Don't remember much about him other than that celebration.
Perfectly put, nothing to add.Can’t mind the fee but he was 6/10 at best. Looked better with United than ourselves which is not uncommon.
Playing alsongside Gough will make most defenders look ordinary.
He never let us down ? Don’t know if you remember the scum reserve game at Ibrox when we had 30k at it. Him and two other players were ripped to shreads by Walter after the game and told they wouldn’t play for Rangers again. The three of them left at the end of that season. Patric was the only one who got one more game near the end of the season as Walter was forced to play him due to injuries.
Started the 8iar season with the 3 centre backs being McLaren,Gough,Petric.He lost his place to John Brown towards the end of the season.

Funnily enough I was listening to the podcast during the week and they were talking about Petric and the gangrene arm in the 3-1 Gazza hat tick time hop pod.TBF it was due to injury. He had an infected elbow after Goram's teeth ended up embedded in it during the semi final with the Tims.
Great post and the word 'languid' is a perfect description of the player.Can't remember, I think we got him on a Bosman, but don't quote me.
Thought he was a top class find and an absolute stand out at Tannadice and wanted him at Ibrox.
But his languid, sometimes, too easy-oasy style never really caught on.
In summary, I don't think he was the type of player who could really handle the pressure cooker that was Rangers and the demands required.
Who were the other 2 mate?
I'm guessing Wright & Bollan then...Im actually surprised Bollan made it to the 10IAR season with us!Teams that day
Us : Niemi - Wright, Bollan, Petric, Vidmar - Gattuso, Durrant, B Ferguson, McCall, Albertz - Johansson
Them : McCondichie - McDonald, Vaugh, Convery, Morrison - Lyttle, Smith, McBride, Crossley - Burchill, Anthony.
Tims ended up with 9 men. One sent off in the first half, the other with about 20 minutes left.
It's criminal we drew that game 1-1.

Came on to say the only thing he was famous for was getting spat at by Fergie at Ibrox.Sure when playing for utd that he had a run in with Ian Fergudon, iirc he spat at Ferguson who threatened to break him in two, surprised we actually signed him
Thanks for the correction, it was indeed Fergie who spat at him
