Rangers vs Leipzig
Ibrox Stadium Rangers

Rangers FC dropped points yet again as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Dundee on Sunday.

The single point means Rangers are now second on the league table – two points adrift of Celtic FC who have reclaimed the top spot.

The Gers are planning to bring in a couple of more signings during the winter transfer window while some believe instead of spending money on new players, the manager will just call back a few of his loanees.

But midfielder Greg Docherty is not expected to be one of those players.




Docherty joined the Gers in January of 2018 but was sent out on a season-long loan to League One side Shrewsbury Town during the summer.

And now talking about his long-term future, Greg Docherty has admitted that he is clueless as to whether Steven Gerrard wants him back at Ibrox or not.

Greg Docherty told The Sunday Post: “As far as I’m aware I have signed for the season at Shrewsbury Town. I don’t know if there is an option to take me back to Rangers next month.




“I’m aware there has been some chat on the internet about it, but I honestly couldn’t tell you. However, it’s nice that people are taking notice of what I’m doing here.

“It’s a situation I do not have any control over. If there are to be any discussions, then it will be between the clubs. I am fully focused on my football.

“When I joined Shrewsbury in the summer it was with the intention to be here for the season, get as many games as possible under my belt, and go back to Rangers a better player and a stronger person.

“The manager (Steven Gerrard) had an honest discussion with me and it was agreed it was crucial for me to play as many first-team games as possible at this stage of my development.




“It was an amicable conversation and we were in agreement. I have nothing but respect and admiration for the manager.




“It goes without saying I keep an eye on every Rangers result and I’m willing the club on every day to be successful.

“My long-term plan is to be a first-team player at Rangers. That’s my aim. If that is to start next summer then I’ll be delighted.

“If it is to start sooner, then it will be up to the manager.

“What I do know is that I’m enjoying my football at Shrewsbury Town. We have a great stadium here and first-class training facilities. The club has a good infrastructure.




“Everyone from the management, coaches and chief executive, Brian Caldwell, have made me feel very welcome and helped me settle, on and off the park. I’m grateful to everybody.

“We now just need to go on a wee run of wins and climb the table. We can get up there pretty quickly and there is a belief we can do it. But this is a competitive league. We won’t take anything for granted.”
