The size of them was frightening, they were all about 3 foot across the shoulders, absolutely massive. They made our players look like little boys.

It was 3nil going on 7 , they got to the final that year and no wonder. Mendieta was the main man as well. Yeah typical scottish gutter press branded then the Aberdeen (they were struggling badly at the time) of Spain! They were amazing that season.

tannerall 25,935 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Cruyff, Neeskens and the whole Ajax team in the European finals winners game. Bonhof for Moenchengladbach. Kempes for Valencia. Cooper in his game for Clydebank, if I remember correcty we already knew he was coming to us, but he still hd a terrific game. Kempes for Valencia. George Best got a great reception too, when he played for Hibs against us, and even Kenny Dalglish got a round of applause when he latched on to a terric 50 yard Graeme Souness pass to score in a friendly against Liverpool. When we played a Turkish team called Ankaragucu, half an hour before the game two of the Turkish supporters walked in to the Rangers end which was filling up from the back and stood half way between the crowd and the track wall. They unfurled ad Ankaragucu banner about 6 feet by 10 feet. I'd never seen anything like that back then and there was a sudden intake of breath from the whole Rangers end as we realised what had happened and what could happen next..........then suddenly someone started clapping and the rest of the crowd joined in the applause at the sheer cheekiness and bravado of it. Normal business was resumed as John Greig scored twice in the first twenty minutes and we won 4-0 and to their credit the wee Turkish guys kept their flag flying.

The Widow's Son 399 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Remember applauding an Arbroath player named Fletcher - blonde and full of running, scored too if I recall. They won 3-2 at Ibrox during the (very) early 1970's. I think that Andy Penman also played for them that time. Maybe some of the older bears can help me out with this one. Also recall some good players with St. Mirren - Cameron Murray, Bobby Adams and Bobby Pinkerton. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassettger 378 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 The whole Ajax team after they beat us 3-1 at Ibrox in the Super Cup Final in the 1972-73 season. Rangers played well but were simply outplayed by the finest club performance I have witnessed at ibrox. The passing and movement was unreal.
