Supporters leave Ibrox after a game in the 1960s, before the cover went over the Copland Road terracing in August 1966. By the look of the happy faces Rangers won :

Great memories! Loved that atmosphere as we all would be singing and celebrating as we exited after winning. Could hear the songs rise high into the air the length of the stairway. Can hear it all again just looking at that pic!

Rangers 4-0 Celtic - Scottish Cup Final, 14th April 1928. McStay handles on the line and it's a penalty to Rangers, who have not won the Scottish Cup for 25 years. Up steps Davie Meiklejohn as the man of the moment and the floodgates are open:

Were they playing with a beach ball ?

It's great seeing the styles of clothing back in the day. So many flat caps!

Who is the Rangers player beside George young

Willie Logie mate. He only played 16 games for Rangers (23 according to other sources) between 1956 and 1958 but was famously sent off in our first ever away European Cup game against Nice a short time after this game, starting a massive brawl.

Rangers v Celtic at Ibrox in the 1950s:

We definitely wore all blue socks with that particular jersey as I seem to remember.

Your right mate, the only time I remember us wearing the black socks with red tops with that strip was for the team photo for the start of the 78/79 season, often wondered why we changed to the all blue socks as soon as that season started?

Don’t know how but now able to see your pics again mate, fantastic, keep up the good work, love this pic of the king.

Cheers mate
