1910 - Rangers 1 (Reid) Morton 5 - Scottish League Division One (15,000)
Although Rangers were to end the season as League Champions,ending a run of six consecutive titles by Celtic,there were still occasions when one or two of the lower teams could spring a surprise,none more so than this heavy defeat inflicted by Morton at Ibrox Park.

Rangers' fifth defeat of the season in only their ninth game was not a statistic that brought much joy to anyone connected with the club.A crowd of only 15,000 voiced their disapproval of the club's management.
1989 - Rangers 1 (Walters Pen) Aberdeen 2 - League Cup Final (Played at Hampden Park) (61,190)
Rangers and Aberdeen contested the League Cup Final for the third season in a row,with Aberdeen gaining some revenge for the previous two defeats with a narrow win
1991 - Forfar Athletic 2 Rangers 5 (McSwegan 4,Ian Ferguson) - Friendly (1,000)
This was a testimonial match for Rab Morris and drew a crowd of 1,000 to Station Park,although the Rangers' side was effectively a reserve side.
1994 - Motherwell 2 Rangers 1 (Philliben OG) - Scottish Premier Division (11,160)

2017 - Rangers 0 Motherwell 2 - League Cup Semi-final (Played at Hampden Park) (44,506)
 
I think I'm right in saying that the 2-1 away win over Leverkusen in 1998 made us the first British team to win in the Bay Arena?
