Yeh, i was told about this at the Burns Night the other night. Eric is now in a wheelchair and suffers from Alzheimers. I hear Jimmy Millar is not that great either.

Don54 25,548 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 120 Years ago on the 13th April 1898 a supper was held in Tom Vallance’s Metropolitan Restaurant at 40 Hutchison Street, Merchant City Glasgow. It was held to mark the 21st Anniversary of our first Scottish Cup Final in 1877 v Vale of Leven. It was this series of games that was to change the course of our Club’s history. The small memorial plaque at the bottom of the invitation lists players whom we’d sadly lost since the Cup Final. Sandy Marshall, Peter Campbell, William Dunlop and goalkeeper James Watt. As a footnote, Tom Vallance was actually having the results of Rangers matches wired to his restaurants and announced to his patrons as early as the 1890’s.

Don54 25,548 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 7 hours ago, harlands plater said: Red socks with black tops? Rather odd but seems we wore them in 2-0 home defeat to scum 30/9/2001. https://leftmidfielder.wordpress.com/2017/09/28/ger-seys-a-short-history-of-Rangers-kits-from-1987-onwards-part-two-the-nike-years/ has an explanation for it. The shorts were the standard white, and as plain as you can get, with no piping or pinstripes. The socks were a bit more contentious. While Rangers had previously not shied away from using sock colours other than the historical black and red, the announcement that the team would wear red socks with black tops during the forthcoming season was met worth consternation, and the club quickly backtracked. Figure 14 Rangers’ 01-02 home kit, as per launch That’s the story I vaguely remember at the time, and Denis Hurley asked if I’d be covering it in this piece. While I’ve found a photograph of the kit launch with Barry Ferguson sporting said red socks, I can’t find anything from the club that acknowledges the red socks were a mistake. They were certainly only worn in one competitive match – oddly against celtic at home in the league in September. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
