It was once the house of the mighty, all powerful local and European mega-team, that attracted stars from all over the continent. During home matches, the house was packed with over 50,000 wild fans, turning it into a fortress. But the mighty has fallen, and fallen deep and hard. But now they are back. Not entirely to the place they once occupied, but the necessary steps are taken to make sure it will happen soon enough.

The appointment of ex-Liverpool and England great Steven Gerrard as manager prior to the 2017-18 season shown the club won’t stop until he reaches his position atop the Scottish Premier League’ even though result from previous season shows there is still a long way to go.

Rangers Football Club was established in 1872 by four young men in Glasgow, who shared a dream of starting a football club no money, no business plan, no idea really where and how to do it, just a dream. Soon enough, they had a name for the team – Rangers, which they borrowed from a rugby team.

In 1888, Rangers first met Celtic and one of the oldest, fiercest rivalries was born – the derby of Glasgow, forever know as the Old Firm. 1894 saw first trophy – the Scottish Cup, after a 3-1 win Over Celtic. In 1890-91, rangers won their first championship. Tenths more were to come as the 20th century rolled on.

In 1971-72, under legendary manager Jock Stein, Rangers put its mark over Europe, after defeating Dynamo Moscow 3-2 and winning UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup.

In 1998 Dutch Dick Advocaat became the first non-Scot to manage Rangers in over one hundred years of football. He lasted three seasons and success continued. Behind the scenes, the club has already accumulated large debt, but success was intoxicating and nobody paid much attention.

In 2003, debt has reached almost 100 million dollars, as yearly losses came into tenths of millions of dollars. Still, the team rolled on, competed in Europe and continued collecting Scottish trophies.

Rangers won three Scottish Premier League titles in a row (2008-09, 2009-10, 2010-11) and finished second behind arch-rivals Celtic in 2011-12) before everything finally came crushing down. After failing to reach an agreement with creditors, among them the tax authorities, Rangers went into liquidation and was placed in Scotland’s 3rd division.

It was a sad ending to a marvelous story, but maybe one that had to occur in order for the club to cure itself and become financially stable again. It took Rangers four year to return to the Scottish Premier League. It is not yet back to its normal self, and losses to Celtic still occur on a regular basis, but Ibrox is buzzing again.

And Steven Gerrard is maybe the stepping stone to become the Rangers of old again.

Rangers play their home matches in marvelous, 50,817-seat Ibrox Stadium.
