Hero. A word used and abused in football, but for those who fought for
their country in Britain's armed forces during the brutal conflicts of
the twentieth century, there can be no better description. And over
the years, Rangers Football Club has produced its share of true
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 to 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 - their life and times in football, along with
the battles they fought, in a lasting tribute to a band of men who
represented Rangers with distinction.
