All McCoist wants to be involved with Rangers to help the club in their time of need

Ally McCoist was on the brink of walking away before deciding to stay as manager of Rangers now owned by Charles Green's consortium. McCoist had heard second-hand reports that Green wanted to replace him and was understandably "furious". Following a meeting with Green yesterday he decided to stay at the helm. However, the new Ibrox chief executive still faces a real fight to get fans to buy into his newco club.
 
McCoist said: "At first, when I was told there might have been a move to get me out my reaction was natural. I was furious. I did confront Charles Green about it on Wednesday. I was looking for answers and that meeting didn't end well. I was then left with no other option, but to contemplate my future believing that I wasn't part of the plans. I've reassessed my position and taken a step back from the brink. As things stand at the moment I am still manager."
 
Since buying the club, Green has come under increasing pressure to step aside and sell the club to a consortium led by former Rangers manager Walter Smith which came in with a last minute bid for the club of £6m. McCoist stressed that the future of his club was all that mattered rather than his future and his relationship with Green did not matter. McCoist added: "So let's just see what happens but it must always be the right thing for Rangers."
