SPORT 'Rangers fans would have killed me for being Catholic': Gers legend Don Kitchenbrand speaks out on Ibrox secret Nicknamed 'the Rhino', the South African striker, now 83 and living in a suburb of Johannesburg, has revealed he kept quiet about his religion because of Rangers' infamous signing policy of that era.

The South African striker signed for Rangers in 1955 and scored an impressive 24 goals in 25 league games as the Ibrox side romped to the Scottish League title, earning him 'The Rhino' nickname. After a few years in Glasgow, Kitchenbrand was sold to Sunderland for a then-huge fee of £8,000 and also bagged plenty of goals in England. Now 83 and living in a suburb of Johannesburg in his native South Africa, Kitchenbrand has revealed he kept quiet about his Catholic religion because of Rangers' infamous signing policy of that era. Kitchenbrand said: "I played there for four years and didn’t say a word about it. "They probably would have killed me." Rangers reportedly had an unwritten rule in their signing policy from the 1920s until 1989 where they would not sign Catholic players, although that has subsequently been the the subject of fierce debate. READ MORE Rangers have been made to look a nasty club with the antics of Dave King and the board - Hotline John Spencer signed for the Ibrox club as a 12-year-old Catholic schoolboy was a fringe player at the club until the policy was smashed once and for all by the headline-grabbing capture of former Celtic hero Mo Johnston by Graeme Souness . And Kitchenbrand, in an interview with a local South African newspaper, revealed how he got his own back on Scottish fans, after racist abuse.

"There was some backlash from the Queen of the South supporters with some sending me notes to ‘go back to your jungle country and eat your dried meat.' "I replied by scoring five goals past them that day." ADVERTISEMENT Kitchenbrand even returned to Scotland in the early 1960 for a brief spell with Forfar Athletic before returning to his South African homeland.

Are you surprised?

No way, the guy is a joke.

What a fucking mess.

Cheers Frankie.

https://footballtaxhavens.wordpress.com/2017/02/09/district-valuer-condemns-glasgow-city-council-concessions-with-celtic-in-february-2007/ Another blog on the land deals (remember this is only for the land around Celtic Park, there are separate questionable deals for the training ground). This must surely come to light eventually. It may make for interesting times when GCC switches power if any digging is done to incriminate the precious regime. Could be a big political goal scored.

Is it the BBC that usually films / broadcasts the draw?

A bit random, but what does "IIRC" mean? I've seen it posted a few times without a clue!

Wow, the prize money in Scotland is hilariously shite.

I think this has been taken a bit far. Reports I've heard was that it was a single idiot mouthing off. Why does anyone on here believe anything the papers say? From good sources it was far from a "hate mob". This is probably another story that if pushed would result in a tiny retraction on page 30.

Assuming we win that case (we weren't guilty when we got out under), can it safely be said that we were put into administration when we were actually in the black overall?

4-0 Gers, McKay.

I don't know munch about finances but how much were Rangers put into administration for owing? Os the fact that BDO are trying to reclaim £28m showing that the old mob stripped £28m out of the company? If so, was that much more than what we actually owed, hence, did we actually have to go into administration at all?

I take it out apology on the O'Halloran penalty is in the post?

Part of me thinks this is a good thing.

I wouldn't say that was a clean through on the keeper chance.

I can't remember the last time we had a 1 on 1 with the other teams keeper.

They were going mad at the linesman. I was almost in line with it at the match.

Just sent the highlights - their goal was offside. Not a single mention of this, multiple replays, castigating of linesmen etc.. Just ignored.

That result never happened. This is the greatest Celtic side in decades due to the run they are having...

I thought Toral looked like he was hiding in groups of players far too often. He wasn't the only one but the worst for me.

The BBC must be seriously at it with those stats. Are they for real?!

Not that I'm condoning it but when you have players calling losses "speed bumps" they don't know what it means to play for Rangers. Maybe they need told that a draw at home agaisbt the bottom team is unacceptable and not a "speed bump".

That feeling was right. Just heading back from another shambles. We never really threatened as usual. I have never seen so many corners without any threat. Total was an empty jersey. Not seen it back but their goal looked offside?

I have a horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach about today's game.
