Was just telling my wee fella about Mark Walters

[usbear]

Pulled up a wee you tube clip

What a player he was wouldn’t look out of place amongst the modern footballer today

He was way ahead of his time and in my top 10 favorite Rangers players of all time

And to cap it off an absolute gentleman!

 

[I believe in Eli]

Absolutely love Mark Walters, sensational footballer. In my top 5 all time Rangers.

 

[thechosenone]

A hero of mine as a boy. Loved the double step over and trying his skills out when playing against my pals.

 

[Family bam]

Takes me back.

A tremendous player for us.

 

[Alex Venters]

Top player.
Contributed goals too.
We sold Davie Cooper because MW was so good.

 

[MarkWalters11]

Mark Walters was an incredible player, I remember as a 14 year old running about trying the shuffle and curls in to the top corner.
If he was playing today he would be worth 40 million all day long

 

[The Golden God]

Any reasons as why Youtube videos never play for me on here? I always get "video unavailable" when I go to play them.

The touch to bring the ball down against Hearts is utterly sublime. Zidane has a similar one

 

[Crown_Defender]

My favourite player when he was at us. Outstanding footballer

 

[bigmarvloyal]

2:55 into that video, the instant control and turn from the kick out vs some jambo, sublime.

 

[Clay Davis]

Too young to have seen him play properly.

My main memory is him tearing it up for us at the masters in the early 2000s

 

[Pvt. Hudson]

Best crosser of a ball I’ve ever seen. He was so skilful, quick and bloody magic. Was so sad when he left with Souness to go to Liverpool. What a player.

 

[SM™]

Sadly the video won't have the very best of Mark Walters because that goal wasn't captured on film, yes, THAT goal, the one that he scored at Tannadice where he beat nearly all of them then lobbed the keeper from an absolutely ridiculous angle (similar to Laudrup v Aberdeen, but with a mazy run from the halfway line added on top of it!).

 

[Scarlett]

My first favourite player. He was mesmerising. What would he be worth now?

 

[GeeGee]

Still looked a great player into his 40s. Remember him tearing up the Masters.

A model pro. Looked after himself and lived a quiet life off the field.

 

[bluestew]

2:55 into that video, the instant control and turn from the kick out vs some jambo, sublime.

I remember being at that game and couldnt wait to see the highlights that night to watch it again....wouldve been some goal

Have you downloaded the the YouTube ap on your fone

 

[broxburnranger]

Up there with Cooper and Laudrup in my time, if we'd had 2 out of 3 of them available this season we would have won the title.

 

[Barrymoped]

Loved him as a kid, fabulous player, fast, skilful and could cross a ball, what’s not to like?!

 

[Partickger]

Always one of my favorite players as a boy, he had a swagger about him.

 

[amabluestar]

Mark Walters.
Was it Durrant who named him Jaffa?
Black on the outside, orange on the inside.

 

[dougsdir24]

So good he once scored from a corner

 

[g/hillger]

yep he was a cracker. loved him.

 

[bucephalus]

My first favourite player. He was mesmerising. What would he be worth now?

According to Derek Ferguson, £6 million.

 

[SA444]

Scored 2 against st mirren my 1st ever Rangers game. Hooked for life.

 

[The Golden God]

Have you downloaded the the YouTube ap on your fone

It only does it when I'm on a desktop. I have a feeling it's do with the addons I have on Firefox.

 

[bornabluenose]

I'd watched him play for Villa and was ecstatic when we signed him .

He didn't disappoint , great wee player and an excellent signing over all .

You lost me at desktop mate, I only knew I had to download the ap before it worked for me

I was same was so excited when we signed him, fantastic skilful player

 

[Chas]

A quality player, loved him.

 

[noucamp72]

A brilliant player for us was Mark.

First time I saw him was in the Scotland England schoolboy international and he was a stand out.

 

[Blaze Of Glory]

My favourite Walters goal is the lob over Raith Rovers keeper Hamish McAlpine. Absolute perfection.

 

[Ianferguson]

Don't know what hurt the most ,Souness leaving or him taking Walter's with him. When Walters played against the vicTIMS i knew we'd win.

 

[MacGyver]

First Rangers player I idolised. Out in the garden, probably about 8 years old, practicing the stepovers. Also, that shirt he's wearing at the start of the clip was the first rangers strip I had. Bring back that magic strip with the squares!!

 

[mark hateley]

So good he once scored from a corner

Against FFs favourite poet Pakki Bonner.

 

[mark hateley]

Scored 2 against st mirren my 1st ever Rangers game. Hooked for life.

Scored on my Ibrox debut too. Only for it to be chopped off.

 

[Cowan_rfc]

Superb. A great feeling showing the weans your favourite players of old when they ask.

Glad I grew up in the 9iar era what a choice whenever it occurs. Walters was a baller

 

[walt mcmurty]

Could take corners from either side with either foot , and of course his trademark double shuffle . The guy was absolutely magic for us .

 

[strathavenbear]

That was one of the best goals I've ever seen and unfortunately will never see again.

In the middle of 2 blizzard as well

 

[I believe in Eli]

Loved a goal against that mob too.

 

[jim_baxter1960]

Absolutely gutted when he left

 

[PalefaceRedskin]

Pulled up a wee you tube clip

And to cap it off an absolute gentleman!

He’s lauded by all who saw him of course, and rightly so, but he’s not quite recognised as highly as he should be in my view. Lauders was so good and came so soon after, Mark sometimes gets forgotten.

One of my favourites, without question.

 

[PalefaceRedskin]

Don't know what hurt the most ,Souness leaving or him taking Walter's with him. When Walters played against the vicTIMS i knew we'd win.

He really made them pay for their horrific racism towards him. He destroyed them time after time.

 

[interbear]

Mark Walters was, and is, a fantastic Ranger. Outstanding talent, work rate and desire to be a success at our club. I loved him. And still do.

 

[Bearsden Bear]

Also, the first honorary member of the Rangers Supporters Trust.

Mark Walters was my hero wen I was a lad.

 

[btl456]

A quality player,a great signing for rangers.
Oh how he loved tormenting the tims.

 

[snoopyboymason]

Great player very skillful

 

[RS_Jam]

I’m sure I was 9 when he signed.

Very quickly became one of my favourite players.

Although I recall being aware of the abuse, it wasn’t until much l realised the extent of it.

Has made me appreciate him even more.

 

[bluetonic]

Absolutely love Mark Walters, sensational footballer. In my top 5 all time Rangers.

Likewise a legend for me

I was there, he beat David Narey three times, one the best gaols I’ve ever seen
