BlueThunder 8,454 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 I've just had a bit of a clear out of the house and found two original VHS tapes:Rangers FC: The Champions leaguehttp://www.amazon.co...hampions leagueHighlights from Rangers' 92 assault on the European Champions League, including action against Marseilles, CSKA and Bruge.Battle of Britainhttp://www.amazon.co...ttle of BritainHighlights from Rangers confrontation with Leeds Utd in the 1992 CL qualifier. So, I was thinking of giving them away as part of a competition, assuming that people still have VHS machines and want to watch these matches! Mind you, if not many are bothered then I'll just give em to the first couple of guys on the thread.Next match is away to Arbroath unless I'm mistaken. How about: -- The person who correctly names our first goalscorer and who is closest to the goal time (not before) gets the CL video.- Person who gets nearest the opening goal time (not before) irrespective of the scorer gets the Battle of Britain one. (Minute taken from the official site report )One entry per person, and no sneaking back to edit If we don't score then I'll get my 5yr old kid to chose whichever names she likes best or something like that. (I look forward to username changes to My Little Pony etc)julesscotia Clark 2 minsDande101 Law 3 minsrangersfc77 Jon D 7 minsmrwin Jig 9 minsbluesbro1976 Mohsni 17 minsConnor-lyon-RFC Mohsni 37 minsBlackManRedemption Jon D 46 minsRFCRob Jon D 50 mins Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 I honestly don't know anyone that owns a VHS player anymore Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueThunder 8,454 Posted November 16, 2013 Author Share Posted November 16, 2013 I honestly don't know anyone that owns a VHS player anymore Thats what I feared. Perhaps we 'older' Bears still have one knocking about somewhere. My GF has a VHS player actually. She only half-jokingly offered to chuck it in too, winner collects Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WadeWilson 4,670 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 I have a VHS player attached onto the bottom of a portable TV... Still watch the old videos I taped back in the day. My guess at goal time would have to be 46 mins. Big Jonny D the scorer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always remember the VHS tapes getting fucked when they had been sitting about for a while. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always remember the VHS tapes getting fucked when they had been sitting about for a while. No, I haven't. Just my luck that some poor bugger will win them and they'll destroy his machine! BMR, rob, if there aren't many takers then you two can have first dibs. Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozblue 4,331 Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 I've still got a VHS player and many Rangers videos stored away in my garage, but I converted them over to CD's before I stashed them away. There wouldn't be too many of them used these days I'd imagine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueThunder 8,454 Posted November 25, 2013 Author Share Posted November 25, 2013 Looks like Rangersfc77 gets the CL video, and either JulesScotia or Dande101 gets the other, depending on the official site.EDIT: JulesScotia, as the official site has 2 mins.julesscotia Clark 2 minsrangersfc77 Jon D 7 mins Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
