McCoist: Players fear job losses

An emotional Ally McCoist believes that some of his first team stars are fearing the axe from the clubs’ administrators.

Tuesday’s appointment of administrators Duff and Phelps has put every job under threat with cuts certain at all levels including players and management.

Today’s 1-0 defeat to Kilmarnock was another bitter blow for the Rangers boss to stomach with Celtic going to Hibs tomorrow looking to stretch their lead to 17 points.

The threat of job losses is real with McCoist unsure of the effect that it is having on his players.

“I don’t know, we will all have different opinions on it,” he answered about the uncertain future of his players. “I’m not sure.

“I certainly wouldn’t blame them if maybe it did get to them a little bit.

“We can all say they are professional but if somebody threatens your job, people will react in different ways.”

Earlier today Paul Clark of Duff and Phelps had revealed that they had obtained further details about the clubs complex financial affairs.

Clark said: “We have been receiving information from channels but specifically we have received some information overnight from solicitors that have previously been connected with the football club and it’s that information that we require to go through in some detail and get some clarity on.

“It’s in relation to several transactions in relation to the takeover and other issues in relation to the financial affairs of the football club over the past few months.”
