A Rangers Fan's Story

Covers the Rangers' history, describing the momentous matches and achievements of the club since 1960, from the point of view of an ordinary Rangers' fan. This book includes a subjective account of the Rangers' players, managers and games that have contributed to the history of that great club.

Rangers being the world's most successful club, means that the good times have far outnumbered the bad times over the past 50 years and the author has been there throughout to see all of them. This journey down memory lane will celebrate the great side of the early 60s: Ritchie, Shearer, Caldow; Greig, McKinnon, Baxter; Henderson, McMillan, Millar Brand and Wilson as well as remind readers of the 4 European finals that Rangers has participated in. Famous European and domestic victories will be recorded, 9-in-a-row remembered as well as the darker times such as the Ibrox Disaster of 1971. Apart from the author's personal experiences of the last 50 years in following Rangers, he also shows us what was happening in his own life while these events were taking place. He admits that when trying to recall events in his own life he usually manages to do this when he associates these with what was happening to Rangers at the time. This book celebrates his life as well as that of the club that he has loved for over 50 years now.
