harlands plater 17,065 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Scored the first goal in THAT Drybrough Cup Final, a goal largely forgotten because of the unforgettable quality of Sandy’s and Coop’s. Although I seem to remember it as a tidy finish, something John McDonald was very adept at. Sure I read a quote from him saying he was literally sick with nerves that day and he threw up on the pitch after scoring. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you are going to get Richard Gough, John Brown, John Greig or any of the other ex-players who are regularly trotted out at different intervals supporting the board to do that. In all the many years I have supported our beloved club, I have never came across such a piss weak inept mob as this lot; excluding the shonkies who fleeced us left, right and centre. They really are a shower of shite and what makes it worse is that they are 'Rangers men' rather than just your usual generic corporate money men looking to make another fast buck.

Deanzmeanzheinz 4,312 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 It's only a matter of time before Ally gets fucked on this clusterfuck of a thread To answer the OP. John is a proud Drumchapel boy who lived the dream and played/scored for his boyhood team. As mentioned, made his debut at 17 in the Drybrugh Cup Final - the Davie Cooper/Sandy Jardine goals game which we won 3-1 He then scored against Sellick the following month in a league game at ibrox which finishec 2-2 Great left foot and scored a few goals but never quite kicked on after 2/3 years in the team and made way for players like Willliamson, Ally, Fleck I've met him a few times and he's a top guy, loves the bears and swears like fuck ???

Wee Solo scored a couple of great goals v Arsenal on a Friday night in a game the whole world were there to see Clive Allen’s debut and only game I think for them after his transfer from QPR only for him to change his mind. The press that night had only one player to write about and he was in Blue Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he would fall over if you sneezed on him ?, as you said he was a tidy young player who could play but never pushed on possibly down to Greig and a Rangers team on decline.

He scored 77 goals in 230 appearances and won three trophies in a period when we were a pretty average team up against very good Aberdeen, Dundee United and celtic teams. I wouldn't down play his achievements too much. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
