Thanks for taking my call, Gordon.
How are yous all?
You good?
Yeah, good, thanks.
Good.
Good.
Yeah, my take on it is maybe similar to the English fans I've phoned in already.
I just think, I think you have to put it into context.
Now, I know, I think it's been said in the show quite a few times, not only by the pundits that are on, but also by some Rangers fans as well, saying that he's not been a successful Rangers captain because he's not won many trophies.
Now, I understand that to a certain extent, but to put that into context, he joined Rangers when we won the championship, right?
And also, he's probably been part of the initial few squads that he was a part of
probably the worst range of teams for a long, long time.
And the amount of turmoil that's grown at board level, amongst the fans, the players, the fact that we generally had a lack of quality in our squad.
So for people to say he can't be considered a great because he's not won many trophies, fair enough.
But at the end of the day, that's not his fault.
He's done what he's supposed to do, which is he's been a great leader on and off the pitch.
His numbers are staggering.
I think he's the highest goal-scoring British defender of all time, I think he is.
Also, some of his performances, I mean, I get it's over a long period of time, but, for example, Gordon, that run to the UEFA Cup final, right, he was the highest goal-scorer in that whole competition.
You know, he's up against some brilliant strikers, and he's outscored them, got us to a UEFA Cup final, led us out in a UEFA Cup final as a captain.
