EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant moment captured during the Scottish Premiership match between Rangers and Aberdeen at Ibrox Stadium, Rangers Manager Steven Gerrard and his backroom staff, including Assistant Manager Gary McAllister, pay a heartfelt tribute to a footballing legend - Billy McNeil. The former Celtic captain, who led the Hoops to an unprecedented nine-in-a-row league titles in the 1960s and 1970s, was in attendance at the game to celebrate his 85th birthday. As a mark of respect and admiration, the Rangers management team led the crowd in applauding the iconic figure, who has left an indelible mark on Scottish football. McNeil, who won the Scottish Cup with Rangers in 1963, was visibly moved by the gesture, raising his hand in acknowledgement as the Ibrox faithful joined in the tribute. The scene encapsulates the spirit of football, showcasing the mutual respect and admiration that exists between the two historic rivals. The image, taken by Kirk O'Rourke, perfectly encapsulates the moment, with the warm glow of the stadium lights illuminating the faces of those paying tribute, creating a powerful and evocative image. The presence of the trophies from Rangers' Scottish Cup victory in 2003 in the background serves as a reminder of the rich history and tradition of both clubs. This moment is a testament to the enduring passion and love for the game that unites fans and players alike, transcending the boundaries of rivalry and bringing people together in celebration of the past and the present.
