On a bad day for Rangers in the Scottish Premiership, a former Ger took a step closer to Premier League football. John Fleck played for the club between 2007 and 2012, making 41 league appearances. He was a very young prospect back then, but he chose not to stay at the club for the fight…

To be fair to Fleck, my memory of 2012 is that McCoist made it clear to him that even in the mess we found ourselves, he wasn’t wanted.
To be fair to McCoist, there may have been behaviour issues for that decision. But I felt that he would have stayed if we had asked. We could have built a team around him, he was that good and subsequent years have proven that
