RANGERS HIT 10-IN-A-ROW

But co-boss McColl not getting carried away

- ANDY MCGILVRAY

Cambuslang Rangers coboss Paul McColl hailed his side as they won their 10th match in a row with a 10-1 win over Royal Albert, but insists he’s not interested in records.

McColl says it’s all about points, as they chase leaders St Cadoc’s by two points in the West of Scotland League Conference B table, with a game in hand.

But he acknowledg­ed that the feat Rangers have achieved is incredible and will be difficult to match.

Of Camby’s 54 goals this season, striker Scott Williamson has bagged an incredible 23.

McColl says his side could have been even more ruthless against the struggling Stonehouse side, but was happy enough – particular­ly as he gave debuts to under-20 stars Lewis Slivinski and Tony Hampson.

He said: “That’s 10 in a row we’ve won, and I can’t remember the last time that happened – it’s got to be quite a while.

“The scoreline as well, I can’t remember the last time we won a league game with that kind of score – it could be some considerab­le time before that happens again.

“I’m not caring about records, it’s just points, and if we keep getting those we’ll be doing well.

“There’s plenty to go, then the winter kicks in; players play a bit different in the winter, the parks aren’t great, and it’s a different game, so we’re not getting carried away – nothing’s won yet.

“As long as we keep doing what we’re doing we’re fine.

“We played really well and it could have been a wee bit more, but their goalkeeper did well.

“When we’re a couple of goals ahead we’re hard to stop these days, and the boys are looking for goals all the time.

“They’re coming from all over the park, which is good as well.

“Scott is scoring most of them, but there are other guys who are chipping in with a few, and it was a good performanc­e.”

Cambuslang have a break from the league as they travel to Carluke Rovers in the South Challenge Cup and McColl says they will freshen up the side.

He said: “No disrespect to Carluke, but we need to give a game to some boys who haven’t been playing.

“They’re good enough to win the game, so we’re not weakening the team. After that our next game is at home to Kello Rovers, who have lost their manager, so that will be difficult as well.

“We’re just trying to keep this run going and St Cadoc’s are on a great run as well, to be fair.”
