ig Tam signed for Rangers in October 1972 and over the next decade he would become a stalwart within the team, notably forming an excellent central defensive partnership with Colin Jackson.
A major figure within Jock Wallace’s treble winning sides of 1976 and 1978, Tam would make 326 competitive first team appearances for Rangers, scoring 6 goals.
His goal in the Centenary Scottish Cup Final win over Celtic (his very first for the Club) remains one of the most iconic images in the history of Rangers and it was one that the fans never tired of speaking to him about. Always the absolute gentleman, Tam was more than happy to indulge.
3 League Championships, 4 Scottish Cups and 2 League Cups were won during his time with Rangers and after being forced to retire due to injury he was rewarded with a well deserved testimonial against Swansea City.
