August 27, 20241 yr Author Durrant after scoring Rangers first goal in the 2-1 win over Celtic in the 1986 Skol (League) Cup Final.
August 27, 20241 yr It was 5-1 to Rangers after just 62 mins of this game! I’ve always thought Rangers ‘took their foot of the gas’ and settled for 5-1. Celtic, that day, seemed ‘out on their feet’ when the fifth goal was scored. I was in the lower Copland Road Stand and directly in line with Ray Wilkins, when he struck the ball for that fantastic second goal. Edited August 27, 20241 yr by erskblue

Agree, they could and should have scored more. I've checked who Chelsea played on the day and it was home to Blackburn Rovers and we lost 2-1. Leaving Stamford Bridge the score from Ibrox was announced. At first I thought I'd misheard the score but no. I was a very happy man knowing that despite Chelsea losing Rangers had won.

I’m sure there was quite a bit on Chelsea in the Rangers programmes that 1988-89 season.

I'm sure I have a few Rangers programmes from that season. I'll see if I can find them. Could take a while as they'll be buried along with all the other programmes I've bought over the years.

August 30, 20241 yr A rare headed goal by Davie Cooper. Against Forfar at Ibrox in a League Cup tie in August 1978. In fact a header of any kind by Davie was rare to be honest!
