Boab 73 Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 He said: "It's agony watching Old Firm games. Some of my most special memories came from those derbies."I'll always remember scoring the winner in a 1-0 win at Ibrox but right up there with any of that was the day I hit Robbie Keane with a couple of tackles in the first three minutes."I still watch those clips even now and every time it gets better. Keane looks like he can hardly breath and I know how he was feeling - I didn't catch a breath myself for the first five minutes of that one.Great quotes. http://www.<No links to this website>/football/spl/rangers/2011/02/18/i-d-run-up-the-road-on-one-leg-for-chance-to-play-in-old-firm-clash-says-ex-rangers-star-kevin-thomson-86908-22931730/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AGM_72 4,085 Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 We do miss him, I think. Well, the injury-free Kevin Thomson. Who knows whether he would have picked up the injuries he has down south, up here. Probably wasn't worth the gamble of keeping him to find out, though, given our record with players who're more susceptable to injuries.Was my favourite Rangers player during his time here.

Smile 26,624 Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Great quotes. http://www.<No links to this website>/football/spl/rangers/2011/02/18/i-d-run-up-the-road-on-one-leg-for-chance-to-play-in-old-firm-clash-says-ex-rangers-star-kevin-thomson-86908-22931730/When i've met Thomson your always surprised how wee and frail he looks for a real tough tackler, but he did a number on Keane that day pity through injuries we never saw the best of Thomson at Rangers.

Chuck_Fickens 425 Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 Some of the comments at the bottom of that page make me want to heave. But aye, as much as I liked him as a player and was disappointed when he left (was ejected), can't help but think we dodged a bullet with regards to his injury problems.

1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Was furious when he left.Altho, with the benefit of heinsight it's worked out OK as he's had a couple of leg breaks and he would have just been another stat on the sidelines for us.
