While the bar's official inspiration hasn't been confirmed, it is believed that Walter's Bar is named in tribute to legendary former Rangers manager, the late Walter Smith.
Smith took charge of Rangers in 1991, succeeding Graeme Souness, and led the club to unprecedented success, winning 13 major trophies in seven years, including seven consecutive league titles.
After a spell managing the Scotland national team, where he notably lifted them 70 places in the FIFA World Rankings, Smith returned to Rangers in 2007 and added eight more trophies to his collection.
He guided the team to the 2008 UEFA Cup Final before retiring in 2011.
Walter Smith remains the second-most successful manager in Rangers' history, behind only Bill Struth, and is deeply revered by fans across generations.
Walter's Bar is expected to become a gathering place that honours his legacy while offering a new home for passionate Rangers supporters in the heart of Rutherglen.

Steven Gerrard's daughter Lilly announces baby's name with sweet meaning
Ex Rangers boss Steven Gerrard has become a grandad after her oldest daughter Lilly, 21, welcomed her first child with partner Lee Byrne. Steven Gerrard's daughter Lilly has announced the name of her baby girl after the 21-year-old announced the birth of her first child yesterday. Taking to her Instagram Stories, Lily shared a sweet picture of her holding the newborn's hand in hers as she captioned it: "So lucky to be your mum. My beautiful baby girl. Lila Grey. Perfection", alongside a series of love heart emojis. Lily and partner Lee Byre, who is the son of imprisoned Irish gangster Liam Byrne, brought their little girl home yesterday for the first time. It seems they were well prepared for her arrival as the ex Rangers star's daughter shared gorgeous snaps of their decorated dining table which was adorned with pink and white balloons with little bows, flowers and candles, a teddy bear and a 'Welcome to the World' sign. Lily and Lee, who have been together since 2022, announced they were expecting their first child earlier this year in a sweet Instagram post which was uploaded in January. At the time, Steven Gerrard publicly commented on the photo which showed a pregnancy journal, two scan pictures, a little pair of boots and two positive pregnancy tests. He wrote: "We cant wait. Great news and congratulations we love you." Lily has been very active on social media since little Lila arrived, sharing a series of snaps and updates with her 224k Instagram followers. Among the pictures was a black and white snap of Lee walking out of the hospital with the baby carrier in his hand as she captioned it: "@leebyrne8 2 becomes 3." While Lily has been happy to share the birth, she has already made a conscious effort to protect her daughter's identity. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

The name Lila appears to be a shortened version of the tot's mum's name, Lilly-Ella but also the letter L is significant as Lilly's siblings all begin with the same, Lexie, Lourdes and Lio. In further snaps uploaded to her Stories, family members can be seen cradling baby Lila but her face has been covered with a white heart emoji. After announcing Lila's arrival yesterday, the young couple have received an influx of supportive messages from fans and loved ones on the post. Among them was little sister Lexie Gerrard, 19, Steven's youngest daughter, who wrote: "She's perfection. Proud of you Li." One fan wrote: "Congratulations, another little Liverpool fan." Someone else commented: "Absolutely beautiful name". A third replied: "Lovely pictures Lilly Gerrard." Another chimed in: "Congratulations Lilly, hope you're all doing well xx" The post has already accumulated almost 10k likes and hundreds of comments. A month before they welcomed their little bundle of joy, Lilly gave fans a sneak preview into her preparations on her Instagram including a shopping trolley which was packed with all the essentials such as nappies, baby wipes, and creams, as she wrote "nesting mode". The couple have also bought 'mama' and 'papa' mugs and have even purchased a pregnancy journal to document all the milestones. Lilly's relationship with Lee Byrne, whose father is the notorious Irish criminal Liam Byrne, has been public since October 2022 and initially sparked controversy.

Neyland Carnival is sizzling success in top temperatures
Soaring temperatures saw scheduled 'water stops' for the bands and carnival entrants as they made their way along the route from Honeyborough Green, through the town, down to the promenade and back to the carnival field. Balloons gave some welcome shade to Super Mario and Luigi! (Image: Phil Haskett-Smith) Crowds lined the route and more than 1,000 people then joined in the fun on the field, where Mid and South Pembrokeshire MP Henry Tufnell presented prizes and Wales' First Minister, Eluned Morgan, drew the bumper raffle. Wales' First Minister, Eluned Morgan, is pictured with brothers Alex and Adrian Swales, who are the carnival secretary and chairman. (Image: Alex Swales) 'It was another big success with some top-notch entries,' said carnival secretary Alex Swales. 'I think the weather kept some people away, which is understandable. Fortunately, there were no heat-related casualties amongst the many who attended. The mayor of Neyland, Cllr Peter Hay and the mayor of Milford Haven, Cllr William Elliott judged the carnival, together with the deputy mayor of Pembroke Dock, Cllr Tony Wilcox. (Image: William Elliott) 'For the first time this year, we had live bands on the field to keep the party going into the evening, and we've had nothing but positive feedback for that.' Go the Thunderbirds from Lawrenny Avenue! (Image: Phil Haskett-Smith) Setting the pace for the parade were the ever-popular Samba Doc, with stirring sounds from the Swansea Pipe Band and lively music from Tin Man Revolution. Neyland CP School paid tribute to VE Day with their winning float. (Image: William Elliott) There were some outstanding entries in the parade, with friends, neighbours and organisations pulling out all the stops for their floats. Neyland CP School triumphed with their tableau celebrating VE Day, which even featured 'Winston Churchill' riding in a Jeep. And Mr Churchill came along for the ride as well! (Image: Phil Haskett-Smith) Residents of Lawrenny Street brought along the Thunderbirds, re-creating Tracy Island, Lady Penelope's FAB 1 Rolls-Royce and a Thunderbirds 2 rocket. Sirring sounds in the parade from the Swansea Pipe Band. (Image: Phil Haskett-Smith) As well as the Carnival Princess, the event also starred its own Carnival King and Queen, community stalwarts Tommy and Maureen Lavelle, chosen by a public vote. Carnival Royalty, Tommy and Maureen, rode in style. (Image: Phil Haskett-Smith) Neyland's county councillor, Dr Simon Hancock, said: ''The annual carnival is the undoubted highlight of the social calendar in Neyland. Every year, the ingenuity of the float entries and walkers become more elaborate and inventive. Golden crowns for the King and Queen! (Image: Phil Haskett-Smith) "The hard work of the entrants is matched by the efforts of the committee who obtain sponsorship and plan the day down to the smallest detail. "This joyous day brings the county to Neyland and is vastly enjoyed by all." All the fun of the fair on the carnival field. (Image: Phil Haskett-Smith)
