EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, Rangers Football Club's legendary duo, Walter Smith and Ally McCoist, are seen deep in conversation before the start of a pre-season friendly against Elgin City in a previous season. The image captures the intensity and focus of the pair as they prepare for the upcoming campaign. Smith, the esteemed chairman of Rangers at the time, wears a serious expression, his eyes fixed on McCoist, who stands beside him with a determined look on his face. McCoist, the manager, is dressed in his team tracksuit, his arms folded across his chest as he listens intently to Smith's words. The backdrop of the empty football pitch, with the Elgin City goalposts visible in the distance, adds to the sense of anticipation and excitement. The photograph brings back memories of pre-season fixtures, a time when fans and players alike looked forward to the start of the new football season. The 1-0 victory over Elgin City, a lower league team, may not have been a significant result in the grand scheme of things, but it marked the beginning of another chapter in Rangers' storied history. Taken by acclaimed Scottish football photographer Kirk O'Rourke, this image is a testament to the enduring bond between Smith and McCoist, two of the most iconic figures in Rangers Football Club's history. It is a reminder of the passion, dedication, and hard work that goes into preparing for a new season, and the importance of strong leadership in achieving success on the pitch.
