Gaffbear 4,101 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Weird nobody mentioned this yet. Ruud Gullit interview: Excerpt from Sky Sports Interview on the eve of Scotland v Holland, November, 2003 I read somewhere that in a Dutch interview you said that Davie Cooper was the most skilful player you have ever played against. Was that true? Ruud: Oh yeah! That was a great player. A left-sided genius for Glasgow Rangers. He was such a great player - truly gifted. Did you play against him many times? Ruud: I played against him, yes. I played against him once when I was playing for Feyenoord in a friendly match at Ibrox - I remember it well. I saw this player and ever since then I have been following him from then on. What a gifted player he was...he was a real talent and had a gift alright. Wow, a great player. I have never had the pleasure of watching him play, but when I hear the stories of older Bears it shows how much he meant to them and the club. Never forgotten. Signed the summer i started going every week. Was the greatest i've seen in a Rangers jersey and was my idol growing up.......devastated the day he died.

thedarvelmarvel 796 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 my memory of davey were playing against danny mcgrain he always had davey up in the air first takle, but davey always ran rings round him after because mcgrain was off if he did it again and he was no slouch of a full back but d.c roasted him..

Emerson 2 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 The first death I ever cried over. Relations had died, friends had died but this one hit me the most. I remember at school, we were asked if we could be anyone who would we be. Others said 'Superman' or 'James Bond' etc. I said 'Davie Cooper'. My Hero. Our Hero.
