Chris Burke watched the last one from the bench and reckons it would be great for Scottish football to have that again.
Chris Burke was among the stunned onlookers as the blades of glory turned in Rangers’ favour on Helicopter Sunday.
Philippe Clement’s modern-day Rangers will have to pull off a manoeuvre every bit as remarkable if they are to set up a last-day decider of their own this season. A first away win at Parkhead in three-and-a-half years this weekend is needed for starters. But when it comes to the Old Firm, Burke insists no-one should be surprised.
“Everyone at Celtic and Rangers have got ability, they can all turn a game at any moment. But I think the character, the personality, the charisma are important. When it comes to final day drama, few other Scottish seasons come to that 2005 epic. But Burke admits it was hardly a blockbuster clash against a Hibs side who knew they could lose and still qualify for Europe on goal difference, so long as they kept the score down.
“Even though I wasn’t on the pitch, I was still on the bench. You get to learn from the ones on the pitch and how they cope with the situation and how they celebrate. You can see the relief from them and how much it means when they actually get over the line. Burke spent eight years in the Rangers first team but that proved to be his only league winner’s medal. And the Killie youth coach, who also lifted the League Cup with Walter Smith’s side in 2008, admitted: “I would have loved to have won more trophies, to have played in more cup finals. At that time when I was playing for Rangers, Celtic were probably the driving force.
