Rangers v Kilmarnock Preview
Rangers manager Ally McCoist
“We are in a position at this moment in time where the club is maybe as low as it has been – possibly ever.
“We have to put our trust and our faith in getting the club to a better place and the future will hopefully provide that.
“There is no doubt about it, it’s a low time, the club is at a low ebb.
“So we all have to believe and have faith and hopefully we will all do that and the club will come out of this at the other end.
“Of that I have no doubt and it’s the most important thing.”
Kilmarnock manager Kenny Shiels
“We have a chance to create history.
“We have never beaten Rangers home and away in the same season as an SPL club and that is our mindset, that’s our incentive.
“We are trying to steer away from all the politics.”
