Little General 80 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) http://www.rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/item/9499-kiernan-joins-gers MARK WARBURTON has reunited with Rob Kiernan after the defender signed for Rangers from Wigan on a two-year deal. The 24-year-old central defender put pen to paper on his deal this morning as he prepares to work once again with Warburton. The pair worked together at Watford where Warburton coached a youth side that included Kiernan at the Milk Cup in Northern Ireland. They were then reunited when Warburton was Sporting Director at Brentford and brought the player on loan from Wigan. A Republic of Ireland captain at under-19 and under-21 level, Kiernan moves to Glasgow after a loan spell at Birmingham ended in May. He appeared 17 times for Wigan in the first half of last season before featuring in a dozen matches during his loan with Birmingham. Kiernan has previous experience in Scotland where he spent a short spell on loan at Kilmarnock.

BlackSocksRedTops 3,806 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 I like what we are trying to do here. Two young and hungry ball playing central defenders with a seasoned pro like Eustace sitting in front pulling the strings (hopefully). It looks like a plan. A formation. An ethos. Sure beats the Age of Jig and random journeyman foreign overpaid duds. Bring on the Revolution! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangersitis 0 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 OK looks good but where will Darren play? Out wide with Wallace on the other side Hopefully both will be moved on and replaced by two better players. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 913 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Not only are we getting players who will be committed on the park, we aren't handing out silly lengthy contracts. Its good business by the club. Kiernan is in on a 2 year deal and Wilson a 3 year deal, not risky at all. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
