About John Greig Birthplace : Scotland Height : 5ft 11 Weight : 12st 0 Position : Forward
Greig was voted the best ever Rangers player by the fans in March 1999. He truly deserved this, having been a colossus for both club and country. He lead Rangers to their first ever European trophy and helped win the Treble 3 times. On the way he appeared in 857 matches, scoring 120 goals despite being a defender and midfielder. He was twice Scottish player of the year and was awarded an MBE in 1977 for his services to football. Funnily enough, he did not want to join Rangers, and did so only after his father convinced him it was the right thing to do. It was the beginning of a career that lasted through till 1983 - he stopped playing in '76 and carried on as a manager. He then left but returned in 1990 to work as a PR officer.
