Today is the 40th anniversary of the game. I hoped to go to the game but couldn't get time off work.

Freezing cold night, even by West of Scotland ‘standards’.

Total respect then and now, to all the Chelsea supporters who made the long journey up and back!

Great footage

Ally and the late great actor Robert Duvall.

Looks like John is having a good chat with Tiny. Not sure what Billy is looking at. John,, Billy and Tiny: three legends in Scottish football. Don't know who the linesman is.

October 1987. Rangers went down to 9 men after Woods and Butcher were sent off. Celtic's McAvennie was also sent off. Celtic went 2-0 up but Rangers came back to draw 2-2 with Richard Gough scoring the equaliser in the last minute. Roberts went in goal after Woods was sent-off.

Not a bad bench. From between 92 to 94 during Big Slim's second stint at the club. Davie Dodds joined the coaching staff after retiring from playing in 1991. The late, great and legendary Jimmy Bell on the far right. A man who knew what Rangers was about and made sure that new players understood what playing for Rangers meant.

My grandparents and my parents attended the Rangers Sports until they ended in the early 1960s.

My grandparents started attending them just after the end of the First World War!

The greatest ever Rangers. A great shirt as well. Probably my favourite.

Butcher, Munro, Drinkell, Brown, Ferguson, Souness and Sterland.

60-61 season.

Stewart Kennedy saves at the feet of Ronnie Glavin. 4th January 1975. Rangers won 3-0 and it was a pivotal result in the title race. Kennedy was outstanding for Rangers as they won the title.

He was made the scapegoat for the 5-1 hammering Scotland took at Wembley in May 1975.

Admittedly he didn’t play well to say the least. However,the rest of the Scottish team didn’t exactly cover themselves in glory, Kennedy had been injured against Northern Ireland on the Wednesday and decided to play against England on the Saturday. The rest is history.

He never really recovered his 1974-75 form for Rangers, but did win two more League Championship medals and two Scottish Cup winners medals.

I was at the game at Wembley in 1975. My first trip to Wembley. I went with my Dad. As you say Kennedy and the rest of the Scotland team didn't play well. England scored from at least two long range shots and Kennedy should have done better but England players were given too much space. Very different from two years later when Scotland won 2-1.

It was two League Cup Winners Medals not Scottish Cup Winners Medals Stewart Kennedy won. He only played in one Scottish Cup Final that of May 1977. When Celtic won 1-0,

Pre Season 1975-76.

A repeat of the score this coming Sunday would be great. A great volley from Ray and a superb diving header from Drinkell.

A rarity. Davie is going to use his right foot.

A footballing genius with his left foot! Seriously!!

The great man would have been seventy years old today!
