A real Rangers man and club legend , happy birthday big Ham n egg.
Everyone talks of John Greig the hardman, the leader, the never say die warror. He was all of those, and brilliant at them, but firstly he was a bloody good footballer.
Capped by his country as a right back, a centre back, a left back and a midfielder. 120 goals for Rangers (more than Mark Hateley). A key man in 3 treble winning teams.
There are many worthy candidates from our magnificent past to sit at the very top table. John Greig is beyond debate as to having a place there.
My boyhood hero, and I feel privileged to have idolised him.
Great post, my hero as well. I remember being 3:1 down against Morton and the big man rattled in two long range goals to save a point.Everyone talks of John Greig the hardman, the leader, the never say die warror.
