I am sure I read somewhere that they had to borrow those as their own tops were filthy, having played a game that day. Rings a bell. Don't think Rangers ever actually played a game in that white kit with the blue star, was for the photo only iirc. We originally played in blue rugby jumpers, in line with stealing our name from a rugby club 😂 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we just went on to actually use them in games as an alternative to our blue jerseys, and started making the same uniforms ourselves. After making our own - a club photograph was taken, the one we all know. Earliest known photo of Rangers FC. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
