Iniesta – The Hairy Nicky Law!

Never ever let it be said that Rangers fans dont have a sense of humour. Surely  we all remember them laughing along with Charles Green in his Orange Top wearing share-purchase tout,I mean tour?

Ah, good times.

Well we are glad to report that the infamous Gers sense of humour hasnt abated despite the turmoil and anguish which all Rangers fans are suffering right now.

Well done lads we say, its very honourable and none have kept their sense of humour more than the Rangers Report website who, with a bright blue tongue firmly wedged in their red and white cheeks, have uttered this classic comparison today in a piece covering the potential sale of the Rangers midfielder Nicky Law: (Please brace yourselves – Ed)

Obviously, Law’s potential departure – Leeds United, Rotherham, Huddersfield & Sheffield Wednesday have been linked to the man formerly known as the ‘Bald Iniesta” – would further deteriorate the team’s depth

We will let that sink in.

Nicky Law!
