SHOCKING NEWS;Celtics star suddenly signs new long-term contract deal with Rangers club
Robbie Ure grew up with the dream of starring for boyhood heroes Rangers, but the striker is now making a mark 1,600 miles from Govan.
The 21-year-old, who scored on his Gers debut in a 3-1 win against Queen of the South in 2022 under Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s management, rejected an extended deal at Ibrox to try his hand in European football with Anderlecht nine months later.
Two impressive seasons with the Belgian giant’s reserve side, and one top team game later, he made history by becoming Swedish side IK Sirius’ record signing – for 8m Krona (around £620,000).
Former Celtic star Mark Wilson has secured his position as part of the interim management team of Partick Thistle until the end of the season, following confirmation from the club.
The club’s Under-18 coach Wilson was put in charge of the first team alongside Brian Graham, following the sacking of former boss Kris Doolan. Partick Thistle revealed the news in February, admitting in a statement that it was ‘not a decision the club took lightly’ to part ways with the club favourite.
“Kris is a club legend, revered for his years as a prolific goal-scorer and, more recently, for leading the team through two exciting play-off campaigns as manager,” Thistle said in an official statement.
Wilson joined Graham, the men’s team striker and manager of the women’s side, in taking the reins on an interim basis. The club have since confirmed the duo’s position is solidified until the season comes to a close and a new sporting director arrives to take the next steps.
Partick Thistle kickstarted the week with the announcement that Wilson and Graham will ‘remain in place’ until the end of the current campaign.
Since their shift into the dugout, Partick have enjoyed an unbeaten six-game run in the Scottish Championship, delivering three wins, including a 2-0 victory over Scott Brown’s Ayr United.
