He was also their first goalscorer in the Premier League, in a 2–2 home draw with Crystal Palace on 22 August 1992.[7]

Durie played a major role in winning the last four of their 'nine in a row' of Scottish league championships and playing a handful of matches in two later title wins.[8] Durie scored a hat-trick in the 1996 Scottish Cup Final to help Rangers beat Hearts 5–1[9][10] and collected runners-up medals in the competition in 1994 and 1998; he was a Scottish League Cup winner in 1998.[8]
