Rangers too big to turn down, says new signing Nicky Law

Nicky Law claimed Rangers were too big to turn down after choosing an Irn-Bru Second Division title challenge ahead of a move to the npower Championship.

Law has signed a three-year contract with Rangers that will begin on September 1, when the Third Division champions’ transfer embargo expires, having already told Motherwell of his intention to leave Fir Park.

Law had talks with several English clubs but the lure of Ibrox and the enthusiasm of boss Ally McCoist proved too strong.

The 25-year-old said: “It was impossible for me to turn down. It was probably a once-in-a-lifetime offer for me to sign here. If you say no to it, you are probably not going to get that opportunity again.

“When I spoke to him (McCoist), I didn’t think I could ever really say no to it. Playing here at Ibrox in front of fantastic crowds, and this crowd is fantastic and the attendances here last season for Third Division football were unbelievable, that was a huge draw for me as well.”
