Been thinking hard about this, and for me the "one" is some sort of amalgam of every classic Rangers 10, Rodney-Stan-Currie-Stainrod-Byrne-Taarabt-Eze - but the "2" is probably Ian Dawes (ask your dad, kids).
Week after week, season after season, Dawesie was there at left back, always solid but able to get forward too.
Played for years in the top flight but don't suppose he made enough to retire on when he hung his boots up. Cost us nothing either.
For me he stands for every loyal Rangers man who just got on with the job, you never had to worry.

Stan first but then its easier to break it into eras
70s - John Hollins 80s - Gary Waddock 90s - Macca pushed hard by Les, no Ray, no Sinton (FFS) 00s - Magic Hat 10s - Adel 20s - ask me again in 6 years but for now Im going with Eze

Dawes is a great shout. Loved him. So solid, but stylish as well.
"The opposite of love, after all, is not hate, but indifference."
For sheer class and possessing complete box of tricks and scorer of one of the greatest ever Rangers goals away at Leeds - Royston Wegerle - for me !!
My favourite was Wilkins and Les would be a joint choice with Wegerle for second but the audacity of some of the showboating by Roy was on a different level.
That early 90s team had all bases covered - quality throughout.
This season represents my 50th year of following the Rs so I always have to go back to that era to pick my favourite players even though there have been so many since. My 3 favourites were Stan, Gerry and the great Dave Thomas. Stan had to be number one and in the school playing ground š I remember occasionally reverting to one of the other two. If you put a gun to my head Iād probably go for DT. A fantastic crosser of the ball and that pass he played out to Stan at home to Sunderland (I think). My guess is that after his move to Everton he made a few goals for Bob Latchford too. All done without shin pads at a time when tackles used to fly in.
