Bill 13,717 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 My ailing memory says that his debut was against Arsenal and that was the same day Jorg Albertz played his first game for Rangers. But I could equally just be talking bollocks. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tannochsidebear 2,306 Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 The best player I have ever seen play for us, he simply IS the Messiah, and will be for the rest of my Rangers supporting life I am quite sure. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he arrived I had never seen a player at Ibrox that could do the things he could do. What made it more entertaining was that neither had our challengers. It was about 7 or 8 games before teams had any idea what to do about him. Easily the best player to ever wear the jersey and we are so lucky to have been around for that era. I'd dearly love my kids to have the same experience of going to watch Rangers with a star player like him on show. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laudrup though....I still remember the first game of the season v Motherwell and his solo to set up Big Duncan Ferguson for the winner. Best ever Ger for me. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill 13,717 Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Despite my Laudrup confusion, I'm reasonably sure Albertz did make his debut against Arsenal at Ibrox in (I think) a 3-0 win. I also seem to remember we had another big name making his debut in that same game (who was outshone by big Jorg) but can't for the life of me remember who that was. Does anyone remember? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there and if I remember correctly both new signings scored. Is that right? And am I right in saying that the other player will be forever remembered for his horrendous miss later that season? My memory is fading but hopefully that's correct. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Jocky Bjorkland signed around the same time as Albertz. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
