McCoist: No personal agendas amongst Rangers players

Rangers manager Ally McCoist has made it clear that there is absolutely no division in his dressing room in regards to players taking wage cuts.

Talks on Tuesday about 'Gers players slashing their salary by 75% did not come to a conclusion with some being unable to come to an agreement but McCoist insists that all of the playing group are in it together to help get the club out of deep financial trouble.

"Everybody has the club's best interests at heart and there are absolutely no personal agendas within the playing staff or any other staff," he told the club's official website.

"We all want what is best for the football club and that is what we are all still attempting to achieve.

"There has been a lot of hard work already, nobody should underestimate the amount that has gone in in the last few days, and that will absolutely continue in the search for the positive result we all hope we can get.

"Nobody should underestimate the sacrifice that the players have been asked to make.

"It is to their eternal credit that they have discussed it and gone through it and in a lot of the cases there have been agreements.

"It's still not dead and buried and to a man everybody is behind us and wants to take this club forward.

"All the players, and I mean all the players, and indeed all the staff can reassure everybody and every Rangers fan that they are singing from the same hymn sheet.

"I've got to tell you there is no split camp at all. It would annoy me, or in fact anger me for anybody to suggest that is the case.

"I can promise you that it is not the case, it is far from it. Everybody to a man is together in this and we will get through this."
