As in so many other areas Rangers have led the way in
Continental competition. The first Scottish club to reach a European final.
The first Scottish club to compete in the European Super Cup. The first
Scottish club to reach the knockout stages of the Champions League. And of
course the greatest achievement of them all: winning the European Cup
Winners Cup in 1972 after defeating more quality sides in one season than
any other Scottish club.
This compelling book tells the story of the club's fifty years in Europe
from the early days of European competition in 1956 to the Champions League
of 2006. There is coverage of every game played by Rangers in that period
and as might be expected the drama is unrelenting as Rangers go head to
head with some of the biggest names in football.
There are valuable insights from many Rangers legends, who were interviewed
specially for this book: Harold Davis, Eric Caldow, Kai Johansen, Sandy
Jardine, Alex MacDonald, Dave McPherson, Robert Prytz, Bobby Russell.
Then there are the loyal Rangers fans. They followed on from Belgrade to
Bruges, Faroes to Florence, Kiev to Katowice, Valetta to Vladikavkaz and
Zabrze to Zizkov. Their stories are often hair-raising, invariably
hilarious, and include encounters with working girls in Spain, an impromptu
Orange Walk in Amsterdam, a battle in Newcastle and attacks by IRA
sympathisers in Dublin. There is also the moving story of how thousands of
Rangers fans enchanted the people of Wolverhampton with their singing and
their reverence for the Union Jack.
