Summary

Once Graeme Souness walked into the Ibrox Blue Room, nothing would be the same again. What followed wasn’t just a successful season for long-suffering fans. Nor was it something inevitable. What followed was a revolution. This is a story about change. About how Scottish football’s biggest club was transformed and how it then transformed Scottish football.

About how old rules and traditions were ripped up, no matter the emotional cost. It is not simply a story about goals, saves and transfers. It is one formed by a time of great political and social modernisation which also saw a shift in how ordinary fans consumed the game and found their own voice. This was the most successful and exciting era in Rangers history. One where fans felt that anyone could be signed and everything could be won.

The sky was the limit! Or rather, Sky was. Amid all the glory, there was tension. Did Rangers drive change or were they were shaped by it? Why did their modernisation stop just as it exploded elsewhere? One thing is clear: the revolution that was born in 1986 was over by 1992. Here is how it happened.

Excellent history of Rangers most successful period in Scotland

I was born in 92 so I don't have many memories of Rangers most successful years. I knew all the names but didn't know the stories, the results, the off field drama, the struggles and the victories. This book is very well put together and narrated by the author from a wide variety of accounts, biographies, news articles and many more sources to give a great account of the time and all the main players, managers and board members involved, covering the good times and the bad. Highly recommended to anyone who, like me wants to learn about the 90s at Rangers which changed everything or for older fans to reminisce about bygone club hero's.

Into the Nitty Gritty of Rangers in late 80s/early 90s

Being just a bit too young to remember this part of Rangers history it was great to listen to everything that went on during the period.

Usual class from Mr Dulcet Tones

Fascinating look back at an era of Rangers football that I was too young for. But I learned things.
