Temple of Dreams – The changing face of Ibrox

As well as the many football triumphs, the stadium has witnessed dozens of other events over the years, including the famous annual Ibrox Sports meeting created by the legendary manager Bill Struth. On one spectacular afternoon, seven world records were broken in one race on the Ibrox cinder track. Ibrox, which holds the record attendance for a League match in Britain, would of course be nothing more than a pile of bricks and mortar without the fans who breathe life into it every other Saturday. Here, supporters recall their memories of the stadium, from starting bonfires on the vast terraces to keep warm in the depths of winter, to donning customised hard-hats as protection from flying beer bottles in the s, to the spectacular Champions League nights of the 21st century.

And of course the greatest achievement of them all: There are valuable insights from many Rangers legends, who were interviewed specially for this book: Then there are the loyal Rangers fans. 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. Duff uses all his journalistic skill to create a vivid insight into a half-century of European campaigns.

But it is much more than just a football book. This is a piece of social history and it charts with warmth and wit exactly how much the club means to the supporters who followed on, even to the far-flung outposts of the Continent.

Their loyalty and devotion to Rangers can never be questioned. A new book on Rangers recently hit the shelves. Rather than trying to look for positives and presenting every defeat as unlucky, the author takes a mature and detached view from events on and off the park that the book details. This is a book that has adopted a firm Rankean philosophy when presenting the past and the book is all the much more accessible and readable for it.
