Barry Ferguson addressed his Rangers players after their 2-2 draw with St Mirren, urging them to be mindful of their futures at the club. Despite taking the lead twice, Rangers couldn’t secure the win, and with the Scottish Premiership title now out of reach, Ferguson highlighted that significant changes were imminent. He stressed that even those with contracts were “playing for their future” and noted that the club was heading in the right direction with the ongoing takeover discussions and the appointment of Kevin Thelwell as sporting director. With a short off-season and European qualifiers looming, Ferguson made it clear that a big job lay ahead.

Shock Rangers XI Revealed for St Mirren Clash: Bailey Rice Gets the Nod in Bold Attacking Overhaul

April 26, 2025 RAYMOND 0

With only five matches left and a manager set to depart, Rangers face a difficult end to the season. Motivation has been a struggle for the squad, and while pride is on the line, stringing together victories may only highlight the painful gap to Celtic, who remain comfortably ahead.

First up is a challenging trip to St Mirren, who have already beaten Rangers twice this season. Despite little left to play for in terms of European qualification, Stephen Robinson’s side is never an easy opponent, and a bruising encounter is expected.

Changes to the starting XI are anticipated. Jack Butland should return to goal to rebuild his confidence, while the 3-5-2 formation might be scrapped due to limited options in the full-back positions. In midfield, Bailey Rice deserves a run of games, alongside Nicolas Raskin and Mohamed Diomande. Up front, Vaclav Cerny should retain his spot, with Oscar Cortes given a chance to rediscover his form on the left. The decision between Hamza Igamane and Danilo for the central striker role is crucial, with Igamane showing promise as the season’s standout forward.
