That can't be 1924. Jimmy Simpson didn't sign for us till later in the 1920s and wasn't a regular till the start of the 30s.
Maybe it's 1934.

Good point and the Main Stand too. Definitely mistake there then in that date on the picture.

Not sure of the location @Ronnietheranger so you may well be right in that suggestion.

The two league games were played at the cesspit in 1924, and I don't see any Ibrox fixture in TCR that would have housed the sort of crowd that the enclosure is hinting at.
PS, just saw post 7,119.

I think you might be right.
The Celtic player in the picture I think is Johnny Crum, and he joined them in 1932.
I'm guessing it's the Ne'erday fixture in 1935 at Ibrox, 83,000 Att. Rangers winning 2-1,
which proved crucial, as we won the League by 3 points from the Filth.
Also, those socks of theirs with just the two bold white hoops (which could be funkily folded to look like one) did not come in until that 1934-35 season.
As a wee footnote,
Davie Meiklejohn was Rangers Captain
Jimmy Simpson was Scotland's Captain when we beat England 2-0 at Hampden in April.
The photo below is from that same New Years day Game in 1935

Me too @HIHI Big things were expected of Junior McGillvray, so very talented. He was expected to replace Bobby Shearer but Rangers then signed Kai Johansen and as you rightly say he never featured for Rangers first team.
What a team Third Lanark had then!
Sadly Junior passed away in September
RIP
