Overview

[edit]

Rangers played a total of 55 competitive matches during the 1991–92 season. The team finished first in theScottish Premier Division and collected the fourth of their nine league titles after winning 33 of their 44 league games.

Rangers won the league by 9 points, the title being won at Ibrox againstSt Mirren with a 4–0 victory in April.

Transfer activity was heavily influenced by restrictions imposed by UEFA in European competitions. Match squads could only include a maximum of three foreign nationals, and as a result English players at Ibrox were considered "foreigners". The most significant move was the sale of England international goalkeeperChris Woods toSheffield Wednesday He was replaced by Scotland international goalkeeperAndy Goram fromHibernian.

In the cup competitions, they were knocked out of theScottish League Cup at the semi-final stage, losing 1–0 to Hibernian. Rangers won theScottish Cup for the first time since 1981, defeatingAirdrieonians 2–1 after a 1–0 win overCeltic in the semi-finals.

In Europe they were knocked out the European Cup in the first round by Czechoslovak sideSparta Prague. They lost on away goals rule after tying the match 2–2 on aggregate.

Ally McCoist was awarded his firstEuropean Golden Boot for finishing as the top goal scorer across all European leagues with 34 goals. The McCoist / Hateley strike partnership yielded an impressive 62 goals during the season.
