siddiqi_drinker 14,635 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Just noticed that the big man was just, Sunday 31st, inducted into the Scottish Football Hall of Fame, which in itself is good news. One has to ask the question as to why it took so long? http://rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/wallace-inducted-hall-fame/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy1984 6,314 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Saw this yesterday and couldn't believe he wasn't already in. Nice for his wife and family who out live him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
One Jock Wallace 858 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Jock Wallace was a true Ranger in every sense. Met the man twice and on both occasions was not disappointed. Delighted for his family. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
onefootwillie 1,519 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 I think the reason for this taking so long was that some in the media ( the usual suspects ) made him out as a bigot . I was really surprised and delighted that he has made it . If you look at his record he should have been one of the very first to be in there Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turnberry18 3,204 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Very under-rated. Arguably the best coach we ever had. Before he was sacked he was in the process of building another great side. When I researched this it was only then I appreciated how close he was to doing that, and it doesn't appear to be as widely appreciated as it should be. The young talent he had coming through speaks for itself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
minstral 5,375 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Great news for a man who loved our club, even after the bad treatment from our club, he would not say a bad word about our club. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
centenarystand 2,229 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Back in the days when people were freely allowed to say what was on their mind or sing what they wanted i was at a supporters player of the year dance with Jock Wallace guest of honour. After the dinner Jock took the mic and said a few words before giving us a song, "The cry was No Surrender..." Halcyon days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember I was at one of the annual 'Rangers Rally' events at the kelvin Hall in the early '80's & the Dennistoun Rangers flute band were performing & Jock Wallace took over the lambeg drum for a few of 'the tunes'. The big man was giving it laldy. Brought the house down Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallochBear 1,613 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Nobody but nobody fucked with the big man, he was hard and fair and anyone not giving 100% and living up to the Rangers standards on and off the foield could prepare for right royal roasting. Brought us 2 trebles in 3 years an coach in 72. A true Rangers legend of the absolute highest calibre and probably the last man we'll ever see of his type. Thoroughly deserved and long overdue.

sandyinroyalblue 16,478 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 A true Ranger,a great man and a proud Scot. Shame it took so long to receive this accolade but better late than never I suppose. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom0411 1,229 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Ridiculous wait for him considering he won 2 trebles in 3 years and it has taken the tims 67 years to win 3 trebles. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
