When I read “resplendent footballer” my first thought was a portly John Barnes, punditing while robed in what looked like a Dalmatian fake-fur coat. (I assume it was fake.)
The most regal Ranger I can think of is Akos. [Post edited 4 Sep 14:29]

I might be misremembering, but I thought he got some grief when he left. | | | |

He did, got grief when he came back with Wednesday. The success of his replacement, Sinclair, eased the resentment.
Clive Wilson and Sir Les also universally popular. [Post edited 4 Sep 20:20]

I reckon you're all playing on Easy Mode by picking Rangers players, so I'm racking my brains for someone who played against us that I didn't slag off for 90 minutes.
I genuinely admired Matt Le Tissier all his playing career, but subsequently he seems to have shown himself up as a bit of a knob. So I'm going for Liam Brady and hoping that Brian Mc isn't going to pop up and say that everyone in Ireland knows that he's never got a round in in his life.
But if it's Rangers, I'll have another vote for Glenn Roeder and throw in Alan Macca and Gary Waddock. | | | |

Trevor Brooking if we’re going old school.
Before my time, so one of you will probably tel me he kicks dogs. | | | |

Dwight York seemed to be popular and always smiling. Frank Worthington was 'cool' to my teenage eye.
I don't think players were publicly reviled as much back in the day, because (a) no social meeja and (B) they weren't making 300 grand a week. | | | |

You're safe with Brady, definitely.
Not adored in Ireland, because he doesn't have any kinks in his story - born into a great sporting family and all that - and was never a controversial pundit or journo, but hugely respected for his playing career and what he did later for Ireland and for Arsenal.
What most stands out for me and my mates about Brady was that he was only the second Irish player to move to Serie A, won two titles in two years with Juve, and in the very last game, despite knowing he was going to be bombed out for the incoming Platini, he stepped up to take the peno that won the title for Juve. And scored.
And never bad-mouthed anyone about it.
Legend. [Post edited 4 Sep 23:25]

I'm with you on Brooking.
Held his cool on and off the pitch in troubled times. | |
