Steven Davis says Rangers Hall of Fame honour is "beyond my wildest dreams"

Steven Davis admitted being inducted into Rangers Hall of Fame was a moment "beyond my wildest dreams".

From being a boyhood fan of the Light Blues, to cementing his place in the pantheon of the club's greats, Davis said his latest honour was "difficult to put into words".

The Ibrox club announced its latest inductees on Sunday night, with Davis joining current captain James Tavernier and veteran goalkeeper Allan McGregor on the prestigious list.

"It's huge, and it's really difficult to put into words in terms of the magnitude of it. I think growing up in Northern Ireland and being a boyhood fan, my dream was always to play for the club first and foremost," Davis told Rangers TV.

"But to inducted into the hall of fame with people I idolised growing up it is a really special moment for me.

"It means a lot. There is such a big following from Northern Ireland. All my friends and myself grew up as fans and we emulated the players when growing up and playing in the park.

"To be in this position is beyond my wildest dreams."

Davis joins illustrious company including legendary figures such as John Greig and Sandy Jardine in Rangers' Hall of Fame.

Other Ibrox royalty to be inducted include Ally McCoist, Brian Laudrup, Colin Stein and Davie Cooper.

"I have a lot of memories and ups and downs, you go through the emotions during the course of a season," added Davis, who is currently recovering from a double tear of his ACL in training before Christmas

"But there have been so many special times I will carry with me for the rest of my life and it has been a great period of my career and I am just delighted to be able to be part of it."
