Rangers manager Ally McCoist has admitted that he almost walked away from the crisis-hit Ibrox club.

The former Rangers striker was on the brink of quitting Ibrox amid reports that new chief executive Charles Green was planning to replace him as manager but, after holding peace talks with Green, when he was assured that he was a part of the owners future plans, he has agreed to stay.
Despite Rangers not knowing what division they will be playing in next season, McCoist says he is likely to take charge and that the future of the club is the biggest priority.
"At first when I was told there might have been a move to get me out, my reaction was natural. I was furious," McCoist told the Daily Record. "I did confront Charles Green about it on Wednesday, I was looking for answers and that meeting didn't end well. I've reassessed my position and taken a step back from the brink. As things stand at the moment I am still manager."
