Copland bear 7,966 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 Bomber scored the winner in the last minute at my first ever final and the first time I saw Rangers win anything. We beat Aberdeen in the 79 league cup final. Will be forever grateful and he will always have a special place in my heart. Rip bomber, another Rangers great who will be sadly missed Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

minstral 5,375 Posted June 7, 2015 Share Posted June 7, 2015 RANGERS Football Club is deeply saddened to announce former defender Colin Jackson has died.Colin lost his battle with cancer and sadly passed away peacefully last night surrounded by his family.Former teammate and close friend John Greig commented: “I have known for some time how ill Colin was but I am devastated by the news that he has passed away, I have lost a great friend and my thoughts are with his family at this very difficult time.”The Rangers Hall of Fame member and Scotland internationalist was a towering centre-half who gave the Light Blues 20 years of tremendous service, winning every major domestic honour with the Club in more than 500 appearances.Born in London on October 8 1946, Rangers signed Colin from Sunnybank Athletic in Aberdeen in 1963. He was a tall, slender stopper who was excellent at reading games and denying opponents goalscoring opportunities.Unfortunately he failed a fitness test on the eve of the 1972 Cup Winners' Cup Final in Barcelona but played a significant role in getting the Club to the latter stages of the competition.Rangers fans will always remember the closing moments of the 1978-79 League Cup Final against Aberdeen when Colin headed the winning goal in the 90th minute.Colin was also instrumental in setting up the Former Rangers' Players Benevolent Fund with John Greig, Sandy Jardine and Peter McCloy and he was a regular in the hospitality suites at Ibrox for many years.Rangers Chairman Dave King commented: “On behalf of everyone at Rangers Football Club I would like to send my sincere condolences to Colin's family and friends at this very sad time. Colin will be sadly missed by everyone who knew him.” Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
