IT is a day that those who were there will never forget, yet one that those who weren't will always remember. On January 2, 1971, 66 Rangers fans were killed in the Ibrox Disaster. Now, 50 years on, it is time to commemorate Absent Friends once again. Over four days next week, these pages will recall stories from those that survived and pay tribute to those that died. Reliving the tale will be painful and emotional for many, but it will perhaps offer insight and understanding to a generation of supporters who simply don't know enough about the darkest day in Scottish football history.
