Rangers Vintage

[Boyne]

A place for posting photos, videos, stories, comments etc about Rangers players, teams and games- and also photos of Ibrox and the surrounding areas - in days gone by. This picture has already been posted before but shows a player who played for both Chelsea and Rangers. No prizes for naming him.

@erskblue @Scott @carrickblue and others. Enjoy posting and looking at stuff about Scotland's finest.  As I've mentioned before I would hate to see Chelsea play Rangers in a competitive match. Would be a case of divided loyalties.

One of the most famous goals in Rangers history. The winning goal in the 1973 Scottish Cup Final. Scored by the late, great Tom Forsyth.

The pavilion of the second Ibrox Park. Built 1899, demolished 1928.

Ipswich gave a brilliant performance. It was 2-1 going on 5 or 6-1, that sunny Saturday back in early August 1981.
The gulf in class was that big.

Rangers playing  at Ibrox Park in 1920. The pavilion and grandstand that can be seen on the right of the pitch, were replaced by the new (and current) Main Stand  in 1928. The 'Bovril Stand' (North Stand) can be seen on the left. Ibrox would remain a bowl shaped Stadium until the summer of 1978.

Top picture is late June 1978 and the very early stages of the demolition of the Copland Road Terracing.

Bottom picture. May 1979. The new Copland Road Stand is nearly completed. 

These two pictures were taken from very nearly the same spot.

Seconded. I think they are currently being archived on The Rangers Archive website. That will be a gold mine of amazing Rangers historical information.

After beating Celtic 3-1 in the Dryburgh Cup Final of 1979. Davie looks happy. Not surprising after the goal he scored in the game.

Love the pictures of the old stadium lads, cheers

I know I'm biased but for the Main Stand at Ibrox is the finest stand in football.

Recently posted elsewhere but what a great header and goal by Doddie.
