Footballers are sometimes criticised for being detached from the real world; of having a disconnect between themselves and the people who so revere them.
If you’d been at the Royal Hospital for Children, you would have soon been disabused of that notion.
Because on Monday afternoon Mark Warburton and his players gave up just some of their time to bring a little happiness into the lives of kids whose festive period unfortunately won’t resemble a scene from a Christmas card.
The smiles on the faces of the wee ones lit up as Rangers players such as Kenny Miller chatted and joked with the brave children.
The club handed over a £10,000 cheque from Rangers Charity Foundation, bags of goodies and a special laser pen for treating cancer.
