I'm sure Snelders had a shocker against Strasbourg? Gough was very poor in a lot of our European games. One game he was excellent in when we got pumped was v Grasshopper away. Could have been 5-6.

We went to 5 at the back from 94 onwards when the direction was more heading towards a back 4 at the top level. I don't think we ever looked comfortable playing it.

Sentimentality comes into it, and the older player will tend to get the appreciation more than the current player. I honestly cant really separate them. Shagger is excellent but I do think goram just shades it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think Goram was better though. Goram was much better at cross balls and with his feet. Don't think I've ever seen a goalie struggle with the ball at his feet the way Klos did.

And he made 2 or 3 howlers in that season as well. Most notably 2 in the one game away at Dundee United that we lost. Anyways. Amazing keeper regardless but McGregor just gets my vote after this season. Also has to be remembered he could barely train in his last season due to the state his knees were in at that point, it was said that he could barely stand they were so painful, hardly surprising that his form dipped, still it says a lot for him though that he was still first choice keeper.

bornabear 6,198 Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Andy Goram and Shagger have made many outstanding saves for Rangers, so many that we could debate the saves for weeks, probably months. Some will go for one, some for the other, that is how very good they were and how lucky we were to have two of best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanMK 4,654 Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 The old guard will say Goram. The younger fans will say McGregor. The old guard have the benefit of witnessing both players. But the old guard are also a bunch of mwi bastards who cannae be trusted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He saved us a pumping of Athens - factoring in 92/93 Goram punched well above weight in Europe, if judged on that platform he was excellent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter huistra 1,740 Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Goram came up against better players than what Shagger has (in Scotland). See when posters are saying Goram was good with his feet they meaning saving the ball with his feet or actually with the ball like control , passing etc ?

Ross-Gazza genius 1,902 Posted April 9, 2021 Author Share Posted April 9, 2021 We have a tradition of finding top class keepers and it's something we must make sure do when shagger hangs his gloves up. It's brilliant having folk that can score but having a keeper that you just know you can trust to keep you in games is equally vital and it needs to be mad cunt as well 😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie0202 12,216 Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 I'm a fan of Goram but fuck it I'll say it. His save against Van Hooijdonk is vastly overrated. Not even close to McGregor's save from the Thumb in January. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
