Dont remember the date but Edvallson had scored two for them first half then one by Cooper and two by Smith in second half
73 cup final, beat them 3-2, crowd was huge but aged 14 we didnt know it would be the last six figure attendanceI am 64 years young so have many great memories of Rangers many wonderful triumphs in my lifetime, so far! Perhaps strangely to some of you, mine would be the 1970 League Cup Final when Big Derek won us the cup with that brilliant goal against that unclean mob. We as lots of you no doubt know, had gone four and a half years since winning a trophy, so our end went mental at the end naturally. I am noted amongst folk that know me. as being a bit of a blether, especially about the teddy bears, but at that moment I was speechless! I also was in Barcelona in 1972, but the victory above to me personally eclipses that as it was also the last ever match I attended with my father who I will be eternally grateful to for taking me to Ibrox from age of three. Wish he had taken me earlier! Roll on 55 it IS coming! My first thread btw, after just reading other posts. Great everybody is always so happy!! So, what one game would be your choice, if you could relive it?
Thank you Grigo. I have been on FF for ages, just reading posts etc before joining, and have read your posts which are always good! I would be delighted if I get either 1690 or 1872 likes for my first thread haha.
This is exactly the same dilemma I have. We're clearly of the same vintage!Can’t decide between the Tam Forsyth cup final in 1973 or winning our first title in eleven years at Easter Road in 1975.
It’s memories like that that soften the blow of getting old.
Likewise.First one with my Dad so I could remember it properly.
Colin Stein at Easter Road 1974/75 game were we won the league.
i was in behind the goal when he scored it.
But my abiding memory of this game Is after it.
We eventually got to the top of Easter Road and looked back down.
A sea of Rangers fans in utter delight I can still see it to this day.
Funny it’s not an OF win. It’s 11 May 91, beating Aberdeen 2-0 at home final day of the season. I was in the West Enclosure, place went nuts
If it was a game I didn’t attend but would love to go back in time if I could, then Leeds at Elland Road.
We won at Ibrox but yet all my English team supporting mates were pulling the ‘fluke result’ one leading up to the return. Bang, one of the best Rangers goals I’ve ever seen from big Hateley and hey ho..... all aboard the Smug Express. Toot toot!
Great memories!! Thanks to all the posters!!
For me, the choice was easy..
August 1969 Ibrox
My first OF game was on a Wednesday evening and getting to the top of the Rangers end and seeing -for the first time- the Stadium packed to the rafters ( literally as there were guys up on the supports for the covering) still gives makes me smile.
It was a warm summer night so much of the first half meant the setting sun was directly in the eyes of the Rangers fans as the Yahoos stole a lead up to half time.
Baxter was back and he started pulling the strings in the second half and with goals from Persson and Johnston the last few minutes of the game seen JB playing keepie up, me clinging to a concrete support watching above head height as every Rangers fan sang time after time after time till the final whistle blew.....
We Are The People We Are The People
I was 12 years old
The very same as it was the only time I was at a match with my late Dad and Uncle- A great day which in hindsight was even better because I was there with them.5-1 1988-89 season

I can assure you that where I was sat in Club Deck, people’s phones were going off constantly. You couldn’t get internet on phones then so everyone had someone who was designated to provide updates from Kilmarnock

Was there, brilliant atmosphere and performance. Was it Robert Fleck?
3-2 lovenkrands SCF
This game for me. I was a bit older at 15 but I don’t really remember fully appreciating how mental that day was at the time.
I was the designated ‘score guy’ in my immediate section in the Broomloan courtesy of my pocket radio and I would love to just experience all the emotions of that day again.
