Players that support the rangers

[Orange Peel]

Here's one, Simon Donnelly. Supported rangers as a kid despite his name.

So you would pick him over all the quality players that supported Rangers?
Fs.

 

[alba73]

Not now though, Celtc are his team. His father Tom good guy, signed by us but never made it to first team.

My old chemistry teacher and Simon was in my cousins clsss at school. Posters of super covering his school books.

 

[Jjbscotty]

Dalglish.

 

[Blue boy]

John Wark

Film star as well.

 

[Blue boy]

Allan Smith from his Leeds era

He will be signing for us very soon.
Done deal

 

[IanDurrant]

Denis Law

 

[huistra23]

Great Player
but
We don't need him !!

Coz we've got John Greig,Colin Stein

 

[simply_the_best]

Dougie Arnott. Felt like he was always scoring against us too.

He was certainly a thorn in our side, first I've heard he's a Bluenose.

 

[Brisy]

Not now though, Celtc are his team. His father Tom good guy, signed by us but never made it to first team.

His auld man was our science teacher at our school I'm sure, think he was a P.E teacher at some point. Never knew he was signed by us.

 

[Conlig Loyal]

Gordon McQueen

Gordon McQueen was on TalkSport years ago talking to Alan Brazil about something and Brazil mentioned that weekends Old Firm game.
He asked McQueen if he was going to it.
"Isn't it at Parkhead?" Gordon asked.
"Aye," replied Brazil, "You going?"
"Nah," said McQueen, "I'm not going to that dump."

 

[Jamiegatami]

Lex Mclean
Rikki Fulton
Stanley Baxter

Rikki Fulton had a short spell as Rangers manager which was ended after his 1st team coach Gregor Fisher tried to get him to sign Gerrard Kelly.

 

[ForGodForCountryForever]

Robbie Fowler or Alan Smith from the past, both super players and just the sort youd like in your Rangers team.

From the here and now I thought Oli McBurnie would be a similar type to the aforementioned, albeit it not quite as good obvs. When Sheff Utd got relegated I wondered if Rangers would move for him but it never seemed to happen and now probably never will.

 

[BVTCHER]

Bomber, would have killed for us.

 

[Dingmeister]

Kenny Burns

 

[Johnny Quid]

So you would pick him over all the quality players that supported Rangers?
Fs.

No lol. I was pointing out he was a rangers supporter.

I should have read the op instead of just scanning it.

 

[Orange Peel]

David Hannah

He's the 1 player you would pick?
Fs, worse than donnelly.

 

[rinosprayer]

Chris Waddle

 

[SimonLeBon]

Allan Smith from his Leeds era

Every summer we were signing him back in the day

 

[willowbankbear]

Kenny mclean at Norwich is a bear

 

[Orange Peel]

I didn’t realise it was only good players we had to pick

Please accept ma apologies m8

It doesn't say anything about good players either mate, it asks who you would like to have seen play for us that supported us.
A mediocre jump the dyke?

 

[Forza_Napoli]

Oli mcburnie

 

[Orange Peel]

Ah did it didn’t read that bit haha Hannah or Donnelly playing for us ffs

Too early mate.

 

[Spitfire]

Great Player
but
We don't need him !!

Coz we've got Colin Stein!

 

[Boabmeister]

Davy Armour.

Worked with his brother Tommy

Lovely fella , a KP true blue

 

[Madjid Moments]

I’ll throw in this one. You wouldn’t think it but Stephen Craigan.

 

[Slim Jim]

Sadly no longer with us.

Yes, sat beside Davy in the Govan Stand rear up till his death. A true blue ok.

 

[Jingle64]

Kenny Burns

Beat me to it. Great player who would run through a brick wall for the cause. Brother in law is a massive Birmingham city fan and raves about his time there.

 

[barrheadbear]

Steven Gerrard

Was there not quite a strong rumour during his playing days that if he had to chose which Glasgow side to follow it would have been that lot?

