HE was serenaded to the tune once reserved for a hero of old.
But Hamza Igamane is quickly showing he might just be the new talisman this Rangers side have been desperately searching for.
The young Moroccan still has a long way to go to match the achievements that earned Ally McCoist icon status at Ibrox. But it says everything about the hopes the travelling legions in Dingwall yesterday have for the 22-year-old that they decided to dust down the ditty that soundtracked so many of Super Ally's memorable moments in a blue jersey.
Igamane had the 3000 Gers supporters singing his name just six minutes in as he made it four goals in his last four games - and five in total this season. That was music to his ears - although you couldn't quite say the same for the rest of the repulsive songbook which soured the Sky airwaves.
But it's not just Igamane's individual exploits that are impressing.
It's the relationship he is building with Danilo, Ianis Hagi and Vaclav Cerny that has all of a sudden transformed a static and stale frontline into one brimming with movement and invention.
A team that had only netted three away Premiership goals before kick-off doubled that tally in one afternoon as Danilo and James Tavernier completed another comfortable win.
It was the first time Rangers had managed more than one goal on the road since the final league game of last season.
It might be too late for this season's title hopes but at long last the Ibrox faithful are seeing signs of promise at last. The gap on Premiership leaders Celtic remains at 11 points but they're now just two behind second place Aberdeen with a game in hand.
