Kenny Miller in Rangers transfer reality check as raging fan delivered on air Leon Balogun contrast

Kenny Miller can see the sense in Rangers bringing back Leon Balogun - as one fan told the former striker it had killed his pre-season buzz.

An injury to academy graduate Leon King has made boss Michael Beale act quick to sign his seventh player of the Ibrox rebuild this summer, Nigerian international Balogun penning a one-year deal. He left Glasgow a year ago and joined QPR, where Beale also signed him. The veteran has arrived to jostle for a central defensive spot with Connor Goldson and co but one punter isn't pleased.

Miller was on Clyde 1 punditry duties as an angry Rangers fan called in to express their disappointment at the news that they felt was rooted in sentimentality. They ranted: "Absolutely dreadful. It's actually put me on a downer at the start of the season. We held onto deadwood in your Kent and Morelos, gave new contacts to Steven Davis, Scott Arfield, who were great servants but were finished. We are continuing to hold on to the past and we are not evolving. We are going back to someone who for me, who is not a good defender, his decision making is shocking, he is full of mistakes and has no pace. I can't fathom why we are going back the way, I think it's a dreadful decision. He's not even been that successful with Rangers."
