Robin Propper lashes out over criticism that he 'somehow failed' at Rangers

Robin Propper has lashed out at criticism of his spell at Rangers and insisted his memories will last a lifetime.

The Dutch defender is back at homeland club Twente Enschede after new Ibrox boss Russell Martin indicated he wouldn't be part of his plans this term.

He lasted only a year at Ibrox, but insisted his time in Scottish football was a success.

Propper said: "I completely disagree that I somehow failed at Rangers.

"It was an adventure I wanted to embark on, at a wonderful club with an incredibly rich history. Many Dutch players have played there as well.

"I got to play and score in an Old Firm match for example. That was fantastic.

"Even as a little boy, you know [[Rangers]] v Celtic is a huge, historic match, one that's even watched in the Netherlands.

"It was incredible for me to experience that.

"The lead-up to the matches where the city of Glasgow is 50 per cent Rangers and 50 per cent Celtic was amazing.

"Well, I got to play in five of those games.

"I had a wonderful time both at Rangers and the four of us as a family spent a lovely year in Glasgow. We saw a lot of nature, because Scotland is incredibly beautiful, of course and I played a lot - 43 matches, so it's not like I didn't play."
