Nigel Spackman

2) "His future in the south of France had looked uncertain within months of his arrival. In December 1991, it was reported that the financially troubled club were prepared to sell him back to Rangers to cut their heavy losses.[3] However, he stayed with the club until the end of the season. Despite reports on 22 July 1992 that he had agreed to sign for English league champions Leeds United,[4] he returned to Rangers four days later for a fee of £2.2million.[5]"

yeah mate pride myself on my geekiness, basically had about 300 rangers books by time i was 6 and just read them repeatedly and watched all my dads old VHS's and dvds. Things i don't think kids these days pay much attention to

 

[RutherglenLoyal]

[albertz_the_hammer]

I did and I'm 34. I know who both players are, obviously, Just don't know enough about their careers. The third one I had forgotten he played for Porto before moving to England.

Amazing to think that four of the players who played in Porto’s winning final later played for us.
