Rangers defender Webster aims to silence doubters

15 September 2010 13:00

Rangers defender Andy Webster has vowed to shut out the sceptics as he bids to return from his latest injury setback.

The centre-back started for Rangers during several pre-season matches but a hamstring injury picked up on the club's trip to Australia has kept him out of all competitive action meaning he has made just one first-team appearance since joining the club from Wigan, initially on loan, in January 2007.

His latest piece of bad luck has seen him written off again in some quarters, but he told the Rangers News: "It`s up to people how they judge me but nobody likes being injured or spending time on the sidelines. I`d much rather be playing in football matches than sitting watching them and not being involved."

He added: "It`s frustrating that that`s not the case at the moment but I`m just focusing on making sure I get myself right and ready to play again.

"I spent a lot of last week running with the physios and hopefully that`s me getting close to being back and involved with the rest of the boys again."
