James morrison wants to sign for rangers

[ian1964 10,875]

SCOTLAND star James Morrison has revealed his desire to sign for boyhood heroes Rangers.

 

The West Brom ace grew up as a kid in Darlington following the exploits of idols Paul Gascoigne and Brian Laudrup.

 

And the 25-year-old has admitted that when the time is right heâ??d love to emulate his heroes and pull on a light blue shirt.

 

For now heâ??s happy to remain a Premiership player with the Baggies, but confessed to a long-term dream of running out at Ibrox.

 

Morrison said: â??Football can sometimes shoot you down when you start thinking ahead too much. But I could definitely see myself playing in Scotland. I'm a bit of a Rangers man so it would be nice to play there one day.

 

â??The Old Firm games are quality and I try and get up there as much as I can to watch them.The Ibrox lads have sorted me out with tickets a few times.

â??Rangers is just a team I've followed since I was a kid so it would be great to play there in the future.I'm still young and hope to play at the highest level I can.

 

â??No disrespect to the SPL but at he moment it's not where it should be. But one day in the future, who knows.â?

 

Morrison had a chance to join Hibs as a kid, but Middlesbrough blew that idea out of the water so a move to Rangers would be second time lucky for Scottish football.

 

Morrison added : â??When I was 18 Hibs tried to sign me on loan when Tony Mowbray was in charge. Middlesbrough goalkeeping coach Stephen Pears knew Mowbray from their time together and they spoke about it. I was up for it but the club said no.â?

 

Morrison is a key member of Craig Leveinâ??s Scotland set-up and has become a fans favourite with his clever brand of attacking play. The former Middlesbrough player will start tomorrows clash with Cyprus in Larnaca and is itching to get the Euro 2012 failure out of his system.

It would be good to see him play for Rangers, but he'd have to take a huge drop in wages because I don't see any team paying ELP wages soon. Or even in his footballing lifetime.

Why would anyone want to come from the EPL to play in the SPL. Never mind the wages or their love of Rangers.

Why indeed???

 

I've no idea!

As much chance of signing Ibrahimovic.

Otherwise known as 'when I'm too old and past it to play at the top level'.

Naismith is many times the player James Morrison will ever be. He's some singer though.

I don't rate Morrison at all, posted missing against the powerhouse of Liechtenstein. Never really impressed me in a Scotland shirt. Much prefer Dorrans but who knows might be a revelation here but I doubt he would come up here for a significant wage drop and would we be willing to purchase him the first place. Other than that nice to know he likes us.
