RANGERRAB 3,276 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Remember the midfield of Russell, Bett and Redford - arguably better than we have now. A more than decent player for me. Shocked by this. RIP Those three in MF with a certain Davie Cooper out wide. yes that would have been a MF and a half.Unfortunately in that side in the early 80s the defence and keeper were never up to the same standard since the Jardines, Forsyths,Jacksons etc past their best and those brought in were never anywhere near as good. Sad news indeed. RIP Ian Redford 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

lenzEK 0 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 He did and Redford was asked to fill the left back role on occasion to accommodate. Very sad news indeed. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrahimHemdani 1 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Redford was a classy player in a classy midfield. Puts a different perspective on your life when former athletes younger than you pass away. RIP 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
amms 0 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Tragic news. He scored some great goals, I remember a ridiculous goal from close to the half way line once. He was an interesting guy, he had a classic car museum and a beat on the Tay at one time. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Rebo's Big Blue Nose 0 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 I do recall him rattling the underside of the bar from 35 yards at the San Siro (v Inter in 84). The rebound fell to our current manager, who subsequently produced the worst timed header in the history of football. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anchorman 0 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Always remember him as someone who who wasn't afraid to show his vulnerabilities as a human being i.e. freely admitted to lacking confidence to 'fill the Rangers jersey'. I always found that honesty an endearing side to the man. He also showed the guts to stick with it through those personally challenging times in the famous royal blue to turn in some excellent performances and prove he was 'fit to wear the jersey'. Rest in peace Ian. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
