Rangers fans love Allan McGregor's awards speech as Ibrox star appears to be 'MWI'

There's still five games left of this season but after 51 appearances for Rangers in all competitions this season, you can forgive Allan McGregor for letting his hair down.

The Rangers goalkeeper was presented with the John Greig award at the club's player of the year ceremony and it's fair to say he might have enjoyed a pint or two.

McGregor could probably count himself unlucky not to have won the player of the year or player's player of the year award and you'd think he was only narrowly beaten by Alfredo Morelos to both.

His early season performances, in Europe in particular, were a large part of reaching the group stages and narrowly missing out on the last 32.

But the 37-year-old was given the John Greig Achievement award in recognition for his excellent season and fans were delighted.

They also loved his interview with RangersTV following the ceremony.

The shot-stopper was thrilled and praised Ibrox legend Greig throughout but fans noticed he wasn't quite as sharp as normal.

They took to Twitter and although many of the replies are a bit too rude to show, you get an idea of how well thought of McGregor is by the Ibrox support and how delighted they are to have him back at the club.
