I remember years ago when I was younger (roughly 10 I think), I was in the queue in Tesco with my mum getting food shopping and it was my birthday. My mum had told me to pick out a cake that she would get me. She worked hard and long hours but didn’t make much money. When she got to the till and ring up the cost it turns out she couldn’t afford it and she felt so embarrassed. A man a few isles across noticed this, came to the front of the queue and paid for EVERYTHING. That gentleman was Walter Smith. I’m not a Rangers man, but he is forever a legend to me. RIP Walter! 💚

He came in as Sir Alex’s number 2 in 2004, won the FA Cup and prepped us for the success we had there after! Never forgotten at United! RIP Walter! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

One of the good guys.
RIP Walter Smith, from a Celtic fan. 🙏💚💙

I'll always remember him carrying Tommy Burns coffin. I don't think a single fan in Scotland has a bad thing to say about him, even though he broke a few hearts along the way.

RIP Walter, thank you for making Rangers the club they are.
