On the positive side --- I think this is an excellent graph in the FT on the breakdown of taxation in the countries of the OECD.
Classic European tie. Two wonderful goals and iconic celebrations. The economy of touches in the second goal - lovely stuff. Rangers were the best team in Britain from about 1990 until...?
It’s 33 years since Rangers stunned Leeds at Elland Road. So much to see here: - Mark Hateley’s magnificent mullet - An all-time classic Rangers kit - Brilliant Brian Moore commentary - Big man, little man up top - A sensational diving header
