Andy Goram was a Rangers 'genius' as Bomber Brown pays Ibrox hero the ultimate tribute

John Brown led the tributes to the late Andy Goram, naming his former Rangers teammate as simply the best the country will ever produce.

Devastated Ibrox icon ‘Bomber’ said he believed Goram at his peak was one of the top goalkeepers in the world. Goram passed away at the age of 58 yesterday morning following a short battle with oesophageal cancer. Brown was by the Scottish football legend’s bedside at the St Andrew’s Hospice in Airdrie. ‘Bomber’ said: “ Andy Goram was just a genius. He was a master of the technical and positional side of goalkeeping. That certainly made up for his relative lack of height. In my eyes he will go down as the greatest Rangers and Scotland goalkeeper of all time. People will say I’m biased, perhaps. But what he achieved in the game far surpasses anyone else and his collection of world class saves were unbeatable.
