WALTERS RANGERS, PHENOMENAL TURNAROUND

[damon]

Rangers won the European Cup Winners Cup '72

Teams including Liverpool,Chelsea,Bayern Munich,Sporting Lisbon,Barcelona and plenty others.

The fact that counts is Rangers played their way through the tournament defeating the likes of Dynamo Kiev,Bayern Munich, Sporting Lisbon and Torino.

What happened after the game wasn't a first in European finals. Ajax,Bayern Munich and of course Celtic fans had also invaded the pitches in their time, with no consequences.
The Rangers fans invaded the pitch in celebration and the Spanish police were extemely heavy handed. It's not as if the Rangers fans were fighting with the opposing fans ( as 99.5% were Rangers fans)
Rangers got banned for two years later having it reduced to one year and yes not being able to defend the trophy coz of the Spanish Police over reacting and nothing more.

Rangers were also the first team to play 3 European CWC finals...different class!

They invaded the pitch before the game had finished cos they were shitting themselves that Dynamo had come back from 3-0 to 3-2 & were looking like making Rangers the first team to lose 3 ECWC finals, different class indeed!!! 

[damon]

made 3 finals though and the first to do so and 3-2 is still a win.

[damon]

Since the famous rivalry began the stats are as follows.

Rangers v Celtic

Rangers won 149, drawn 92 and lost 134 ( not including the war period...b4 yous start another debate)

It is quite close after so many years but RANGERS just edging it.......if only yous knew the history.

[damon]

a forgot

Rangers have also a goal advantage of 22

3 CWC finals. Why were you in the Cup Winners Cup in the first place?

[The Dundonian]

Remembering of course that that other massive club, Aberdeen, have also won it.

3 CWC finals. Why were you in the Cup Winners Cup in the first place?

My 18 year old nephew wants Damon to tell him what the Cup Winners Cup is??

He's never heard of it!!!!
Question. Name the last three Scottish Clubs to play in European club finals

Clue: despite being the establishment club, despite being ' the people', depite having three different
       sides in the 90's ( one for the league, one for the cups and one for europe), despite Murray's lies
       and Walters cardigan none...I repeat...none of them are rangers!!

Even Bucks Fizz have been in a European Final in the last 30 years!!!!

Aberdeen, Dundee United and Celtic

The ECWC was an added bonus.

As I said earlier we have the better of the Head to Head with Celtic,Aberdeen,Dundee Utd and the rest.

Every dog has its day ( even the TIC) but for Rangers to come out in front in all the Head to Heads should prove something. In 1966/67 Celtic were the better team than Rangers...BUT over the long term ( 134 years) Rangers have been the best team Scotland has produced. Does it no just ye make proud to be a Bluenose.

We have won 51 ( yes fifty-one) league championships- WORLD RECORD. European trophies are nice to win but like all other top teams,the League is priority and we've done it more than anyone.Does it no just make ye proud to be a Bluenose.

Did I see a Dundonian on this forum talking about football? Hope no! Dundonians are better stickin tae, whitever they dae...but no talking football.

Tinsel, tell yer nephew that it was the European trophy played for by clubs who had won their domestic cups (sometimes runners up)
and the Uefa Cup was for teams who liked City Breaks

Rangers also hold the record of entering the European Cup/Champions league the most number of times without actually winning it.

They hold the record aggregate defeat in a European Cup semi final. Losing 12 (yes TWELVE!) - 4 over two legs to Eintracht Frankfurt in 1960.

They were also the first team ever to be banned from defending a European trophy.

They were also the first club to be knocked out of Europe TWICE in one season in 1997/98. Losing to IFK Goteburg in the CL qualifiers before being knocked out of the UEFA Cup in the 1st round by Strasbourg.

They Hold the record defeat in a British domestic Cup final losing 7 (yes SEVEN!) - 1 to Celtic in the Scottish League Cup Final in 1957.


"As a Scottish football club , they ( Rangers ) are a permanent embarrassment and an occassional disgrace. This country would be a better place if Rangers did not exist " -  Ian Archer - Glasgow Herald - 1972.
