WILSON and Fleck turn down new deals with Rangers More... RANGERS could lose both Danny Wilson and John Fleck to English football after manager Walter Smith revealed the pair turned down new contracts. The 18-year-olds, who both have 18 months left on their current deals, were offered lucrative new contracts but have been advised by their agents to turn those offers down and look to further their careers down south. Wilson has only just burst into the top team set up making his debut at Dundee two months ago in the Co-operative Insurance Cup and has subsequently played in all competitions for Rangers. He is once more deputising for Madjid Bougherra, who is on duty at the African Cup of Nations. Fleck, who has been in the squad for over two years now, has had a stop-start season and most of his appearances have come from the bench. His last start was at Aberdeen on November 28. Smith had hoped the two players would want to continue to learn their trade with Rangers. He said: "It's disappointing that they've turned down new contracts but that's the world we live in at the moment. "Could things change on that front? It certainly doesn't look like it. The disappointing aspect is that contractual aspects for 18-year-olds have been placed before careers. "I've not had any conversations with the players' agents to find out their reasons for turning down the deals. But it's quite straight forward. They've turned it down so they must see an opportunity elsewhere which would probably need to be down in England, I would imagine."

CONDOLENCES to family of Ian Hosie More... RANGERS were saddened to hear of the death of former Stadium Access Manager Ian Hosie, Ian, who was 67, was a lifelong supporter and he was delighted when the opportunity came along for him to work at the Club that he loved after he had retired from Strathclyde Police, where he achieved the rank of Detective Chief Superintendent in the CID. He was given the opportunity as Head of Ticketing to organise the Ticket Office in the early 1990s, a task he relished and enjoyed for several years before parting company with the club. Ian never lost his allegiance and he could often be seen at home and away games which he continued to go to until his recent illness. A service was held on Wednesday at the South Lanarkshire Crematorium and was well attended by family friends and past Rangers players and staff as well as colleagues from his time working in Strathclyde Police The Management Players and Staff at the Club would like to take this opportunity to pass on their sincere condolences to Ian's wife Margaret and sons Craig and Darren as well as the rest of his family and close friends.

NOVO could face Accies on Sunday, Thommo also set to return More... NACHO NOVO could be fit to return to the Rangers starting line up as soon as this Sunday when the Light Blues face Hamilton in the Scottish Cup. The Spanish striker had to go off after just 13 minutes of the weekend draw at Celtic after a collision with home player Georgios Samaras. Novo suffered a thigh injury and after heavy internal bleeding, it was thought he'd be out for the next two or three weeks. But while he hasn't yet returned to training, the knock isn't as bad as was first feared and he could yet find himself included in the squad that goes to Accies five days from now. That would come as a huge boost to manager Walter Smith, who is already without a number of other key players. Steven Naismith, DaMarcus Beasley and Pedro Mendes have all been injured lately while Madjid Bougherra is away preparing for the African Cup of Nations. But there's further good news for Smith as Kevin Thomson has now resumed full training after a calf injury and he'll be available for the game at New Douglas Park too. The Gers boss said: "Kevin is one who I'd hope will be fit for the weekend and Nacho has a chance. "It looked like a bad knock in the thigh for him at the weekend but the physiotherapists have been working hard on it. As such, there may now be an opportunity for him to play after all this weekend after it seemed he might be out. "As for the rest, we'll need to wait and see. DaMarcus and Pedro are both coming along well and we're hopeful of having a couple of players back."
