I'm no Russell Martin clone, insists Rangers boss Danny Rohl... I have a Plan A, Plan B and Plan C!

Danny Rohl is confident he can quickly convince Rangers fans he is no coaching clone of his failed predecessor Russell Martin.

A section of the Ibrox club’s support raised concerns over Rohl’s credentials before his appointment as their 21st permanent manager at the start of this week.

Thursday night’s 3-0 defeat away to Norwegian side Brann in his first game in charge exposed the scale of the challenge he faces.

But the 36-year-old German, who only moved into frontline management for the first time at Sheffield Wednesday two years ago, has challenged the perception he has a similar tactical approach to Martin, who was sacked after just 123 days in charge.
