I'm a Rangers title-winner but when my son made history it was best night of my life – even though I cried like a BABY

The former Rangers midfielder was in the Olympic Stadium in Rome to see Bologna end a 51-year trophy drought by beating Inter Milan 1-0 on 14 May.

"When I was going to the game in Rome, if I'm being honest I thought Inter Milan would win. "I looked at Inter and they had good players, and I thought the class players always turn up in big moments. "But what Bologna have is a real belief and togetherness and you saw that on the night. "I cried like a baby at the final whistle. "I got in a bit of a tiff with my older son Darren, because he was saying, 'It's in the bag'. "I'm not religious but I was looking up in the final few minutes. "When the final whistle went I burst out greetin' for five minutes. "It was the best footballing night of my life. "I won a few cups and league titles, but because his family and his pals were there - guys he'd been at Hamilton Grammar with - it was a special moment. Scot in Serie A Lewis Ferguson shows latest Italian talent with fluent interview "We got on the pitch at the end, which felt surreal. "I'm not a cuddler, I'm more a high-five type, but I gave him a hug and I wouldn't let him go. "He was like, 'C'mon da!' "It meant so much because of what he'd gone through with his injury. "But his mental attitude is so strong, he's a lot tougher than I ever was. "After the first five or six games he missed he was his own self - he was actually reassuring me that everything would be OK, that he was going to meet it head on. "So that made it even more special - it was a magical night. "When I go over to watch him I can go as a fan and enjoy myself." Ferguson revealed Bologna weren't the first Italian side to register an interest before Lewis' move in 2022. He said: "Cagliari and Lecce came in and there was a bit of interest in England as well, all before Bologna. "But when Bologna came in he told his agent to pursue that one. "He'd spoken to Aaron Hickey about Bologna and he'd raved about everything about the club and city, especially the food. 4 "Lewis likes his food so that was a factor in his decision. "Having been across, the restaurants are sensational." Former Ibrox midfielder Ferguson says Russell Martin will have to prove fans wrong as Rangers manager. Ferguson said the new Gers boss - who'll meet his squad for pre-season training tomorrow - has to focus on winning games rather than the way they do it. He said: "The word 'underwhelming' has been used a lot about the appointment. "He wouldn't have been the first choice for a lot of fans - but now he's in, we back him. "I wish him all the best. "I actually like what he's saying because throughout his career he's had to prove people wrong and he's going to have to prove a vast majority of the support wrong now. "You maybe hear about the style of football he likes to play, but for me, talking from a Rangers perspective, I want winning football. "I don't mind if we win a game 1-0 or 6-0, I just want to win games of football. "But the demands at a club like Rangers or Celtic, are that you win and win with style."

Wales enjoy 'unreal' send-off for Euro 2025

"The hard work starts now with a week in Portugal."Excitement ahead of Euro 2025 reached new heights as Wales set off from Cardiff Airport to Portugal on Sunday afternoon, but the message from captain Angharad James was simple.'Good luck Wales' and 'C'mon Cymru' (come on Wales) were among the messages plastered across cards and banners as fans got the chance to bid farewell to those who are set to embark on what they hope will be the summer of a lifetime.A steel band played in front of the terminal entrance as players, along with head coach Rhian Wilkinson, posed for photographs with supporters and signed the dream will have started to feel even more real, with Wales holding a week-long training camp in the Algarve in preparation for their tournament opener against Netherlands in Lucerne on 5 midfielder James feels Wales are fully deserving of their place on the grandest stage."This group of players deserve this. We work so hard," she added. Having announced her 23-player squad for the Euros from the summit of Yr Wyddfa, also known as Snowdon last week, Wilkinson was eager to follow in the footsteps of Craig Bellamy's men's side who also used the training facilities in the south of Portugal in preparation for their recent World Cup qualifiers with Liechtenstein and Canada-born manager, 43, has regularly stated her desire to see Wales enjoy themselves in Switzerland next month, while also wanting her side to compete with the was a message typified by Hannah Cain - scorer of the opener in Wales' crucial 2-1 victory over Republic of Ireland on 3 December, a result that earned Wilkinson's side their place at the upcoming tournament."It's unreal," the Leicester City forward said of the welcome at the airport."We didn't know this was all going to be here, it's amazing."But focusing on the task ahead, Cain said: "We just want to win as many games as possible and have the best time ever." At 38 years of age, Jess Fishlock is the most senior member of the travelling Wales Seattle Reign midfielder - whose tally of 162 caps and 47 goals for her country are records - is perhaps the most deserving of a place on the plane given her remarkable contributions in the Welsh jersey since making her senior debut against the Swiss in Fishlock paid a touching tribute to those who had made their way to Rhoose to deliver the perfect send off for the history-making Welsh squad."This is beautiful and it means so much to local clubs. It's everything we've ever wanted," she 23 squad players and boss Wilkinson posed together for one final photograph for the assembled media from the aeroplane's staircase prior to boarding the Boeing aircraft itself was given one last send off prior to leaving the Welsh tarmac as it rolled between two fire and rescue trucks spraying water to give a cannon salute - traditionally reserved for a plane's first is undoubtedly aware of the scale of the task that lies ahead for Wales - who face France on 9 July and England on 13 July after their opener against the the 31-year-old issued something of a warning to those who are underestimating Wilkinson's team."We're excited for the challenge. People think Wales will be easy, but we won't, we always give 100%," concluded the 132-cap international.
