Lee McCulloch has confirmed he fully intends to continue playing on till next season and potentially beyond.

 

Rangers’ captain, 36, has come under increasing fire for his poor performances and has been subject to a barrage of criticism that he is ‘past it’. Given the quality of his displays it is hard to argue with this, but nevertheless despite it he believes he can win a new contract this summer (he is one of the dozen whose deal expires this year) and intends to fight for his place:

 

“The new manager has come in and said: “Well, it’s up to yourselves to go out there and earn it. If you want to be here next season then go and earn your contract and show that you are worthy of one”. I think that is the best thing for it. It is a big motivation for me. I’m not getting any younger.”

 

He continued:

 

“It would be amazing, it would be brilliant to go back to the top and it would be nice. But at times football isn’t nice. So I would love to be here, but I need to go and earn that myself. I know that as does every other player here.”

 

New manager Stuart McCall has promised wholesale changes, and it remains to be seen if McCulloch’s wishes to extend his time at Ibrox are his own wishful thinking or whether a 37 or 38 year old Lee McCulloch will still be plying his trade at Ibrox next season.

It saddens me to say it but what possible reason is there for re-signing him? Even if he rolls back the years and put's in consistently excellent performances for the last few games, what does that say about his attitude for the previous three quarters of a season. With the possible exception of Bell, in an ideal world we wouldn't re-sign anyone. We may have to but I'd rather not.

He's never been consistently excellent at any point in his career so I don't see it happening now :).

This guy has made millions out of Rangers by being a dire footballer. It sickens me that he has been able to hang around our club for eight years and has contributed nothing.

 

He scored a goal in Lyon - wow !!
