Same Old Stories about Gordon Ramsay’s (lack of) Football Career
So did Gordon Ramsay ever play for Rangers? – Reuters UK – UK
LONDON (Reuters) – Chef Gordon Ramsay has admitted there may have been “inaccuracies” in accounts of his football-playing past after a weekend newspaper report said he had lied about appearing for Rangers.
The News of the World said Ramsay, 42, never actually signed for the Glasgow club and questioned whether he had ever played in the first team.
The article quoted Ramsay — one of the world’s most famous chefs who runs a string of acclaimed restaurants and appears on reality television cooking shows — as telling a radio show in 2002 that he played three first-team games.

Knox told a Sunday newspaper: “The first time I ever saw Gordon Ramsay was in 1996 when he launched his first book. But he didn’t know me from Adam because we’ve never met.”
The only evidence of Ramsay’s Rangers career is a photo in his book of him in a Rangers squad which also included Rangers legend Ally McCoist.
However Allan Cairns, the photographer who took the picture in September 1985, said the photo was not one of Rangers first team but a side picked to play a testimonial match.
