The Restoration of Rangers Graves Project and Rangers Goalkeeper George Niven.

At the end of last year Rangers legend Colin Stein contacted us to say that a supporter David Walters had spoken to him at Ibrox about the final resting place of Rangers goalkeeper George Niven and gave me David’s contact details.

David informed us that he’d spoken to Mr Niven’s partner Ann who told him that George sadly was resting in an unmarked grave in Grantown-on-Spey. We immediately contacted the council then a local stonemason and we’re delighted to say that this has now been rectified. A memorial stone was placed yesterday Friday 21st March.

George Niven gave Rangers many years of wonderful service,this is today’s Rangers support saying thank you and giving him back some dignity and respect.
