Rangers F.C. season 2001-02

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rangers won both the Scottish League Cup and Scottish Cup in 2001-02, while finishing second in the Scottish Premier League. The season started under the Management of Dutchman Dick Advocaat. By December, Rangers found themselves in position where League leaders Celtic were uncatchable. They also failed to qualify for the UEFA Champions League, losing 2-1 on aggregate to Turkish club Fenerbahçe.

Alex McLeish took over the reigns in December 2001, and despite exiting the UEFA Cup at the fourth round stage to Feyenoord, he steered them to success in both cup competitions.
