Former England star Paul Gascoigne has offered to make a sensational return to football with Sevco.
The 45-year-old has fought a long battle against alcohol and recently went 18 months without touching a drop.
Gascoigne spent almost three seasons at Ibrox under Walter Smith and would love to be re-united with his former team-mate Ally McCoist.
“I’ll play for Rangers next season,” Gazza told The Sun. “I will be there next season supporting Coisty and his team.
“And I’ll you this — if I can get my hip sorted I’ll make myself available for a few games in the Third Division if Coisty needs me. There is no better time to play for Rangers than right now.”
The Geordie added: “I can honestly say that if I had just played in a tournament like the European Championship finals and I had the chance to sign for Real Madrid, Barcelona or Rangers I would choose Rangers because of Coisty and the fans.
“I had the best time of my life at Rangers. I lived next door to Coisty for four years and I know he is Rangers through and through.
“It wouldn’t matter if the club was in the Sunday league, he would still manage them for nothing. I am convinced he will make the club great again.”
McCoist voiced his frustrations of working with just six experienced players last week during a meeting with a group of supporters.
Eleven of last seasons’ Rangers first team squad have refused to transfer over to TUPE with Carlos Bocanegra, Maurice Edu and Gorin Doian still to decide whether to return to Glasgow.
As well as a lack of players Sevco’s pre-season plans have been upset after five friendlies scheduled for this month were all postponed by the host clubs.

(The 45-year-old has fought a long battle against alcohol and recently went 18 months without touching a drop. REALLY!? After reading the rest of the article I think he’s back on the sauce.)
It is remarkable the love and respect these former players have for the club. Puts others to shame.
RANGERS FC(RIP)HAVE NO SHAME!!!!!
You must admit though GSW, it spoils it a wee bit that they’re all either drunk or mental.
Reluctantly agree.
yea cant knock a delusional alcoholic. as for the sauce? well, what that articlre fails to mention is tht he been partyin in dubai as recently as last week & yes he been on the sauce…….moaty moaty, its me, gazza…hahahahaaaa……what next – sleeket sally & nelly the elephant to go bk to the laces?
maybe believes theres an ebt in for him….breakin’ news on radio clyde; witch doctor agrees to conjure up the spirit john greig! also they are reportingthe terrace song deadco to be ‘huh huh huh huh staaaayin’ alive staaaaayin alive…….’
I know most of us hoops fans are expecting Celtic to get shafted somewhere along the line in this long drawn out affair, but if/when it happens, I don’t think I’ll be able to take any notice because I’ll not be able to stop laughing because of stories like this!!!! I hope all the Gers legg-ends from years gone by turn up to help them!!!That would be funny as f**k!!!!
“Celtic to get shafted somewhere along the line”
Indeed, there’s a silver lining to every cloud.
BLAH! BLAH! BLAH!
GSW, if this “home gates share” rule comes through as part of the bribe to get newco into the 1st division (thats how the SFA are offering the SFL clubs an “immediate cash boost!”) then celtic WILL be shafted, and so will newco once they get to the SPL
The way things stand at the moment – I think CG would just accept it, whatever is offered. It is basicaly being done over though.
Don’t have a problem with the wee SPL clubs having more money. They just need to find a way of more people turn up to their home games to provide it. 😉
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Gazza, seriously behave! It’s about time ex-players like you stop thinking “oldco” were anything special and accept the inevitable. They died trying to compete with Celtic Football Club and will never EVER get to our level of status.
As for the silver lining. I think you’ll find that was the demise of “oldco” after years of deception, ignorance and tainted success. It couldn’t have happened to a bitter…ahem….i mean better team! HH 😀 ps, good luck Gazza stayin sober.
Who is this team the wife beater talks of ??
He must still be on something pretty strong, as no such club exists…..has no-one told him.
Wants to play for the fans….all 250-600 of them huh. Might be better if he put his hand in his pocket and offered them some cash as he is one of the reasons they went bankrupt — Ooohhh you don’t like them THAT much then LOL
Typical attention seeker.
Poor Gazza
Joins the long line of publicity seekers looking for their 15 mins or in most cases 5 mins of headlines grabbing on the back of the timely demise of this institutionally corrupt organisation masquerading as a football club.
Given the reported financial status of Sevco 5088 Ltd, Sevco Scotland Ltd, Seb Coe Ltd or whatever they are calling themselves this week then has- been 45 years olds might be the player market that they are in.
Ha ha fs gazza if ure playin fur sevco next season a will buy u 2 bottles a bucky n a case a wifebeeters (stella). Hes joost looking fur a drinking partner fur next season. Silly geordie cunt. HH
Once you stop laughing this is actually very sad. It is a miracle that this poor sod has lasted as long as he has. It’s not only the booze that he has a problem, if even a fraction of the stories doing the rounds are anywhere near true. Plus he is absolutely mental.
Just when you think the club that were known as Rangers have bottomed out and are losing their comedy value along comes a deranged and very sad man to put the smile back on your face. This just gets more humiliating by the day fror all associated with the disgraced ex-football club. You can bet your bottom dollar cheating, fat Sally will be on the phone to him today to tell him to behave as things are bad enough without idiotic remarks like this making the ex-club even more of a laughing stock (not to mention the new entity which has not even kicked a ball).
Apparently, Derek Johnstone has been approached to take over in goal in a kind of Fatty Foulkes role.
Why don’t they just give up? It’s almost cruel the way things are going and the governing body are still working away behind the scenes to try and give the Newco the best start posible, despite the humiliation and disgrace which increases on a daily basis. Between them the SPL, SFA and ex-Rangers have almost killed Scottish football.
Couldn’t agree more JohnP – WELL SAID.
“Coisty Coisty, its me Gazza I’ve got me hip fixed”
this man is a complete arse he cant walk straight see straight never mind pull on football boots give it a rest for god sake get grip on life first.
The poor fool.
Just concentrate on becoming a real human being Gazza and for once keep yer gob shut and no one will know just how much of a village idiot you really are.
Word has it hes standin ootside deliverance park with a roast chicken a couple of tins o special brew and a fishing rod. We all know what happened last time
Gonyersel son!
Some of the comments above are a bit on the harsh side, there is a man well conquered by his demons and in need of peace and quiet. A cracking player in his day when all said and done.
Dodo FC, ex Dodo FC players and staff, the club that keeps on giving.
Keep the laughs coming.
🙂
Good Grief. Does this never end?. How much of this insanity can we be expected to take?. ‘Bomber’ and ‘Gazza’. FFS, make them go away.
The Huns are dead, but by fuck they make for very nosiy ghosts!NO SHAME, NO CLASS, NO TEAM, NO SURRENDER!
