Fans heaped praise on both Steven Gerrard and Rangers on Friday night, after the club released a video a young fan getting the VIP treatment at Ibrox on a matchday.

The original tweet from John O’Byrne, which was shared by Jack’s wife Ashleigh, describes young Lucas as a child who spends a lot of his time in hospital.

It seems John and the Gers midfielder teamed up to give the boy a big surprise and they pulled it off superbly.

Lucas is shown a video of Jack saying he’s heard a lot about the young fan and is looking forward to meeting him. Then, he’s led through into a function room where his hero is waiting for him.

The reaction is priceless, with Lucas running over to Jack for a hug. After the two share a chat, Jack signs a new Rangers away shirt with ‘Lucas 8’ on the back, much to the youngster’s delight.
