A true Rangers legend. Being a Celtic fan he did break my heart on more than one occassion but you could only stand and admire the man's skill and ability. That's god got his wingers, Jinky on the right and Davie on the left. Sleep tight lads

@Jamie-kv9eg5 жыл бұрын
The rangers support know how good a player he was and at the end of the day that’s all that matters. Same thing with Gerrard. Obviously everyone knows he was an incredible player but people still bring up the Premier league. Had he moved to chelsea in 05 he’d have won the Premier League but ultimately he’d just be another player. Instead he stayed and became a Liverpool legend. Same with Davie. They’ll always be remembered by there respective club.

Ah, what a player. Just watching these clips takes me back to the time when I was a young lad playing football for various boys' clubs. Unfortunately, my dad wasn't in to football and hence I wasn't encouraged. I felt as though I had the magic eye, particularly as I always played in the older teams and wore the number 10 right mid jersey. I recall watching the Aberdeen vs Rangers game live that is featured @ 2:34-2:43 in this compilation. You could hear the ball "crack" the back of the net! ACE!
