BARRY FERGUSON won 15 trophies as a Rangers player.
But some of the stars currently at Ibrox won’t pay much attention to that, according to one of the club’s cult heroes.

CLYDE 1Andy Halliday has had his say[/caption]
Andy Halliday grew up supporting the Light Blues and was on their books as a youth player when Ferguson was in his pomp.
He later came back to the club in 2015 and played for his boyhood team for five years.
Before that, incidentally, he was coached by Ferguson when the former Gers skipper was placed in caretaker charge of Blackpool.
The Motherwellstar reckons Ferguson’s long line of achievements as a player won’t have too much of an impact on the current squad at Ibrox.
Halliday insists the former club captain’s record of success might not influence what is a multi-national group of players and that giving the team an identity both on and off the park is more important.
Speaking on Clyde 1’s Superscoreboard, Halliday said: “I think it can make a difference. It can make a small difference.
“But what’s more important is your identity as a group, your style on the pitch and what you’re putting in on the training ground every day.
“I’ve worked with Barry Ferguson, he was my manager at Blackpool and what I will say is he will certainly put standards on these players every single day which is extremely important.
“Equally as important is your dressing room. When I was a younger player growing up, the manager was in control of a whole lot whether that be the dressing room, fine systems, whatever it may be.
“Now, especially over the last five or ten years, that’s player policed. The standards are driven by your dressing room.
“So yes he can come in and put standards on your training pith but it’s got to be within your team as well.
“We had people saying that when Michael Beale left and Rangers appointed Alex Rae that he knew what it was like, but he just lost his job as well.”

AN “audacious” group of thieves nicked a £4.8 million solid gold toilet from Blenheim Palace in just five minutes — before flogging it to a top Hatton Garden jeweller, a court heard.
An ‘audacious’ group of thieves nicked a £4.8 million solid gold toilet from Blenheim Palace in just five minutes, a court heardPASimon JonesMichael Jones allegedly smashed through the front gates of Oxfordshire stately home Blenheim Palace and nabbed the artwork, ‘America’, in September 2019[/caption]
Hyde News & Pictures LtdBlenheim Palace, where the alleged crime took place[/caption]
The toilet — which weighed 98kg (15st 4lbs) and was insured for £4.8million — had been fully plumbed in, causing significant damage when it was removed.
Prosecutor Julian Christopher KC told Oxford crown court: “The burglary was carefully planned and swiftly carried out.
“The men drove through locked wooden gates into the grounds of Blenheim Palace shortly before 5am in two stolen vehicles.
“They knew precisely where to go.
“They had sledgehammers, which they left at the scene.
“They went to the cubicle where the toilet was fully plumbed in, removed it, leaving water pouring out of the pipes, and drove away, spending just five minutes at the building.”
He added Jones, 40, who was working for ringleader Sheen’s building firm at the time, had made visits to the exhibition days before it opened.
Jones is alleged to have visited the toilet again only 17 hours before it was taken.
He is said to have snapped pictures of the loo, the inside of the door and the locks in the room in which it was on show, which had been guarded by a security officer.
Sheen, 39, has already pleaded guilty to burglary.
Jones was arrested in October 2019 and gave a no comment interview.
The toilet was never recovered and is believed to have been “split up into smaller amounts of gold and disposed of”.
Two days after the robbery, Sheen messaged Doe: “I got something right up your path.”
They went on to discuss how much the “car” — which the prosecutor said was a euphemism for the gold — was worth before Doe called Hatton Garden jewellers Pacha of London, owned by Mr Guccuk.
Mr Guccuk, 40, eventually paid £25,632 per kilogram, nearly £4,000 below market value, and planned to sell it on for £28,580.
The prosecutor said “Mr Guccuk must have known what type of gold he was getting”.
Jones, of Oxford, denies one count of burglary. Doe, of Ascot, Berks, also known as Fred Sines, and Guccuk, 40, of West London, both deny conspiracy to transfer criminal property.
The trial continues.
