More than three decades since its last staging, Scottish football's cult indoor event makes a comeback with the "creaky joints" of former players taking to an ice rink.
With the assistance of Durrant, Barry Ferguson will manage a Rangers team including the likes of Charlie Adam and Andy Halliday, while Aiden Mc Geady and Charlie Mulgrew are among Celtic's squad. Hearts legend Rudi Skacel will also be in action. The fact that current first-team players represented the clubs back in the day highlights just how seriously the tournament was taken. Davie Cooper scored the first-ever Tennent's Sixes goal during his peak years in the mid-1980s.
The lore is bizarre and highlights how much the game has changed this century. In 1988, when Rangers declined to take part, Brian Clough's Nottingham Forest were participants. Dundee were the winners that year, but it is Partick Thistle who have been the holders since 1993. With no cash award on offer, tankards from the competition sponsors were the prize.
