one55 1,510 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 RANGERS are today delighted to announce striker Kenny Miller has signed a one year extension to his current contract. In what is now Miller’s third spell as a Gers player, he has proved to be an integral part of Mark Warburton’s squad this season both on the field and off it. Scoring five goals in 13 appearances so far in this campaign, Miller has also taken on a coaching role with Rangers’ under-20s team, working under their manager Ian Durrant. This remains a playing contract however given how impressed manager Mark Warburton has been with the Scotland national team ‘Roll of Honour’ member. Over his spells with Rangers, Miller has made 201 appearances and has hit 81 goals in the process. With Rangers hopeful of a return to the top flight next season, Miller will possibly have the chance to add to his excellent record against old foes Celtic, against whom he has scored seven goals in 13 games played. Despite the importance of those goals however, arguably his greatest moment in Light Blue came in the 2010 League Cup Final against St Mirren. With Rangers down to nine men with Danny Wilson and Kevin Thomson having been sent off, Miller incredibly nodded in a late winner to sensationally bring the trophy back to Ibrox. Although he has been battling a slight injury in the last few weeks, Miller looks set to return to the Rangers squad for Saturday’s trip to Livingston. http://rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/kenny-signs-new-deal/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Gallant Pioneer 555 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 This must be a joke. Maybe Warbs doesn't plan on hanging around. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smile 26,592 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Not one i would sign to be honest looks like he's towing a trailer when he runs now. Frustrating player to watch as he just wont hold his position.Was a good signing a good few years back but struggling now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.A.I 36,183 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Not as against this as some will be. He's got good experience and is an impact player. Could be useful as a squad player next season.Provided he's on cheap wages and we are looking at real quality targets to enhance our starting XI outright for next year then I'm fine with it.

The Godfather 70,781 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Hopefully its on low wages and he's doing some coaching.Ideally we will not see him much in the top flight, I expect a far better calibre of player next season.

Bigsasasfloppyhair 13,310 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Surely there to get involved in coaching and a back up striker second. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
one55 1,510 Posted November 17, 2015 Author Share Posted November 17, 2015 Not sure I'd start him every game. Keep him as a sub and bring him on later in the game. I think he's better this season than last. If Warburton is happy with him then I'm not worrying. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perth_Campsie_Ger 17,865 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Zero hours contract since he is just signing a blank bit if paper. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kris1984 1,205 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Surprised at this one tbh. Can't fault his effort and will do this year but hoping for better players than current Kenny next season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferris Bueller 1,569 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Good move, makes sense to keep him for his experience and he's obviously being lined up to get more involved in the coaching side of things. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbr 364 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 MW has consistently said he likes experienced/good pro,s to mentor the younger players , you can say what you like about Miller but he's a model professional Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
centenarystand 2,227 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 We are lacking craft and penetration up front so not a good move im afraid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRF-LCC-RFC 54 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Kenny miller in first 5 games of the season (3 sub appearances I think and 2 starts) - 5 goalsHe's definitely effective even if he was only a 2nd/3rd choice for any of front 3 positionsA year contract extension and then maybe keep him as a coach will do me Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Jela 20,017 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Piss poor decision. Should never have been brought back for a 3rd spell ffs Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ritchieshearercaldow 22,011 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Hope it's paid on a game by game basis, he'll never reach the heights in the SPFL Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cushynumber 25,178 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 that will strike fear into the hearts of SPFL opposition defences. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeds_Bear 8,062 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Great guy to have in the dressing room when we return to the Prem but not as a player, he popped up with a few goals beginning of the season but he's completely off the pace of our style and play.

The Godfather 70,781 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Hopefully nothing more than boosting the squad numbers up.I can't see him starting in the first 11 next season, if that were to happen then it would be panic stations.

Bluekev 43,202 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 I think MW has done it for the experience in the dressing room. There are a lot of young players at the club and KM will be a good mentor and he will pass on what is expected of RFC players and like has been said I think he's getting lined up for a coaching role Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CF2 WINNIE 1,006 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 He is exactly the kind of player that is needed in the dressing room for the young players. I don't think we will actually see that much of him as a player anyways but IMO he is a handy man to have coming off the bench for 10/15 mins this season even the 30 mins that Mr Warburton likes to give Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
