I saw it from the East Enclosure just to the right of the dugout.Some players create such a magical iconic moment that it blurs almost all else they achieved. With Kai Johansen it was his goal in the 66 Cup Final Replay against the Scum. Likewise Bert Konterman with his goal at the same venue and opposition.
Scott Nisbet's magical iconic moment against Bruges though was something else. I was in the Copland Rear that night and when his shot took that outrageous deflection and looped high in the air, we all rose as one in anticipation. I could see that their keeper had started to come and then became unbalanced trying to get back. Even then it was amazing the height of the bounce over the keeper on what was a mud bath of a pitch from the torrential rain. Almost sure there was an assist from a protestant poltergeist. The place went bonkers.
Big Nizzy would be unlikely to make it into any Bears greatest Rangers X1, but if you could infuse all in that eleven with the heart and determination that he gave every time he pulled on a Rangers jersey, then you would have some team.
Pleased to see he is on the mend.
