Boab 73 Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 RANGERS' midfielder Andrew Shinnie has capped a memorable 12 months by signing a new three-year deal with the club.Andrew ShinnieThe Aberdeen-born youngster played a key role as Billy Kirkwood's under-19 side clinched a league and cup double in 2006/07 and his ability to push forward and score vital goals was of great importance to the team.Gers' manager Walter Smith has been keeping close eye on Andrew's progress and had no hesitation in pushing him into his first-team squad in the latter stages of the campaign.The 17-year-old playmaker was then handed his debut as a substitute in a 3-0 home SPL win over the Dons and also featured against Killie on May 13.Shinnie's agent Charlie Duddy said: "We're delighted to have agreed a new deal with Rangers."Andrew's aim is to try and become a part of the Rangers first-team from now on."Look out for an exclusive interview with Andrew later this week.

Frankie 505 Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Good news.I actually expect more from Shinnie than Furman. He's stronger and a bit more versatile so more likely to get the odd game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
