Martyn Waghorn is hoping to tip toe his way through to the end of his Sevco contract while predicting a successful season at Ibrox.
The former Wigan striker watched Barrie McKay get ostracised as he made a scene over turning down a new deal with the Nottingham Forest new boy highly critical of his treatment at Ibrox.
Waghorn is out of contract at the end of this season and needs to maintain a profile in order to get a reasonable new deal when he returns to England.
The finances at Ibrox are a complete mystery with the striker minimising comment on a new contract with the smokescreen of battling for a place against Pedro Caixinha’s newly signed strikers.
Predictably he told the club TV station: “We have brought in two strikers and brought in competition right throughout the squad. Not only for myself, but for other players maybe on the fringes, it’s chance for everyone to impress.
“We have games coming up, and when you get your time, you are going to have to utilise it and try to do as best as you can to force your way into the squad.
“For me, it’s going to be a big season – I want to do as well as I can for this club and I have a lot to prove.
“I feel like it is going to be a successful season for the team and I want to be a part of that.”
Sevco have a glamour friendly tonight behind closed doors tonight at Watford followed by their final glamour friendly of the season away to Sheffield Wednesday on Sunday ahead of the opening SPFL match away to Motherwell.
Following their Europa League exit to Progres Niederkorn in the Europa League there is a £6m deficit in the Ibrox budget with season ticket sales coming to a halt after the 2-0 defeat in Luxembourg.
