    young Eric who I knew quite well died n a car accident in Kuwait and had ironically enough broken his left leg out in Saud Arabia in 1996  --- never realized how much he resembled his dad until saw the photo posted by @mrmojorisin
    RIP BOTH ERICS

    Sad news about one of my heroes. When you think Eric played 407 competitive games for our club, and was never booked once. Also Eric never scored a goal from open play and was first Rangers player to represent his country at world cup finals. Eric is what you call a true Rangers man RIP.

    Very sad.
    Absolute Gent.
    I invited him down for our end of season RSC do once but he had to cancel a few days before, due to his wife being unwell.
    He said it was a shame as 'Laura & I like going to the dancing'  ☺️
    Tremendous full back who unfortunately broke his leg in 3 places after a shocking tackle by England centre forward, Bobby Smith.
    He also lost his son in a car accident.
    On a lighter note, he always had a stormer against Them & in particular Jimmy Johnstone. When asked once if he'd ever managed to get past Caldow, Johnstone replied "Only once ....but I was driving my car at the time".
    The word legend gets thrown about too much these days, but he certainly was one.

    Unfortunately was not old enough to see him play.  But he was captain and mainstay in the early 60s Rangers team that I believe was probably the greatest Rangers team ever.
    R.I.P.

    In today's World, the term Legend is thrown about easily.
    Today, we lost a truly Great Legend.
    Eric was a brilliant full back and I will always remember him as I have done for over 60 years.

    Sad news indeed to hear of the passing of ... Daddy Long Legs .... as he was also known as .... due to his uncanny ability to be able to outsmart forwards as he seemed to be everywhere .... not many got past Eric Caldow .... at Club or Country level.
    As said above .... also the epitome of what a Rangers captain should be .... a hero on the park and an ambassador and a gentleman off it .... I could go on about him for ever.
    Deepest sympathies go out to his family and friends on this sad day.

    He’s absolutely spot on btw. That tonight isn’t his fault. He goes for it from 45 onwards and the players yet again let him down. 
    The midfield is nowhere near the quality needed at this club and what Gerrard expects. We need at least one top class midfielder in January to push on for this title.
    We’re by no means out of it, but fuck me we should be ahead by a bit

    Utter pish.
    If he can't cope with the responsibility of playing with this club, then he is a liability. You do not win titles with your main striker constantly suspended. We cannot afford the luxury, or we remain forever second to them.
    He either shapes up or we get him to fuck. NO man is bigger than this club.
