EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, Rangers captain James Tavernier is seen making his way through the dimly lit Ibrox Stadium tunnel, the weight of history pressing upon his shoulders. The image, captured during a Betfred Cup tie against Ayr United in 2021, resonates deeply with the rich and storied past of the Glasgow football club. The scene is reminiscent of a pivotal moment in Rangers' history, harkening back to the Scottish Cup glory days of 2003. In that fateful year, Tavernier's predecessors, including the legendary Walter Smith, led the team to a hard-fought victory against Celtic in the Scottish Cup Final. The triumph marked the end of a seven-year drought for the club and rekindled the passion and pride of the Rangers faithful. As Tavernier moves forward, the ghosts of those triumphant moments seem to swirl around him, providing a sense of inspiration and determination. The trophies from that glorious 2003 season, now proudly displayed in the Rangers Museum, loom large in the background, a testament to the team's unwavering spirit and resilience. The photograph by Kirk O'Rourke captures the essence of the game, the tension and anticipation that comes with every match, and the unyielding hope that comes with every new season. Tavernier's determined expression and focused gaze speak volumes about his commitment to the team and the legacy of Rangers Football Club. As the captain leads his team onto the hallowed Ibrox pitch, the echoes of the past merge with the present, fueling the fire that drives the Rangers onward in their quest for more glory. This image serves as a reminder of the club's storied history and the indomitable spirit that continues to drive it forward.
