Been far to long since these nights, hopefully we’re all back in the stadium for them. Sure this clip is against Sevilla looking at their kit.

The champions league isnt what is was anymore.
Would be happy to bow out with £35m and a pass into the Europa for an extended run.

This is always one of my favourite videos - the Barcelona match in 2007, video shot from the away end so you get a better recording of the sheer noise level.
Was brilliant that night before the game, one that always sticks out for me would only been 13 or so at the time was the man United 03 game at Ibrox with the full stadium singing blue sea of Ibrox.

I think we will be lucky to see a full Ibrox until 2022.
Will be gutted if Gerrard doesn't get to manage us on a CL Night at a packed Ibrox.
You need to feel for guys like Roofe as well who have signed for us and not had the chance to play in front of the fans yet when Ibrox is bouncing on the big nights.

Ironically I was stuck outside the Barcelona game in a massive queue for the Govan Rear. Didn't get in until 3 or 4 mins into the game.

Ibrox was nowhere near full that night too.
Was quite a few CL games that year and the next that didn’t sell out completely strangely

Can't wait. That music sends a shiver up my spine when you hear it at Ibrox. Some of my best nights as a Rangers fan was at the CL games

Was that the year we had Unirea etc?
All 3 home games were like 40,000 max .. was strange
It was mate, Stuttgart also. Think the package was 110? Maybe something to do with it not sure non st price
Can’t wait to get back, only been to one CL game. Sends goosebumps down your spine.
Was the 09/10 season mate

I welcome the return to the champions league,as long as we are strengthened enough to compete.
A bit aprehensive as to how any of our "virgin" players will react to a raucous stadium,hopefully not spook them but inspire them.

Something special on these nights and it all kicks in when your walking down the copland with your fish supper in hand and you see the lights of our magnificent stadium. Yes please bring them back.
Aye mate, my one & only CL game.
Aye mate, that was the year with Man United, Valencia and Bursaphor

I think there’s a slight chance we will have a decent crowd if we make groups.
It all depends on how many people have the vaccine imo, they’ll no allow full crowds till everyone over 18 has it I think.

Tell you something, if we get into the CL group stage this autumn and the pandemic has been brought under control and fans are allowed back to stadiums, there won't be a spare ticket to be had for any of the three home games.
It'll be absolutely amazing.
Even if our first game back with fans is against some SPFL diddy side, it'll be a sell out and completely raucous.
One would hope the Subway Loyal might even stay for the entire match.

Gives me goosebumps everytime i walk up the steps to the CF and see Ibrox in its full glory...but takes it to a different level when were in full song and bouncy mode...nothing better in life than bouncing bears !! Fact
Can't wait to get back inside that fucking marvelous, majestic, magnificent sea of blue 5 star stadium

Can’t help but get emotional watching that. Like other plaster have said, can’t wait for some of our new players to experience Ibrox at its best. Galatasaray would have been incredible, qualifying for champions league groups at home, man , what a night that will be!
It was, Edu scored at both ends.
Miller & Foster has decent chances for us, they beat us 3-0 in the Mestalla but I’m sure we hit the post twice.
Should raise the league flag at the end to make them stay
That place was a death trap or I was just really drunk
Was 13 at time of that game aswell mate spine tingling atmosphere that night reckon if we had scored the roof would have came off

They would probably still leave early, Does my nut in, What's the point in going to a game, Just to leave 20 minutes early.
Get home ten minutes quicker.. There’s people I know that leave at HT for the pub it’s mental

Why would you pay 5-6 hundred pounds for a season ticket, Then miss a full quarter of the season. Some folk have more money than sense.

The first time we qualified and the noise against Marseille , Brugge and CSKA was amazing. Not on a par with Kiev or beating Parma to qualify but was amazing
And especially with us being the only British team at the time and being one of the champions league stars in the logo.
The atmosphere will be electric when we get back to Ibrox and those euro nights will blown Gerrard etc away. The champions league music being drowned out to Derrys walls is the best part. Our support and our club deserves it.

Most of out players have experienced a raucous stadium.
If we are going into the champions league then I think new players coming in will have had some experience of a lively stadium too.

That Champions League campaign was a total embarrassment. I can remember questions being asked about Walter after Unirea and Sevilla

If they're that fussed about getting home then they should just stay at home.
Weird mentality. Going to Ibrox is a pleasure, not a chore.
Slightly unrelated, but can't get excited about hearing the Champions League anthem again without re-watching this (skip to 40 seconds in):

Same but domestically was a brilliant season
Massively mate. Fingers crossed we can travel
It was in terms of trophies, I felt 08/09 & 09/10 were pretty poor performance wise which were aided by Celtic being utter dung.
We only won 26/36 in the league both seasons, we stepped it up in 10/11 I felt & that was mainly down to Naismith.
Who cares about performances as long as you are waving shiny things about though, those years are great memories
