Roffe stuff as Kemar’s shirt is all wrong

Roofe scores his first Rangers goal

Kemar Roofe didn’t realise he’d scored his first Rangers goal with the wrong name on the back of his shirt.

But the £4.5 million signing from Anderlecht won’t keep wearing the misspelled top – because his mum wouldn’t like it.

The striker started yesterday’s game again Kilmarnock with Roffe emblazoned on his back.

He was able to see the funny side of things after scoring the opening goal on his first start for the club.

“I realised it when I came off and was told about it. I thought someone was winding me up,” he said.

“But I checked and it was wrong, so I’ll have to get the players to sign it and put it on my wall.

“My mum won’t be happy they are changing my name!”

The 27-year-old won’t be taking kitman Jimmy Bell to task for the error. He went on: “I’m not messing with Jimmy Bell. I want my daily stories from him.

“Every day I come to the training ground to get my kit and I get a story. “I’m playing with about four very creative players, so it’s a joy to play with this team.

“We play with non-stop movement and the combinations between us are good.”

Kilmarnock manager Alex Dyer wasn’t too downhearted by his side’s 2-0 defeat at Ibrox.

He gave the Killie fans some hope that former star Youssouf Mulumbu could be returning to the club.

He said: “I’ve kept in touch with him as I always do.

“Hopefully he will do some training with us this week and then we will see.

“Obviously, we would like more points on the board.

“But the performances have been decent and we need to turn them into results.

“We came up against a side who are playing well at the moment and are top of the league.

“In the first half we started brightly and did well. In the second half, we didn’t really come out.

“We wanted to weather the storm in the first few minutes after half-time but we couldn’t do that. Once they scored we were always going to struggle.”
