♂ Men'sVenue
Rangers Football Club was formed in 1872, playing their initial games on Glasgow Green until 1890 when they moved to the first Ibrox Stadium. They moved to Ibrox Park in 1899 but the stadium suffered a bad disaster (as opposed to a good one) in 1902 when one of the wooden terraces collapsed. They were replaced with earthen based terraces instead, offering a bigger degree of safety at the ground. Sadly, Ibrox suffered another disaster in 1971 when there was a crush in the crowd at an Old Firm game and 66 people died and more than 200 others were injured. It occurred in one of the stairwells and the stadium’s owners were ruled to be at fault for at least one of the deaths, with families of the other victims then suing for damages. The ground was largely rebuilt over the following years, with the name being changed to Ibrox Stadium in 1997.
