Yes I think you, Templbluenose, and Warren Hill are all correct.
I know it was the days before squad numbers, but I can never remember Alex Miller wearing number 11 at all. Must have been one of John Greig's master plans to stifle the midfield

Rangers v Partick Thistle, 1924.
Glasgow Corporation Transport opened their recreation ground at Helenvale Street, Parkhead in 1924. The Duke of York (later King George VI) performed the opening ceremony, and kicked off a match between Rangers and Thistle.

Bigger crowd in the background than I remember in the early 80s.

In my mind it’s the most iconic of Rangers strips. No badge, no sponsor, but a strip that was known the World over.

Celtic style crowds given out.
Given that the East Enclosure was always busier than the West, given that both the West Enclosure and the Main Stand look fairly full, I can only imagine the 22000 was counted from the Enclosures and Main Stand.

After two dire 0-0 draws the 1979 Cup Final finally came to life in the 2nd replay, Rangers winning 3-2 against Hibs after extra time. The Rangers team celebrate with the Cup.

One of my favourite moments in 50 years of attending Ibrox.
The Cooper pass was just one of those jaw dropping moments of genius that got thousands on their feet in the space of half a second.
And the Durrant finish was what that pass deserved.

That's a great shot, i remember this camera angle from the goal replay. Even though the ball isn't at his feet, McCoist acts like there is and takes a wee swipe, framed perfectly here.

Aitken's vacant look after Coop's reverse is almost as memorable as the goal itself.

This is the 1st time I have seen the programme for the game -Thanks for posting.The Loving Cup (I should send a copy of this to a certain pig-ignorant Glasgow councillor. Maybe he could get a grown-up to explain it to him.) ...
Question regarding the statement on the front of the programme.
It states "The match WAS played" which indicates the programme was printed after the match took place or am I reading to much into this ?

A fantastic footballer who doesn't get thought of as highly as he should.
It's an injustice it is...
