It's an dream of every youngster who is kicking a ball about on the street to one day play for their favourite team.
You might have pretended to be your favourite player, copied a celebration or a heroic save, but that's as close as most of us will get to playing for the team we support.
These Rangers players were able to achieve their dream and pull on that famous shirt in front of the Ibrox faithful leading the club to trophies and titles - with some on the brink of a title dream this season.
Some have come through the academy, and some took a long road to get into the first-team picture.
Record Sport takes a look at some of the fans that got to live their dream.
Andy Halliday
Andy Halliday was a Rangers season ticket holder for 16 years and grew up on the Copland Road. After being released from the youth team in 2006 at the age of 15, he would earn a return to Ibrox in 2015, helping the club return to the Premiership, before exiting last summer for Hearts. He's also been a regular on the punditry circuit this season and his love for Rangers still cuts through despite being signed up at the Jambos.
Barry Ferguson
It's hardly surprising that Barry would go on to be a stand-out for Rangers, with older brother Derek also growing up a supporter who would go on to play for the club. Making his breakthrough during the end of the Walter Smith era in 1997, he would become a mainstay under Dick Advocaat and going on to captain the club. He would leave to go to test himself in the English Premier League in 2003 with Blackburn before returning years later to play a key role in the run to the UEFA Cup Final in 2008. Now boss at Kelty Hearts, Ferguson writes a weekly Record Sport column which almost always tackles the issue of the day at his boyhood heroes.
Ally McCoist
A lifelong Rangers fan who attended his first Old Firm derby as a 10-year-old, McCoist would make his breakthrough at St Johnstone before a down south to Sunderland. He would find his way to Ibrox in 1983 and would earn a glittering career as he earned the 'Super Ally' moniker as he played a key role in the nine-in-a-row run. After retirement, he would take up a role in the Ibrox dugout as assistant to Walter Smith in 2007 before taking on the top job in 2011 in the SPL, and starting the climb from League Two after the 2012 demotion. Like plenty of others, he's never shy of a word or two on the club he loves during regular punditry slots on BT Sport and talkSPORT radio.
Davie Cooper
As a youngster Davie Cooper would be in the stands in Govan with his dad and brother, and would be given the dream chance to pull on the shirt after impressing for Clydebank. As a 21-year-old he would make the move to Rangers and go on to earn legendary status in the late seventies and throughout the eighties. In 1987 he helped the club he loved to claim their first top flight trophy for nine years.
Alan Hutton
Boyhood Rangers fan Hutton climbed through the academy ranks at Auchenhowie before being handed his first-team opportunity in 2002. He would battle with Fernando Ricksen for the right-back slot before making the position his own in 2005. He would then go on to test himself down south a £9million move to Tottenham, before a decade spent at the likes of Aston Villa, Mallorca and Bolton. Before his retirement, Hutton had one last run out at Ibrox for Rangers' Legends against Liverpool. After the game he took to Instagram, adding: "what a day, felt at home."
Ryan Jack
Despite spending 17 years at Aberdeen on his way to become captain at the Dons, Jack jumped at the chance to make the move to the club he supported as a kid back in 2017 during the Pedro Caixinha era. Jack has now become a vital player for both club and country under Steven Gerrard's tutelage. He has been the midfield anchor that has helped Rangers climb 21-points clear at the top of the table this term.
Scott Arfield
Arfield took the decision to return to Scotland back in 2018 after eight years south of the border with Huddersfield and Burnley. The 32-year-old is another who is on the brink of securing a childhood dream as Rangers edge closer to their first top flight title in nine years. He's become a firm fans' favourite and, prior to injury, forced his way into Gerrard's side to become a key part of the club's push towards the league crown. Clearly keen to give something back to the support, Arfield has been known to engage with fans on social media, sending a heartwarming video message to a young supporter earlier this season.
