Former Rangers hitman Kenny KOs Ibrox link

[ian1964 10,409]

KENNY MILLER has finally killed off any chance of a return to Rangers by insisting he wants to extend his deal with Vancouver Whitecaps.

 

 

 

The former Old Firm and Scotland star is back in Canada preparing for the new MLS season after spending the winter keeping in shape at Rangers' Murray Park.

 

He has been linked with a third spell at Ibrox, despite the League One club's financial problems, but he says he's tired of denying he wants to re-sign for Rangers.

 

Miller said: "I've been in Vancouver 18 months and I don't think a month has gone by without those questions being thrown at me.

 

"I don't know what more I can actually do.

 

"If [Whitecaps] manager Carl Robinson wants to walk through and offer me a two-year deal right now, I'll sign it right here in front of you."

 

Miller has six months left of his Vancouver contract and is free to talk to other clubs.

 

But the 34-year-old, who quit international football last year, has made it clear he is desperate to win an extension to his current deal.

 

He said: "It has been made clear to me what I have to do to earn an extension so that's what I'm going to do.

 

"Part of the reason I retired from playing for Scotland was hopefully to concentrate fully on the Whitecaps and stay fit for as long as I can and give them everything I can.

 

"Going back and forth with international duty was becoming tough.

 

"And, like I said, I want to stay here and I would love to sign again."

Good.

 

However he's either been misquoted here or telling porkies as he was talking up coming back to. Rangers when on tv for one of our games recently.

Perhaps the wise words from his old man have actually worked...

Thing is ... I doubt that Rangers had any intention to actually sign him. IMHO a typical case of the media whipping up a rumour, repeating it every time he becomes (remotely) available, start thinking there is actually real interest on our part and then say that we lose out. When there actually was no interest in him at all. (Methinks they tried the same with their beloved Yahoos and Zlatan Ibrahimovic ... )

Unless I am mistaken, McCoist was actually on record as saying he would like to bring Miller back.

More like ... "if a player like him was available, wouldn't any sane manager not want him back?" AFAIK, we never made an offer for or to him though, even when he was with us during the US shut-down season.

No, I believe McCoist was talking specifically about Miller.

Thank God. He did well for us during his second spell but his time has come and gone.

Changed his tune from a few weeks ago when he was well up for coming back here in the summer.
