THE axe fell on Mark Warburton at Rangers a year ago this week as he paid the price for his transfer business.

But the ex-Ibrox boss says he is proud some of his signings are shining this season. Here, Record Sport rates his 22 recruits. DANNY WILSON 7 Warburton’s first signing was a key man in the Championsh­ip-winning side. ROB KIERNAN 4 A weak link in the 2016 Scottish Cup Final defeat by Hibs. Now at Southend. WES FODERINGHA­M 8 One of Warburton’s big transfer success stories. ANDY HALLIDAY 5 Was a key man in Warburton’s first season. MARTYN WAGHORN 7 Hit 28 goals in the Championsh­ip. Sold to Ipswich for £250,000. JAMES TAVERNIER 9 Warburton’s best signing, he has been outstandin­g. JASON HOLT 7 Cost only £65,000 to Hearts. Has paid it back. HARRY FORRESTER 4 Failed to produce. On loan at Wimbledon. MACIEJ GOSTOMSKI 0 Signed in January 2016 but left two months later. MICHAEL O’HALLORAN 2 £500,000 signing but things haven’t worked out. JOSH WINDASS 7 Has potential but doesn’t produce best consistent­ly. MATT CROOKS 1 Failed to impress. Now at Northampto­n. JORDAN ROSSITER 2 Signed from Liverpool but has been injury prone.

MATT GILKS 2 Left six months into two-year deal. LEE HODSON 4 Full-back has rarely let Rangers down. JOE DODOO 2 Cost £250,000 from Leicester, not in the plans. JOE GARNER 2 Cost £1.8m but looked like he was in the wrong movie. PHILIPPE SENDEROS 1 Nightmare in 5-1 mauling at Celtic. Never recovered. JAK ALNWICK 3 Reliable enough back-up.
