Glasgow Rangers Legends 2023 Calendar

Product Information

Alex McLeish was in the dug-out for the Light Blues with Robbie Fowler taking charge of the visitors but charity was the real winner on the day with a crowd of around 30,000 turning out. The message Rangers must send to Celtic as derby dominator pinpoints the key detail needed to reignite title race But Rest of the World captain Luis Figo rallied his team for the second period and former Spain international Carlos Marchena grabbed the equaliser. No sooner in the contest it was all-square at three-a-piece. Defoe this time linked up with Kris Boyd who appeared as a half-time substitute and, after finding himself in the area, he saw his initial strike kept out well before smashing in the rebound from the angle as the Ibrox faithful saw a sixth goal on the day. Rangers’ First Team Coach Roy Makaay will also join the occasion by playing for the World Legends team and sampling a taste of what’s sure to be a sell-out Ibrox as a player.

World football icon Luís Figo will captain a phenomenal array of talent at Ibrox for an unforgettable game against a Rangers Legends team on Saturday, March 26 at 3pm, before a special dinner takes place on the evening of March 26. Rangers have enjoyed the services of numerous legendary goalkeepers over the years but no shot-stopper can overshadow ‘The Goalie’, Andy Goram. He featured 260 times for the Gers from 1991 to 1998 and touched five league titles, three Scottish Cups and two League Cups. A team of club legends took on a Rest of the World select and served up a feast of football in the Glasgow sunshine. Greig established himself firmly as a Rangers legend during a storied spell at Ibrox from 1961 to 1978. The defender graduated from Rangers’ academy and helped the Glasgow giants go on to lift several trophies. He would eventually retire as a five-time Scottish top-flight winner. As part of the match, Rangers will proudly make a donation to the Luís Figo Foundation, which was established in 2003 to support education, health and sports for children and young people across the world.Jermaine Defoe in particular has lost none of his striker’s instinct, albeit he’s only recently retired, as he scored a double and Kris Boyd was also on the scoresheet for a team of Rangers Legends. Even after the Three Lions had won the 1966 World Cup, Baxter’s confidence on the ball was as clear as day when the Tartan Army met the global champions in 1967. He took his country to another win over the Auld Enemy and juggled the ball whilst his teammates found space.

Among the array of Rangers legends, there is a definite place in Ibrox history for former Gers captain Barry Ferguson. The midfielder skippered the ship from 2000 to 2003 and again from 2005 to 2009. He also lifted a huge 16 major titles through the midfielder’s spells in Glasgow. Figo's countryman Nuno Gomes then flipped the scoreline on its head when he beat Neil Alexander in the home goal with an excellent.

Key Events

Davie Cooper was an immensely elegant winger who thrilled Rangers supporters for 12 years with his creativity. The forward even dazzled his opponents as Dutch hero Ruud Gullit named Cooper in his ‘Perfect XI’ in 2007. They had met as Rangers and Feyenoord played a friendly. Alfredo Morelos Rangers striker fight with Antonio Colak questioned as ex Ibrox star believes he 'threw toys out pram' His 15 years at Ibrox further returned a staggering 20 major honours with 10 top-flight titles. McCoist helped to make Rangers the all-conquering force in Scotland from the mid-1980s to the late-1990s. His haul of winners’ medals featured nine League Cups and a Scottish Cup. Rangers will be captained by Light Blue hero Barry Ferguson and joined by other fan favourites including 55 league title winning Jermain Defoe, Saša Papac, Kris Boyd and Michael Mols.

As part of the weekend’s activities, we also look forward to supporting the Rangers Charity Foundation and the 150th Anniversary Appeal. But these matches are a reminder that the talent these players were blessed with can still come to the fore when the opportunity arises. There were still moments for the class to shine. Okay, they might have lost a yard of pace - they’re not quite at the walking football stage yet - and gained a few inches around the waistline but plenty showed they still have the quality.

The squads

It was a great day for the fans, charity game, and an amazing turnout. I really enjoyed it. It meant a lot to play in front of the fans again because to be totally honest I didn’t get the chance to say goodbye when I left. The term ‘legend’ is often overused in the game today and that was perhaps the case, with all due respect, for some of those in both sides but the Rangers team – skippered by a true great in Barry Ferguson – still had multiple medals on their respective records.

But who is taking part this time around? Record Sport has all the confirmed names so far. Rangers XI Injuries and poor form would blight his final days in Glasgow as they had in Rome. But the larger-than-life character announced himself as a future Rangers legend in the only suitable way by ending a lung-busting run from his own box to meet McCoist’s cross and beat Celtic.

There would have been several thousands in the stands who were not even born when those on the park were in their pomp at Ibrox. This was still a day for supporters young and old to enjoy, however, as some of the greats of yesteryear pulled on their boots once again.
