A cap belonging to David Mitchell is on display within Ibrox.We were curious and hoped that it had been made by our Founders Peter McNeil and his brother Harry who of course had the sports outfitters H&P McNeils in Glasgow from 1877-1896 so we nudged the club and low and behold they confirmed that it was…a truly wonderful moment.
