The die-hard Gers fans won free tickets for a tour of Ibrox at an event last month.

And the season ticket holders wanted to take someone "less fortunate" to the famous ground.

After posting on social media they got in touch with someone from the Dream Maker foundation who suggested Rangers daft Kiara.

The two brothers got in touch with Kiara's dad Aldo and mum Natasha yesterday morning and then headed straight over to pick her up and take her out for the day.

Gary told the Scottish Sun: "We've seen Ibrox hundreds of times we thought it would be good to take someone out who is less fortunate and with Easter approaching we thought it would be an ideal team to arrange it.

"It's the first time we've done something like that, but not the last.

"It was a special day, getting a smile from the wee lassie, it was a day I will never forget."

"We've given donations to charities before, but this was different to actually be there and see the difference your making was brilliant.

"Kiara loved it, especially when we all made her captain and she led us out of the tunnel with Simply the best playing in the background."

Kiara's dad Aldo shared an adorable pic of Kiara with the two lads at Ibrox on social media.

The famous Sandy Jardine main stand can be seen in background and they picked a cracking day to visit with the sun shining down on the pitch.

The grateful dad shared a post on the Facebook page Kiara Buonomo's Big Fight.

Aldo said: "Big thank you to to Chris & Gary, directors at 2 core electrics, took Kiara out for the day, picked up in a range rover jeep away for a tour of Ibrox stadium and a spot of
lunch at Argyle House. Lovely blokes with big hearts, Kiara thoroughly enjoyed herself and it will be forever appreciated. Thanks again 💙 ♥️ Kiara x."

One beamed: "Look at her wee face bet she had a ball."

Another added: "Amazing hen what a wee superstar."

Schoolgirl Kiara Buonomo was diagnosed with brain cancer last year and has been given only months to live.

Last month it emerged that vile messages were sent to the young girl's family aimed at Kiara, saying "hurry up and die" and talking about rape.

We told how Rangers ace Alfredo Morelos penned a heartfelt letter to the terminally ill schoolgirl.

Her dad Aldo also revealed that his daughter received two signed pics of her heroes Morelos and Andy Halliday.

Scots comedian Gary Faulds also pledged a special gig to raise funds for Kiara.

The break-out star announced 'Gary Faulds Live: Fundraiser for Kiara 2019 at Glee Club, Glasgow on Sunday April 28.'
