William Pullar Sandy Jardine is an Ibrox icon. Respected and revered
throughout the football world and beyond, he will forever be a club
legend.
Sandy was the consummate professional. His silky skills, speed and
ability to read the game were combined with a sense of fair play that
made him truly world class. He was soon an integral part of the
Rangers team and became a club legend when the Barcelona Bears won the
European Cup Winners Cup in 1972. He also played in two dramatic World
Cups and won 39 caps for Scotland. Later, Edinburgh-born Sandy
fulfilled another personal dream when he signed for Hearts and his
impact at Tynecastle was immense.
Then, in 2012, the financial meltdown at Rangers brought Sandy back
into the limelight. In those troubled times, nobody did more than
Sandy Jardine to galvanise the club and its supporters, and he
famously led 8,000 fans to Hampden to protest against sanctions
imposed by the SFA. But in late 2012, Sandy announced that he was
battling cancer, a fight he would bravely lose in April 2014.
SANDY The Authorised Biography of Sandy Jardine is the definitive
story of one of football s true legends and a fitting tribute to a man
who was loved and respected by family, friends and football fans
wherever he went.
