Josef Bursik admits he’s ready to prove he’s moved on from being the warm-up act for his idol Jack Butland when Hibs arrive at Ibrox.

The Easter Road keeper shared a dressing-room with his Light Blues counterpart during a spell at Stoke City as a starstruck understudy.

But as David Gray’s side attempt to build on last week’s win over St Johnstone, Bursik paid a warm tribute to the Rangers No.1.

He recalled being given a grand tour of English football’s most iconic stadiums. He said: “I spoke to Jack before I came to Hibs then a couple of times since then. “We had a good relationship at Stoke.
