In 1959, the scroll crest was replaced with the lion rampant club crest, featuring a lion rampant, an old-style football, and the club's shortened motto, Ready. The team name, Rangers Football Club, surrounded this crest.
We kicked-off the project by restoring precision to the Club's main 'Ready' crest. We redrew the Lion Rampant in his existing position to support Rangers' 'Ready' motto, yet with heightened artistic precision & detail to present a far more fierce & relentless quality.
As the goal song for the New York Rangers, a portion of "Slapshot" typically thirty-five to forty seconds in length plays following the goal horn every time Rangers score a goal at home.

Some say it comes from the Bible — Psalm 95:7, which talks about “we are the people of His pasture,” linking to the club's historic Protestant identity. Others say it came from Northern Irish loyalist communities, where the slogan was already widely used before making its way into the Rangers support.
Rangers have historically embodied a stark Protestant, Unionist and Monarchist identity, deeply intertwined with British Loyalism in Scotland and Northern Ireland.
As the calendar turned to December, the Hadfield-Ratelle-Gilbert line had a new nickname – the “Goal-A-Game Line” (or “G-A-G Line”). The trio became the first linemates in NHL history to all score 40 or more goals in the same season, and their new nickname stuck from that point on.
The United States Army Rangers' 75th Ranger Regiment's motto is Sua Sponte, referring to the Rangers' ability to accomplish tasks with little to no prompting and to recognize that a Ranger volunteers three times: for the U.S. Army, Airborne School, and service in the 75th Ranger Regiment.

The most famous movie quote, according to the American Film Institute (AFI) list, is "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn" from Gone with the Wind (1939), spoken by Clark Gable's Rhett Butler.

No, number 69 is not officially banned in the NHL, but it's unofficially discouraged due to its sexual connotations, leading to only two players ever wearing it (Mel Angelstad and Andrew Desjardins) before they changed numbers, with GMs often steering players away from it as an unspoken rule. While no formal ban exists like for Wayne Gretzky's 99, teams and the league prefer players avoid the number to prevent jokes and distractions, making it effectively unavailable for most.

Robbie Williams
The Valiants named him Club President in 2024, perhaps to finally put to bed rumours of a takeover bid from the uber-rich entertainer. Yet in 1994, it was revealed where his heart lies north of the border, Williams adorning a Rangers jersey as he left Ibrox following an Old Firm derby.
The Tim Malloys were an Irish Catholic street gang operating in Glasgow in the early 1900s. So a “Tim” is the generic nickname for a Catholic in Scotland. The two characters in the play, then, are a 'Billy' and a 'Tim'
