Terry Hurlock has admitted that he had never heard of Rangers ahead of joining the Souness Revolution in August 1990.

The midfielder was born in Hackney in 1958, before the age of 10 he was watching Jimmy Johnstone destroy Inter Milan as Celtic were crowned champions of Europe.

Repeating that achievement was the goal of Dave Murray and Souness but they never got within a mile of it despite English clubs being banned from Europe for much of their time at Ibrox.

Hurlock had kicked around at Reading, Brentford and Milllwall before his move to Ibrox where Souness required an additional hammer-thrower in his midfield.

With Souness deserting Rangers in April 1991 Hurlock was back down the road a few months later to join Southampton.

On this day in 1991 Hurlock, Mark Hateley and Mark Walters were sent off in the St Patrick’s Day massacre.
