Andy Goram 'loved Rangers and being around fans' as ex-wife shares memories

Rangers legend Andy Goram 'loved Rangers and being around the supporters' and requested a blue coffin for his funeral, according to his ex-wife.

Miriam Wylie, who was married to 'The Goalie' from 2001 to 2004, has spoken out following his tragic passing. Around 10 weeks ago Goram was given a shock oesophageal cancer diagnosis and told he had just six months to live.

He shared his devastating news on 30 May but his condition worsened and he died aged on July 2, which would have been his and Miriam's 21st wedding anniversary. Miriam, a pub landlady, was with the Ibrox legend in his final days at St Andrew's Hospice in Airdrie, North Lanarkshire.
