Kenny Miller says there's plenty of familiar faces at Rangers who can ensure their season begins to get off the ground. A morale-boosting 3-2 aggregate win over Swiss side Servette in the Champions League third round qualifiers has booked a play-off date with destiny against PSV in a repeat of their 2022 scenario at this stage.

Michael Beale has brought in nine new signings but performances have been inconsistent in matches, with a tough first half in Geneva responded to with a sturdy second 45.

Defeat to Kilmarnock on the opening Premiership matchday also sparked punter fears but one fan has been left sympathetic to the situation.

They called into Clyde SSB to say that Rangers team are still gelling, and that hitting the ground running in Europe isn't always a possibility, even if there would be 'hell to pay' if Servette eliminated them, and leeway should be applied amid a major rebuild.
