Barry Ferguson has been given the most brutal put-down with Heart & Hand ruling him out of the assistant manager’s job at Ibrox.
As the club hunt for a glamorous name to take over from Steven Gerrard there has been a parallel search to find a True Blue with experience of management and the Scottish game.
With spells in charge of Clyde, Kelty Hearts and Alloa many of Ferguson’s media friends have been pushing the case to have him fitted out in a top quality Castore trackie.
The Barry Ferguson as assistant rumour is categorically untrue according to club.
