    Absolutely right, his opinion Bears deserved to be brutalised by the Spanish Police should have meant he was never considered for any position at Ibrox. On top of which he clearly isn’t up to the job.

    Don’t think that’s right. They made a bid which was higher than the bid by Green but it wasn’t even considered by Duff + Phelps.

    Hately was immense but it's big DJ for me. Centre half or centre forward he was comfortable in both roles and was a superb player.

    Difficult choice between these two.
    Hateley ?
     
    Johnstone ?
     
    Any others ? (For a wee guy Alex MacDonald scored a lot of great headers.)

    One was amongst the most famous British footballers, the other probably unknown to most. 
    Yet both had the honour of wearing our famous colours on the Ibrox pitch in front of 10s of thousands of fans, and we all knew they were loving being here, and thoroughly enjoying themselves in the process. And both apparently great guys too.
    For me Ray Wilkins was a model professional, not too many players get to play for great teams at their peak like Milan, Chelsea. Man United and the Rangers. He played football the way I wanted to play. Thoughtful, intelligent, playing for the team, consistent, focussed, and with many moments of great skill and brilliance, for both England and us. 
    And Stuart "Broxi Bear" was a model professional too, probably a natural, it's not easy keeping Gers fans entertained, as most of us know, but he did it at every home game we played, a hero for our younger fans 
    In their own way they both brought a special kind of football magic to our club, each to a whole  generation of Rangers fans. 
    R.I.P Ray and  Stuart, both Rangers heroes.

    On the 17th March 1877 Rangers contested our first ever Scottish Cup Final against Vale of Leven.

    Our Scottish cup campaign of 1877 saw the young Rangers, after trips in earlier rounds to places such as Mauchline in Ayrshire, incredibly reach the Scottish Cup Final where the mighty Vale of Leven lay in wait.
    Vale had caused a sensation of their own in an earlier round by handing Queens Park their first ever defeat on Scottish soil.
    The final was to be played on 17th March 1877 at Hamilton Crescent in Partick and our lads got to work to make sure that they were prepared.
    Moses fondly recalled tuck-ins of ham, eggs and steaks every morning after a 6am rise, then a 10 mile training walk and a 90 minute session with the football. This was all in an attempt to make themselves bigger and stronger.
    The lads would train for the Final at their Kinning Park ground often late into the night and because of this the local residents  daubed the Rangers ‘The Moonlighters’ a name which would  stick with us for a few years. 
    To say that the final of 1877 caught the imagination of the Glasgow public is a massive understatement as thousands made their way to Hamilton Crescent.

    The match first played on the 17th March ended in a 1-1 draw with the Rangers goal coming via a Vale own goal. A crowd of over 8,000 attended that day to see this team of youngsters take on the mighty Vale. The draw actually saw the young Rangers team carried off shoulder high by the crowd.
    The replay took place  on 17th April  William Dunlop scored in normal time ,that game also ended 1-1.We then went into extra time William Dunlop scored again but the goal controversially was disallowed.
    Glasgow Professor of Surgery George B McLeod was standing behind the goal and was prepared to take an oath and vow that the ball had actually went through the goal and struck him on the head then landed back in the goal-keepers arms!

    The match umpires were consulted. One umpire gave the goal one umpire said no goal and the third who was on the field of play said he was too far away and couldn’t say for certain.
    The goal never stood.
    This led to supporters of both sides invading the playing field, bedlam ensued and the match was duly abandoned. Of course the moral of this particular story is that The Rangers were being cheated by referees 10 years before celtic were even formed!
    The Scottish Cup of 1877 was eventually decided at first Hampden, with Vale winning 3-2.
    This series of games saw the transformation of the Rangers from what was essentially a boys club into a respected football club one which caught the imagination and admiration of the Glasgow working class.
    The Rangers were never to look back.

    Predictable and pathetic. Did nothing but bleat about this for years and years  to silence the big bad Rangers only to find its done them more harm than good.  So........  let's get it repealed,  Its the Catholic way.
    Never mind eh? A bit of a rethink, a few tweaks here and there with OBFA 2 should see the desired affect. Fk every last one of them.

    Was he not brought in to help Murty, you would have thought he would have a say in the subs, and when to bring them on. He knows all about beating the scum, and when we scored so early he should have told Murty to keep attacking, instead of sitting back.

    When Cummings was being interviewed there the commentator mention there was a huge roar in the the dressing room when the draw came up and Cummings said yes because that's what we wanted.
    That's what we want to hear, full of confidence and no hiding from this mob.
