Four Rangers honoured

By: j | November 11th, 2008

George Burley has announced his selections for Scotland’s friendly against Argentina, which includes Rangers Allan McGregor, Kenny Miller, Kirk Broadfoot and Barry Ferguson.

When asked of the selection of Barry Ferguson, Walter Smith commented:

“He’s fit enough now, but he’s obviously going to be short of match fitness and it will be doubtful if he would play for 90 minutes if selected. But I think George just wants him back and involved with the group. He is captain of the country and he has been out injured and has missed the international games while George has been there. The national team will be a decent thing for him at the moment to be quite honest. This will be a step in the right direction for him.”

To represent your homeland might be the greatest honour in the game and it great to see these men represent Scotland.

    With Craig Gordon hurt, McGregor might get his second start for Scotland. He’ll have a job in front of him, that’s for sure.

    Thought all the Rangers players were taking their baw and going home because of Boyd?

    Ian, I think you’re right. What a great chance for him.

    Matt, I wasn’t aware of that. Had some of them said that? I don’t think highly of anyone turning away from their national team. Its a honour to play for your homeland pure and simple. Hope all is well -
