Wee Bud 141 Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 The picture would be 1977/78,Davie and Gordon both signed in 1977 and that was the last season we wore that strip. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rmc54 469 Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Yep, I should've looked closer when I posted it , I was looking for a photo of John Greig on the chariot ,couldn't see one but saw that photo and didn't look hard enough, although whoever belongs to that photo has def got it wrong with the description .

Rangers have just beaten Motherwell 2-0 to clinch the title (Peter McCloy in dark top which is red because it is Motherwell) Also in the John Greig Testimonial didn't Rangers wear a special top with writing about the badge?
