Steven Davis set for Rangers sitdown over future as interim boss catches breath after 'out of the blue' appointment

Steven Davis admits he’s got no idea where he’ll be or what he’ll be doing in six months’ time. But the Ibrox caretaker boss is confident the Rangers side he’s been in charge of these last seven days will be in a far better place by then than the dark spot he found them in.
