Last month, John was one of 12 Dream Day nominees living with terminal or life-changing illnesses who were invited to the Training Centre where they had the chance to meet the Men’s First Team and Manager and enjoy an exclusive autograph session. This was followed by a special lunch at Ibrox and a stadium tour.
John said: "I’ve been like a big baby. I was so proud to be a Rangers fan. It’s once in a lifetime and I have loved every minute.”
