The 7 Ryan Porteous Rangers controversies that leave fans shocked at Ibrox transfer link

Okay, it might not be Mo Johnston joining Rangers back in 1989 but it's fair to say a section of the Ibrox support have reacted with a bit of shock at the prospect of Ryan Porteous moving to Govan after former Easter Road boss Jim Duffy claimed to have heard on the grapevine that the Scotland stopper could be moving across the M8 to Govan.

Record Sport understands no approach has been made for the 23-year-old who sees his future away from Leith and with the club having previously knocked back a bid of around seven-figure bid from Millwall then landing a full international on a free would represent good business.

And that news will come as a bit of a relief to many Rangers fans. But just why would a large section of the support be so against such a move? Well, it's fair to say the player has a bit of history with the Light Blues and their legions with the diehard Hibee involved in more than a few flashpoint against them in recent years. To be fair, some of it has been a bit of humour and banter like his cheeky post match Premier Sports Cup semi final interview last season when he aimed a dig at Steven Gerrard and it went viral. Still, it's unlikely it would be a popular signing and here Record Sport looks at seven reasons Porteous has become the man Rangers fans love to hate.
