by it because we have not been in Europe over the past few years and the lads have coped with it really well.

“The team has the opportunity to make that next step and the games against Villarreal and Rapid Vienna are very important for them.

“In 2008, we didn’t know that we were going to make it to the final. We just played from game to game and grew with every match.

“We weren’t the favourites in many of the games and just tried to do our best job in every match. We will see how it goes.

“Gerrard is doing great and has made real progress. I am surprised but so happy to see it.

“His background as a successful player can help him. He was a great player and won so many trophies. He can certainly bring Rangers some new power.

“Will Rangers get back to where they were? Of course. Why not? If you look at history, Rangers have had gaps without trophies in the past as well.

“This is one of those times and you must accept this, but I think the future can be special. If Stevie Gerrard stays, I think there will be progress in future.

“And it can be soon. I think that is possible.”

But Papac, three times a title winner under Walter Smith, is not convinced Rangers are quite ready to give celtic a serious run for their money this term.

He said: “It’s difficult to say as it is too early. The season is long and we will see how this team is playing in February, March or April

“That is a very important time and we will see then if they can compete with celtic for the title.

“You need a big squad if you want to compete in the league and in Europe, as well as the Scottish Cup. It is not easy to do it.

“Everything is new with Rangers. I think everyone is surprised to see them doing so well, so we will see.”

Papac was a serial winner during his six years in Scotland and is now hoping he can play another vital role in helping out Gerrard.

The former fans’ favourite admits he is only a phone call away if Gerrard wants any scouting advice on the Balkan market he has already sourced to good effect.

Papac said: “If I can help, then I am here. Right now players from Croatia are very interesting for everybody because they did so well in the World Cup.

“You can find some good players there and they are not expensive. This is important. It can be a very interesting country in future.

“Nikola Katic and Borna Barisic came over and, of course, Eros Grezda signed from Osijek

“Scouting and watching players is not my job but in future who knows? I have no job right now and I am waiting.”

Papac retired from football with a groin injury when he left Rangers in 2012, but he remains a fully paid-up member of the supporters’ club.

He added: “I come back two or three times a year. I watch Rangers games every season.

“Last time I was here was back in May when we celebrated ten years since the Uefa Cup Final.
scoring drought

“I still watched the games when we were in the old Third Division.

“This is my club. I will support Rangers to the end of my life.

“Every game on TV, anywhere, I will watch the games when I have the chance.

“I had a great six years here. The best time of my life was here.

“My family also had a great time here and I have great memories that will stay in my heart forever.

Died more times than he played for us.
Some achievement. 

Not seen this in here. Interview with the gaffer. Good insight into the man. Looking forward to seeing his film.

The man with the golden flute.

Was it not a double he scored against the filth at Ibrox in 97, we won the match 3-1 

Was just going to post the exact same as yourself.

I wonder if McGregor has made more match winning saves/top drawer saves than Alfredo has scored goals. Would that be a fair comparison to decide which player was POTY so far?
There's obviously more to it than that, but I'd be willing to bet that there's not much in that stat?

Add me to the following lists:-
Never heard of him Thinks whoever he is is jumping on the bandwagon Couldn't give a toss.

I always had it in my mind that Eric Bo Anderson had scored 3 against them. Maybe that was in total though
