Rangers may rest Ferguson

Barry Ferguson may drop out of the starting line-up for Rangers’ Clydesdale Bank Premier League game against St Mirren tomorrow.

The Ibrox skipper came through his first 90 minutes of the season at Motherwell on Wednesday and his fitness will be assessed before Walter Smith names his team.

Sasa Papac has been rated doubtful after suffering a blow to the head at Fir Park, although the left-back does not have concussion.

Provisional squad: McGregor, Broadfoot, Weir, Bougherra, Papac, Whittaker, Davis, Mendes, Ferguson, Lafferty, Novo, Miller, Boyd, Alexander, Edu, McCulloch, Loy, Shinnie.
