Ham Report post Posted July 28 Welcome. Been to Ibrox many times over the years. I remember am amazing game years ago in the Champions League versus a very very strong Parma side. What an atmosphere. Also went to the Rangers v Chelsea pre season friendly a few years ago. Had a great weekend, what I can remember if it. Here's to better times for Rangers.

NoblyBobly Report post Posted August 4 There's obviously a connection between Chelsea and Rangers but can someone tell me where it stems from? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All I can think of is that we , way back in the fifties played in the same strip as them and IIRC transferred a load of players from them and Scotland as a whole just previous to us winning our first league winners trophy. Maybe its that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe its that? Maybe. I know that we have always had strong scottish connections (the mears family were scottish or scots linked I think) and we have always bought a lot of scottish players from various clubs but the Rangers thing alludes me.

Jasonb Report post Posted August 6 I think it is more political in that Rangers tended to be mostly Prots and against the IRA and Chelsea were mainly patriotic and also against the IRA due to Irish attacks on the mainland. So when a lot of Scots came down South for work the Prots headed for Chelsea. And of course we both played in blue that might have helped too. Just a thought.
