minstral 5,375 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Jimmy Millar quote (1955-67; 317games 162goals)"When a chap loses his heart to an ideal, there's no going back. It grows and grows within him, growing stronger as the years slip past. That is why, when people ask: "Would you rather play centre than in the half-back line?" my answer comes off my lips as though from a tape recorder: "I don't care where I play so long as I wear the Rangers colours." Just a shame that some of our players thought like Millar instead of money as their God. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senna 735 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Changed times, Minst. You can't expect anyone to necessarily think like that any more, especially if they've not grown up Rangers fans.If this attitude was to come from anyone in the squad though, I'd take a stab at McGregor and/or Davis.

Jimmy9Millar 9 Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 JM was the most accurate header of a ball that I've ever seen whether from noggin to net or to the feet of his inside man. Other guys could power in headers but they hadn't much clue where the ball would end up. Denis Law came close and Alan Gilzean. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
