Product Information
Hero is a word used and abused in football, but one that can be applied to a particular group of men without fear. For those who served with distinction in Britain's armed forces during the brutal conflicts of the 20th century there can be no better description and Rangers Football Club is an institution that has been honoured to play host to a succession of true war heroes. The club's traditional motto, Aye Ready, has applied on the pitch for well over a century but for a generation of Ibrox stars those words were carried onto the battlefields on foreign shores as they fought for their country. Some emerged to once again pull on their football boots, others were less fortunate and paid the ultimate price for their loyalty to the cause. All will forever be remembered as Rangers heroes. Aye Ready profiles the stories of a selection of the club's war veterans, the battles they fought in and their life and times in football in a lasting tribute to a band of men who represented Rangers with distinction.Product Identifiers
