Ex-Rangers ace Scott Arfield in second huddle snub at new club

Scott Arfield last night again somewhat snubbed the pre-match huddle at his new club Charlotte FC.

The former Rangers midfielder penned a two-year deal with the MLS club after his Ibrox exit.

However, fans have quickly spotted his Rangers nod in his time at Charlotte with the midfielder not fully participating in the huddle.

Arfield was first spotted with his arms by his side during the huddle before the match against Cincinnati.

And last night, before the loss to CF Montreal, Arfield again stood in the huddle but with his arms by his side.

It comes after Arfield was quizzed on the huddle situation in an interview with the media last week.

Responding to a question on his involvement, or lack of involvement, he said: “I don’t know what that was, but it’s Glasgow so it’s going to become something isn’t it.

“It was one of them. I don’t even know. I don’t think any ex-Rangers player has ever participated in a huddle as such. But it is what it is.

"We are all over the age of 12 and we can get on with things.”

And pushed on whether it's called something different in the States, Arfield laughed: “No, just in a different accent!”
