We suggested this might be best for all concerned in our reaction to Rangers' 4-1 win against Livingston yesterday, and now it's confirmed. After failing to make the match squad two games running, with one more winger signed and another on the way when Michael O'Halloran completes his transfer to Rangers, it was probably for the best.

Oduwa showed good flashes of ability but all too often lacked end product - nonetheless, he provided quite a lot of excitement after watching years of dull, pedestrian stuff at Ibrox. For that reason we'll always wish him well with the rest of his career and hope he goes on to be a success wherever he ends up.
