Mark Warburton: Rangers won't make a fuss over plastic pitch
Mark Warburton will not moan about synthetic surfaces
MARK WARBURTON insists there will be no negativity around Alloa’s artificial surface when he takes Rangers to the Indodrill Stadium today.
 
There have been regular complaints from the Ibrox club about playing on plastic pitches as they have made their way back up through the divisions.
Warburton took his squad for a training session at Alloa’s stadium earlier in the week and while he is no fan of synthetic surfaces, he is determined it will not become an issue. “There will be absolutely no complaints from my squad, before during or after the game,” he said.
“We are looking forward to it. It’s a challenge and there will be no negativity from us.
“I understand these pitches for a financial situation but for me the consistency of product, especially the higher the leagues you go up, is really important.
 
“The players have trained very well, they are in good shape, they have had a strong start to the season and we look to continue that.”
Rangers new boys Dominic Ball, and Nathan Oduwa could come in to contention.
Ball, 20, a defender who can also play in midfield and 19-year-old Oduwa, a left-sided forward, joined from Tottenham on season-long loans on Thursday.
Warburton said: “The loan market is of vital significance but it has to be right for both parties. A lot of work has gone into it and I am delighted that we have got them.
“The Spurs academy has been very productive and it’s good for us to get linked to such clubs.”