 

[barrheadbear]

He was certainly a thorn in our side, first I've heard he's a Bluenose.

Arnott always gave Gough a hard time.

 

[SimonLeBon]

Was there not quite a strong rumour during his playing days that if he had to chose which Glasgow side to follow it would have been that lot?

Nope.

 

[Walter Sobchak]

Chris Waddle

Boutros Boutros-Ghali

 

[TN8]

Eusebio and George Best are new ones on me I have to say. Are there any quotes from Best about us or is it just because he was a protestant from NI?

 

[Noddy]

Nope.

He told Andy Lynch he was a Celtic fan. Not that it matters, his true love is Liverpool and then Rangers.

 

[Teddy bear]

Since folk are mentioning shite ex Tim players I'll say Darren Jackson.
Couldn't believe it when I seen him in the Rangers end at the nou camp 2007

 

[SimonLeBon]

I seen him as well

 

[MearnsUnionist]

Here's one, Simon Donnelly. Supported rangers as a kid despite his name.

Probably because his dad played for us.

 

[Googsly 8]

Gordon McQueen was on TalkSport years ago talking to Alan Brazil about something and Brazil mentioned that weekends Old Firm game.
He asked McQueen if he was going to it.
"Isn't it at Parkhead?" Gordon asked.
"Aye," replied Brazil, "You going?"
"Nah," said McQueen, "I'm not going to that dump."

I can remember (maybe 78 world Cup) an article on the Scotland squad at that time asking if they would sign for us as the first Catholic and from memory McQueen said yes but not as the first one. Pretty sure most of the squad said no. Jordan, Rioch, Mason,

 

[Thor]

Mike Tyson

 

[Noddy]

He was always a Rangers fan, his dad Adam was a Hearts fan.

 

[Duranman]

Mcqueen is not a Catholic

He was my old chemistry teacher.

A good guy he was!

 

[Bill Struth]

Eusebio and George Best are new ones on me I have to say. Are there any quotes from Best about us or is it just because he was a protestant from NI?

Podcast with Bill McMurdo , his agent and friend for years, said that he was a Rangers man and was dying for us to come in for him at the time he signed for Hibs.

 

[Bill Struth]

Kenny Burns

And John Mcgovern from the same team .

 

[AndyWebsterLoyal]

Players that support Rangers narrows it down a little bit, particularly if you exclude those who have merely said some good things about our club in the past.

So the correct answer is David Bruce Smith. 8 years a player, over 300 appearances and ecwc winner. RSEA patron and regular attendee of rsc / club functions who always has time for his fellow supporters. ST in the Govan rear, away games if tickets allow and euro trips when practical. 78 years young next month yet still pays his way to follow our club everywhere he can. Ticks both boxes for the op, a great player for and staunch supporter of our club.

Take a bow Dave Smith, top bluenose and Rangers legend.

My dad’s favourite player. Always talking about him as I was growing up.

 

[BIGBISCUITOOO]

Rikki Fulton had a short spell as Rangers manager which was ended after his 1st team coach Gregor Fisher tried to get him to sign Gerrard Kelly.

Just a clip that you could watch over and over and still laugh.
Showed it to one of my English mates, he just sat staring at me as I started to pish myself laughing.

 

[Truckerman]

Xander Clark

 

[Roughmussel Ranger]

And John Mcgovern from the same team .

As was John Robertson who was the subject of a player focus in the Forest programme of a game I attended in about 1971-1972 and answered "Rangers" to the question about which team he grew up supporting. Mind you he was a chubby "wing-half" who looked nothing special in a struggling Forest team that was relegated that season so hard to imagine the European Cup winning and Scotland winger who terrorised full-backs that he was to become.

[Jonathan E]

Kenny Burns

Kenny Burns was actually signed by Rangers as a youngster.

We let him go and he joined Birmingham City.
